About Building A Business That Honors God Without Losing Your Family with Annie Ward

from Rooted & Rising: Growth from the Greenhouse · host E's Greenhouse

A business can be your dream, your plan to provide, and the place you expect God to “bless” in obvious ways, until it doesn’t work. We sit down with Annie Ward to talk about what happens when you do the right things, pray, spend the money, put in the work, and the business still closes. Instead of treating that moment like proof you failed or missed God, we unpack how a closed season can actually be protection, redirection, and formation.We get practical about faith-based entrepreneurship and Christian finances: why providing for your family is good, why creating jobs matters, and why God’s principles can look different from the world’s pressure to chase bigger numbers. We talk about keeping kids and marriage centered, resisting the temptation to carry provider anxiety, and learning to hold plans with open hands. Along the way we share stories of staying out of debt, wrestling with tithing when the budget feels impossible, and discovering that generosity is less about a formula and more about surrender and worship.If you’re trying to build a Christian business, recover from a failed business, or trust God for financial provision, this conversation will meet you with honesty and hope. Listen through to the closing prayer, then share this with a friend who needs courage for their next step, subscribe for more, and leave a review telling us where you’re choosing open-handed trust right now.We love to hear from you!
