    Ep. 28| Stop Calling People Your Rabbi—Jesus Said You Only Have One Teacher

    What if the mentors you're following are leading you straight into idolatry?What if the business advice you're taking—the manifestation practices, the fake money on your walls, the worship of wealth—is actually pulling you away from God?What if Jesus already warned you about this 2,000 years ago in Matthew 23—and you just didn't realize He was talking about your business mentors?In this short but razor-sharp episode, Josiah Ryan breaks down Matthew 23:8-12, where Jesus tells His followers: "Don't let anyone call you rabbi, for you only have one teacher. And don't address anyone here on earth as father, for only God in heaven is your father. And don't let anyone call you teacher, for you only have one teacher, the Messiah."This isn't just a religious lesson. This is a business warning.Who are you calling your rabbi right now? Who are you calling your teacher? Is it the guy driving a Lambo who's $250K in debt trying to rob Peter to pay Paul? Is it the mentor who taught you to put fake money all over your house so you'd "manifest abundance"? Is it the pastor, the YouTuber, the course seller, the influencer who's teaching you to chase wealth instead of God?Jesus said you're supposed to have ONE teacher. And it's not them.What you'll learn in this episode:Why Jesus warned against calling anyone "rabbi," "father," or "teacher"—and what that means for your business mentors How false teachers crush people with unbearable demands and never lift a finger to ease the burden (Matthew 23:4) Why manifestation is a pagan practice designed to manipulate the future instead of trusting God's will How putting fake money around your house trains your brain to worship wealth—not God Why the greatest lessons and blessings of life come from NOT getting what you want The difference between being blessed and being an idolater who worships money Why your mentors might be leading you into bondage instead of freedom How to audit who you're listening to and whether they're worshiping God or wealth Why following Jesus will make people call you "taboo," "dangerous," and "heretical"—and why that's a sign you're on the right pathThis episode is short, but it cuts deep. If you've been following mentors who worship money, if you've been taught to manifest, hustle, and chase wealth at all costs—this episode will wake you up.Matthew 23:11-12 — "The greatest among you must be a servant. But those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."You can follow the world's way of doing things, or you can follow God's way. But you can't do both.Subscribe to The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan and join a community of entrepreneurs who are rejecting false teachers and following the ONE teacher—Jesus Christ.🎧 Listen & Subscribe: 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q8k55u0WeTC7mepZi98H8?si=4a74c08e182e48dc 👉 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-christian-business-podcast-with-josiah-ryan/id1832524666📲 Follow Us: 👉 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/ChristianBizPodcast👉 X (Twitter) → https://x.com/ChristianBizPod🎵 Theme music by Transistor.fm

    Ep. 27| Become Your Own Customer and Watch Your Business Explode

    What if God gave you your entrepreneurial fire for a reason?What if the creativity, the independence, the refusal to settle—what if all of it came from Him?What if your business isn't just about making money—it's about fulfilling God's purpose through your gifts, skills, and talents?In this episode, Josiah Ryan breaks down one of the most powerful business lessons he's ever learned: God lives in your creativity. And when you stop optimizing for money and start building products for yourself—products you actually need—everything changes.This isn't theory. Josiah has lived both sides. For years, he ran his digital marketing agency the world's way: optimizing for money, building what was profitable, doing what he was taught. And it worked. He made money. But he didn't have happiness. He didn't have joy. He didn't have passion. He was stuck, miserable, and drowning in problems.Then he met his business partners. And together, they started building AI software that solved the exact problem Josiah had in his own agency. They became their own customers. They stopped optimizing for money and started obsessing over creating the greatest product that ever existed.And now? They can't keep up with demand. Sales are easy. The business is exploding. Because they're getting real results for real clients.This is the cheat code: become your own customer. Solve the problem you have. Build the product you need. And God will meet you in that creativity.What you'll learn in this episode:Why God lives in your creativity—and how He works in you to will and to act for His good purpose (Philippians 2:13) The biblical precedent for God filling people with wisdom, understanding, and skill for creative work (Exodus 31:1-5) Why being an entrepreneur isn't just a personality trait—it's a calling from God How the world teaches you to optimize for money instead of people—and why that leads to misery The difference between building products for profit and building products for yourself (your customer) Why Josiah's agency was stuck at slow organic growth when he optimized for money—and why it exploded when he became his own customer How to stop feeling guilty about not being a missionary or pastor—God called you to business for a reason Why the best way to solve your customer's problem is to BE the customer who has the need How to build teams and communities that create exponential good for the world Why business is all about people—and why taking care of people makes the money followIf you've been optimizing your business for money, if you've been building what's profitable instead of what's great, if you've been feeling stuck or miserable or like you're missing your purpose—this episode will change everything.God gave you your gifts, skills, talents, and desires for a reason. He lives in your creativity. And when you start using those gifts to solve real problems for real people—starting with yourself—you're going to see breakthrough you never imagined. Philippians 2:13 — "For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill His good purpose." 🎧 Listen & Subscribe: 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q8k55u0WeTC7mepZi98H8?si=4a74c08e182e48dc 👉 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-christian-business-podcast-with-josiah-ryan/id1832524666📲 Follow Us: 👉 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/ChristianBizPodcast👉 X (Twitter) → https://x.com/ChristianBizPod🎵 Theme music by Transistor.fm

    Ep. 26| Stop Asking to Get Rich—Start Asking God to Use You

    What if the reason you're not successful yet isn't because you're failing—it's because it's just not time?What if God's timing is perfect, even when it takes 16 years?In this short but powerful episode, Josiah Ryan shares his raw, personal testimony of what it actually takes to become an "overnight success" in business. Spoiler: it takes 16 years. And a lot of failure. And hurricanes. And business partners who disappear. And agencies that burn you out. And pivots. And mistakes. And loss.But here's what makes this episode so powerful: Josiah is finally on the other side. After 16 years of grinding, praying, failing, and rebuilding, everything is finally taking off. The second agency is working. The software company is launching. The right people are showing up. And it all happened the moment he stopped asking to get rich—and started asking God to use him.This is an exhortation (a fancy word for encouragement) for every entrepreneur who feels like they're behind, stuck, or failing. You're not. You're just not there yet. And that's okay.What you'll learn in this episode:Why Josiah's 16-year entrepreneurial journey finally took off—and what changed The difference between asking to get rich and asking God to use your gifts, skills, and talents for His good Why Colonel Sanders spent 40-50 years "failing" before becoming an overnight success What it means to ask for anything "in Jesus's name"—and why alignment with God matters more than the request itself Why those who love money will never have enough (Ecclesiastes 5) How losing everything—life savings, business, business partner—was the turning point that led to breakthrough Why God gives and takes away to impart wisdom and grow you closer to Him What it means to "take care of the Father's business" so He takes care of yours (Matthew 6:33) How to stop looking back and start serving the Lord 24/7, 365If you're feeling like things aren't working out, this episode will remind you: it's probably just not time yet. And that's not a failure. That's God's timing.Ecclesiastes 5 tells us that if you take joy in your work and use your gifts, skills, and talents for God, you'll sleep good at night and won't even have time to worry about the old days. You'll be so dedicated to serving the Lord that your life is going to go great.Stop asking to get rich. Start asking God to use you.Subscribe to The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan and join a community of entrepreneurs who are trusting God's timing—even when it takes 16 years.🎧 Listen & Subscribe: 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q8k55u0WeTC7mepZi98H8?si=4a74c08e182e48dc 👉 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-christian-business-podcast-with-josiah-ryan/id1832524666📲 Follow Us: 👉 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/ChristianBizPodcast👉 X (Twitter) → https://x.com/ChristianBizPod🎵 Theme music by Transistor.fm

    Ep. 25| The Day I Met Jesus - The Original Testimony. Finally on the Podcast.

    This episode is different. And Josiah wanted you to know that before you press play.For Episode 25 of The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan, we are doing something that has never been done on this show. What you are about to hear is not a new recording. This is the original testimony — captured by Josiah shortly after he gave his life to Christ in the summer of 2023. Before the podcast existed. Before the brand existed. Before any of this was built.This is where it started.In his own words, fresh from one of the most defining moments of his life, Josiah tells the full story. A childhood defined by constant moves and instability. The death of a cousin who meant everything to him. A descent into drugs, alcohol, and a crowd so entrenched in the occult that Josiah witnessed possession, demonic activity, and what he describes as invisible forces physically throwing people — with his own eyes. A stint at Teen Challenge, a Christ-centered rehab, where he watched some of the most broken men alive — including a trafficker and pimp in his 80s — hand everything over to Jesus and walk out transformed.And then July 27, 2023. Doing the dishes. A voice. His knees hit the floor. And a vision that showed him two businesses, a darkening world, thousands of tanks moving in preparation for something massive, spiritual warfare on a scale most people are not ready to face — and one word that has driven every single episode of this show since:God is calling strong Christian men to lead.This recording also captures the exact moment God gave Josiah the name of this podcast during a 21-day spiritual fast — and the story of how that name was still available when he searched for it minutes after prayer.Twenty-five episodes in, you are finally hearing the moment that made all of it possible.Josiah recorded a special intro for this episode so you understand exactly what you are listening to and why it matters. Then you hear the testimony exactly as it was captured — raw, real, and anointed.Subscribe to The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you listen.

And suddenly, he had no choice but to trust God and go all in on the software.One year later, he met the exact person he needed. The guy with the network, the resources, the skills to take his product to the moon. And now?

    Ep. 23| Are You More Like Judas or Peter? (The Answer Will Surprise You)

    What if everything you thought you knew about Judas and Peter was wrong?What if Judas wasn't just greedy—and Peter wasn't just a coward?What if they were both guilty of the exact same sin—and what if you're guilty of it too?In this episode, Josiah Ryan breaks down one of the most misunderstood stories in Scripture: the betrayal and denial of Jesus by Judas and Peter. But this isn't the Sunday school version. This is the deep theological context most people miss—and it has everything to do with how you're running your business right now.Judas didn't betray Jesus just for money. He was trying to force God's hand. He thought Jesus was moving too slow. He thought if he could just put Jesus in a position where He had to prove He was the Messiah, the kingdom would finally kick off. So he took God's plan into his own hands—and it ended in destruction.Peter didn't deny Jesus three times because he was a coward. He was inside the complex trying to come up with a plan. He was trying to do something—anything—to fix the situation. But in doing so, he was taking God's timing into his own hands. And Jesus told him exactly what would happen.Both Judas and Peter made the same mistake: they didn't accept God's will. They didn't trust God's timing. They tried to force things instead of surrendering.And if you're honest, you're probably doing the same thing in your business right now.What you'll learn in this episode:Why Judas wasn't just greedy—he was trying to force God to be the earthly Messiah he expected The historical and theological context behind Judas's betrayal that most people miss Why Peter wasn't a coward—he was inside the enemy's complex trying to come up with a plan What it means that "it was determined the Son of Man must die, but woe to the one who betrays Him" (Luke 22:22) The difference between God's sovereign will and human choice—and why both are true How trying to force God's hand in your business leads to destruction What it means to "accept your lot in life" (Ecclesiastes 5) and why that's the key to peace Why you can't force God to do things on your timeline—even if your plan looks better How to stop taking God's plans into your own hands and start trusting His timingThis is deep, challenging, theological content that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about betrayal, denial, and surrender.If you've been trying to force God to move faster, open doors that are closed, or build the business you want instead of the one He's calling you to—this episode will set you free.God's plans are not our own. God's timing is not our own. And if we're trying to force God to fit into places He's not going, we're going to end up exactly where we're not supposed to be.Subscribe to The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan and join a community of entrepreneurs who are surrendering control and trusting God's will over their own.🎧 Listen & Subscribe: 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q8k55u0WeTC7mepZi98H8?si=4a74c08e182e48dc 👉 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-christian-business-podcast-with-josiah-ryan/id1832524666📲 Follow Us: 👉 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/ChristianBizPodcast👉 X (Twitter) → https://x.com/ChristianBizPod🎵 Theme music by Transistor.fm

    Ep. 22| 10 Lies About Money the World Sold You (And What the Bible Actually Says)

    If you've ever felt like the world's financial advice is designed to trap you, stress you out, and keep you enslaved to money—you're right. It is.In this episode, Josiah Ryan exposes 10 pieces of foolish money advice the world teaches—and breaks down what the Bible actually says about wealth, debt, greed, and freedom.This isn't theory. Josiah has lived every one of these traps. He's been the guy obsessing over his hourly rate 20 times a day. He's taken on massive debt because a mentor told him to "stay hungry." He's faked it till he made it. He's chased shortcuts. He's tied his self-worth to his income. And he's watched it all lead to destruction.Then God stripped it away. And in that breaking, Josiah found freedom.Now, on the other side, he's seeing his business restored faster than ever—but he's not chasing money anymore. He's chasing God. And that's the difference between bondage and freedom.What you'll learn in this episode:Why "live beyond your means to stay hungry" is a demonic trap that leads to misery What the Bible says about debt—and why "the borrower is slave to the lender" (Proverbs 22:7) The lie of "get rich quick" and why shortcuts always end in destruction Why "fake it till you make it" builds a life you'll hate—even if you succeed How the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:9-10) Why your self-worth has nothing to do with your income—and everything to do with being made in the image of God What Jesus meant when He said "use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves" (Luke 16:9) Why hoarding wealth is selfish—and why God gave you money to share, not stockpile The difference between the world's financial system (pride, pressure, shortcuts) and God's wisdom (stewardship, patience, diligence, freedom) How to break free from the mental models the world has brainwashed you intoIf you're exhausted from chasing money, stressed about debt, or trapped in a life you built to impress people you don't even like—this episode will set you free.The world says leverage everything, pretend you're rich, and chase money. The Bible says be faithful, avoid bondage, grow slowly, and seek God first.Matthew 6:33 — "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you."Subscribe to The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan and join a community of entrepreneurs who are breaking free from the world's financial lies and building businesses the kingdom way.🎧 Listen & Subscribe: 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q8k55u0WeTC7mepZi98H8?si=4a74c08e182e48dc 👉 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-christian-business-podcast-with-josiah-ryan/id1832524666📲 Follow Us: 👉 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/ChristianBizPodcast👉 X (Twitter) → https://x.com/ChristianBizPod🎵 Theme music by Transistor.fm

    Ep. 21| Your Business Is Meaningless (And Why That's Actually Good News)

    What if everything you're chasing in business is meaningless?What if all the hustle, the growth goals, the income targets, and the obsession with doubling your revenue is just "chasing after the wind"?That's not a discouraging message. It's a liberating one. And it comes straight from Ecclesiastes 5.In this episode, Josiah Ryan walks through one of the most powerful—and most convicting—passages in Scripture for Christian business owners. He breaks down why chasing money will never be enough, why wealth can't buy peace, and why the people who hoard riches end up frustrated, discouraged, and angry.This isn't theory. Josiah shares raw testimony about how he used to ask himself 10-20 times a day, "What's my hourly rate? What's my income level? How do I double it?" He was obsessed with money—even as a new Christian—and didn't realize he had a money idol running his life.Then God stripped it all away. The hurricanes. The business collapse. The loss of everything. And in that breaking, Josiah found something he never had before: true peace, true joy, and freedom from the need to chase wealth.Now, on the other side, his business is growing faster than ever—but he doesn't care about the money anymore. He cares about honoring God and doing right by people. And ironically, that's when the breakthrough came.What you'll learn in this episode:Why "those who love money will never have enough" (Ecclesiastes 5:10) How constantly thinking about income destroys your peace and your relationship with God Why the Holy Spirit reveals idols in your life over time—not all at once The difference between working for money and working as an act of worship How hoarding wealth harms the saver (Ecclesiastes 5:13) Why the rich seldom get a good night's sleep—and what that reveals about the cost of chasing wealth What it means to "accept your lot in life" and why that brings more peace than any dollar amount How God keeps people "so busy enjoying life that they have no time to brood over the past" Why losing everything might be the greatest blessing God ever gives youIf you're exhausted from chasing income goals, stressed about money, frustrated that there's never enough, or living under a cloud of anxiety about your business—this episode will set you free.Ecclesiastes is straight-up wisdom for your business, your money, and your life.

    Are you struggling to know when to correct your team, when to help someone, and when to just walk away?If you're a Christian business owner or leader, you've probably wrestled with the tension between judgment and compassion. You don't want to be harsh—but you also can't ignore dysfunction. You want to help people—but sometimes your help gets trampled and you get attacked for it.This episode breaks down Matthew 7:1-6 in a way that will completely reframe how you lead, correct, and protect your peace as a business owner.Josiah Ryan walks through one of the most misunderstood passages in Scripture—"Do not judge, or you too will be judged"—and shows you what Jesus actually meant. This isn't a command to ignore problems or avoid accountability. It's an instruction manual for how to judge rightly, lead with compassion, and discern when someone is ready to receive help.You'll also learn what "casting pearls before swine" means in a business context—and why trying to help people who don't want help will get you trampled and attacked every single time.What you'll learn in this episode:What Jesus actually meant by "Do not judge"—and why context changes everything How to judge with the right measure so you're judged with mercy, not condemnation The step-by-step process Jesus gives for helping someone remove the "speck" from their eye Why you need to remove the plank from your own eye before you can lead others well What "casting pearls before swine" means for business owners and leaders How to discern when someone is ready for help vs. when they'll trample your advice and turn on you Why Jesus only healed people who wanted to be healed—and what that means for your leadership The connection between Matthew 7 and being led by the Holy Spirit in businessIf you're tired of getting burned by people you tried to help, if you're exhausted from correcting team members who don't want to change, or if you're struggling to lead with both truth and compassion—this episode is for you.This is biblical leadership training you won't get in any executive coaching program.

    Ep. 19| Stop Believing the Lie: You Didn't Miss Your Opportunity

    Are you stuck replaying business decisions you wish you could take back? Beating yourself up for the hire you didn't make, the deal that fell through, or the opportunity you "missed"?This episode will completely reframe how you see setbacks, delays, and disappointments in business. Josiah Ryan breaks down the biblical principle that there are no missed opportunities in God's kingdom—only redirected steps that are part of a sovereign plan you can't see yet.Drawing from Proverbs 16:9, Genesis 50:20, and Ecclesiastes 3:1, Josiah walks through why the world's approach to business—scarcity, regret, and scrambling—is fundamentally opposed to God's design for your life and work. He shares raw, personal testimony about how the hurricanes that destroyed his business turned out to be the greatest blessing of his life, removing idols he didn't even know he had and repositioning him for a partnership that's now changing everything.If you've been living with regret, feeling like you're behind, or wondering if you made the wrong call, this episode will help you see God's sovereign hand in every closed door, every "failure," and every pivot you've had to make.What you'll learn in this episode:Why your perfect plan failing might be God's perfect protection How to stop emotionally spiraling over business decisions that didn't pan out The difference between the world's cruel way of doing business and God's kingdom way Why putting people first—not profit—unlocks God's favor in your business How to identify and eliminate money idols that are quietly running your life The real reason God allows betrayal, loss, and hardship in business What it means that "a man's heart devises his ways, but the Lord directs his steps" How to trust God's timing when everything feels delayed or derailedThis is a faith-building, perspective-shifting episode for Christian business owners who are ready to stop living in regret and start walking in the confidence that God is sovereignly directing every step—even the ones that feel like setbacks.If you're tired of the isolation, the pressure, and the worldly hustle that leaves you empty, this podcast is your community.

    Ep. 18| Recruiting Is the Real Job of a Business Owner (Part 1)

    Most small business owners think their biggest problem is sales, marketing, or cash flow.It’s not.In this episode of The Christian Business Podcast with Josiah Ryan, Josiah breaks down why recruiting is the most important skill a business owner can develop — and how failing to master it keeps you trapped in the day-to-day.Josiah explains the leverage behind hiring the right employees, how buying your time back changes everything, and why one trained person can outperform the owner over the long run. He walks through the difference between employees and department heads, what to look for when hiring, and why coachability and ownership mentality matter more than raw skill.This episode also speaks directly to young professionals and employees, revealing a massive opportunity most people are missing: thousands of business owners from the baby boomer generation are retiring, and many have no one to sell their businesses to. For those willing to work, learn, and lead, there has never been a better time to step into ownership.Josiah also delivers a clear challenge to business owners: either commit to being an A++++ leader who builds people and culture, or stop pretending you want to grow.
