Faith Isn’t Plan B: How to Build a Business That Relies on God, Not Just Grit

Season 1 | Episode 8

Are you building your business in your own strength? Or are you inviting God into the process from the start?

In this episode, Jen unpacks what it really means to build with faith as the foundation—not the backup plan. You’ll hear personal stories, Biblical truths, and real-talk reflections on what happens when we trade control for trust.

Whether you’re leading a business, launching a new idea, or navigating a season of uncertainty, this episode will remind you: You don’t have to carry it all. Faith isn’t weakness—it’s strategy.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Why faith needs to be more than a fallback
  • How to invite God into the practical parts of your business
  • The power of surrender and rest in a hustle-heavy world
  • Reframing faith as your leadership advantage—not your last resort
  • 4 practical ways to shift from grit to God-led strategy

Take this with you:

You’re not just called to build—you’re called to build with Him.

Faith isn’t Plan B. It’s the blueprint.
