Stop Saying “That’s Not My Job”

I just returned from Switzerland, and one theme kept surfacing in every conversation with business leaders — delay, disappointment, and discomfort.

Here’s what I realized:
Sometimes, what we call 'delay' is actually God preparing us.
And sometimes what we call “not my job” is exactly where God wants to grow us.

This week’s podcast shares three powerful stories, from Jesus, the Levites, and Mordecai, that will challenge how you view responsibility, discomfort, and Kingdom purpose.

Takeaway

God isn’t waiting for you to have it all together. He shows up in the middle of your stress, noise, deadlines, and family mess. The question isn’t “Is this my job?” It’s “God, what are You doing here, and how can I say yes?”

 

Challenge for the Week

  1. Ask God where you’ve been avoiding discomfort.
  2. Say yes to what feels inconvenient.
  3. Mentor someone—or get mentored. Don’t do this journey alone.

But sometimes the very thing that makes you feel unqualified is what keeps you dependent on Him—and that dependence may be exactly what the assignment requires. Key Tak...
You Don't Have an Employee Problem. You Have a Disciple-Making Problem
What if your employee problem is actually a disciple-making opportunity? As a business leader, it’s easy to focus on hiring, managing, correcting, and rewarding people. But what about intentionally developing them? In our latest conversation with Dave Buehring, founder of LionShare, we explore what it looks like to see the people you lead as part of the stewardship God has entrusted to you. A f...
You Are Part of This
After 15 years of Heaven in Business, one thing is becoming increasingly clear: information alone isn’t enough. We need relationship, discipleship, and people to walk alongside us. Following Jesus in the intersection of faith, family, and business can be messy. There is pressure, conflict, correction, failure, growth, and what Andy calls “covenant friction.” But often, that friction is exactly ...
