Stop Separating Your Faith From Your Business

from Kingdom Entrepreneur Hosted by Ray Young

What does it really mean to follow God as a Christian entrepreneur, business owner, or marketplace leader? In this episode of Kingdom Entrepreneur with Ray Young, Keith Toogood shares how God used football failure, business pressure, financial famine, and closed doors to teach him deeper dependence, obedience, and kingdom purpose. If you’ve ever wondered how to bring faith into your business without being pushy, how to hear God in business decisions, or how to keep trusting God when your business feels like it’s falling apart, this conversation will challenge and encourage you. Keith shares his journey from playing football at Texas Tech to building businesses, launching Boom: Business Operating on Mission, and learning that marketplace ministry is not just for pastors or church staff. It is for every believer willing to steward their calling, their company, their resources, and their influence for the Kingdom of God. This episode is for Christian entrepreneurs, business leaders, founders, builders, and anyone who wants to stop separating faith from work and start living with eternal impact. Highlights: → Keith shares how a missed kick at Texas Tech exposed people-pleasing and helped him learn identity, humility, and dependence on God. → You’ll hear why hard seasons in business can become spiritual training grounds, especially when success, money, or plans do not work out the way you expected. → This conversation explains why business is ministry, how Christian leaders can bring faith into the marketplace with wisdom and gentleness, and why God may use business people to advance His Kingdom. → Keith also talks about prayer, hearing from God, testing decisions against Scripture, finding mentors, and staying faithful even when the results are slow or unseen.
