Small Business Support/Prayer Group

Small Business owners (both men and women) meeting together with support, love, encouragement, and seeking God.

Meeting on every other Thursday

Next Meeting - Thursday, March 1, 2012 - 7:00 pm

Next Meeting Countdown Clock:

Small Business Owners...

Join us in a casual, relaxed atmosphere and share how we successfully apply Biblical principles to our businesses. The group is comprised of both men and women.

You are not alone.  Wherever you are in your spiritual journey or business, we will lift each other up with our shared troubles, as well as our triumphs. 

We will learn how to give the Lord our troubles and praise for our triumphs!

There is power in being obedient to God in our businesses and our lives. When we conduct ourselves with integrity and obedience He gives us creative solutions and abundance. We must be diligent in our faith and use our God-given abilities daily. Then we will walk in His blessing.

 

We can rejoice too when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength and character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.

Romans 5: 3-4

 

"For I know the plans I have for you,“ declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Jeremiah 29:11

Testimonials...

“God was present with us” is probably my best description of our first three meetings.  I actually came the first time just to be of support to Terri and Glenn since they were just beginning this life-group. I was surprised to come away convinced that surely “I” had been the most blessed of the group by what I heard and experienced through the interaction and personal testimonies. I am sure that the others came away with the same conclusion and maybe even surprised that God had used them to be of encouragement to some one else. This is what I understand to be “true fellowship in Christ.” I John 1:3 “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.” 

We definitely have a great thing going here!  Let’s keep this up!

All because of Jesus, Pastor Carl Sexton

 

"I wanted to thank you for inviting me to be a part of the Small Business Support/Prayer Group. I feel it has helped me to confirm the direction that I felt God was moving me with my life and business plans. It seems each week for me I receive clearer insight into where God wants me to focus my energy and resources to place our company in position to succeed based on Biblical principles. It is as if God has placed certain individuals at each meeting to answer the questions I have been unable to find the answers for in my daily routine. I know that as I continue to surround myself with like minded Christians, they will sharpen me and keep me on a disciplined path."  Daniel B

"I've attended the first three Small Business Support/Prayer meetings. My overall experience has been one of listening to others share their heartfelt and honest feelings about what small business ownership is like for them from week to week. A large number are experiencing valleys in their businesses, but have not been afraid to admit it. They've confessed their fears and also their trust in the Lord. The result is one of comfort and encouragement for all. This type of confession is important for living according to God's word by faith. We are challenged to trust in the Lord, to wait patiently at times and do business as Christ would. Such a high calling might not be fulfilled without the help of such a community."  -  James C

"We really enjoyed the meeting on Thursday, and felt it was such a valuable experience. I feel that all business leaders need to have a support system and be in prayer. This group is a powerful way to connect with others and the Lord. The people in the group are all wonderful and focused on service to others. We look forward to getting to know everyone in the group on a deeper level, and will continue to attend. Thank you so much for starting this group. It's much needed." - Kevin and Marybeth H

 

"Thanks for orchestrating such a conducive atmosphere of support and encouragement. As a minister and small business owner, I find myself pouring into the lives of others, constantly serving, and consistently pouring out my life to help. Your Small Business Support and Prayer Group opened up an amazing door of fellowship and friendship. Thank you for the opportunity to share with others who love God and who want their life to count for His glory. I look forward to our future meetings together and for the privilege of fellowshipping with believers who share similar passions to honor God with their life." Julie G
