Why Business Fails and What NOT to Do

What do fallen leaders, failed companies, and the Book of Judges have in common?
More than you think.

This week, Andy returns from a whirlwind international journey asking one question:
“God, what are You doing—and how do we align with it?”

Back in Tennessee, with a new base being established and momentum building, Andy reflects deeply on why the mighty fall—in business, ministry, and life. Drawing from the sobering insights of Jim Collins' How the Mighty Fall, Dr. Henry Cloud's Necessary Endings, and the repeating leadership cycle in Judges, this message is a wake-up call for every leader who wants to finish well.

And the challenge is clear:

Don’t wait for a crisis to course-correct.
Cut your own hair before it’s cut for you.

🔥 Next Steps for You:

Reflect – Is there something in your life or leadership that needs pruning?

Re-align – Ask God what consecration looks like for you in this season.

Lead Differently – Lead from presence, not pressure. From surrender, not striving.

Share – Forward this to someone you lead or love. It may save their future.

Let’s be leaders who don’t just look strong—we walk in true strength by walking closely with God.

The Best Culture-Change Workshop I Have Experienced
Most leaders talk about culture. Few actually know how to change it. That’s why I sat down with Steve Gandara of ExcellentCultures.com - a man who’s helped transform organizations like Toyota, Microsoft, and Subway by uncovering the hidden beliefs that drive behavior and implement a data-drive process that produces change (Yes, that's Romans 12:2 but don't spoil the secret). Steve and I had a s...
