CALLED TO BUILD: 365 Days of Christian Wisdom for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners is a daily devotional created for Christians who face the opportunities, responsibilities, pressures, and difficult decisions that come with entrepreneurship and business ownership.
Business challenges more than our professional abilities. It tests our character. How do we respond when money is tight? How do we treat employees when mistakes are made? What happens to our values when a profitable opportunity conflicts with our principles? How do we handle success without becoming prideful—and failure without losing hope?
Called to Build brings Christian faith into these everyday realities.
Each day combines a carefully selected passage from the Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition of 1899, with a practical reflection connecting Scripture to the life of an entrepreneur. Every devotional concludes with an Action for Today and a Closing Prayer, helping readers move from biblical wisdom to practical Christian living.
Throughout the year, readers explore virtues essential to both Christian character and responsible business leadership, including faith, integrity, honesty, wisdom, discernment, courage, perseverance, patience, diligence, stewardship, humility, gratitude, generosity, compassion, justice, self-control, servant leadership, ethical decision-making, and dependence on God.
Called to Build is not based on the idea that faith guarantees financial success. Businesses experience growth and setbacks, opportunities and disappointments, good decisions and mistakes. Instead, this devotional asks a more important question:
How can I remain faithful to Christ while building, leading, and operating my business?
Designed to be read one day at a time, Called to Build is ideal for entrepreneurs, small-business owners, founders, independent professionals, and Christian business leaders who want their faith to influence not only what they believe, but also how they lead, serve customers, manage money, treat people, make decisions, and define success.
Your business may be something you build.
Your character is something you build every day
