Today I'm sitting down with Myrra Kate and talking allll about how we run our Kingdom Businesses in a way that goes against society.⁣

⁣

We dive into:⁣

🔸Buying into the capitalistic and worldly desires and strategies⁣

🔸Struggling to find our space within the noisy online coaching industry⁣

🔸How we discern what we should do that’s aligned with God’s purpose for us⁣

🔸How we’re called to surrender in faith AND action⁣

🔸Why prayer (even about the “small” things) is powerful in business⁣

🔸Our unhealthy societal obsession with control and planning⁣

🔸Cultivating the seasons of “waiting”⁣

🔸An encouragement because Jesus lived, died, fought and won the fight for us!⁣

⁣

Quotable moments: ⁣

🔸“When we have the thought of should I invest in coaches? Do this course? Take this program? And then you remember, those are just resources and I have to first go to The Source to get what I need in the first place.”⁣

🔸“The question is where is this leading me to? What destination is this taking me to?”⁣

In today's episode, Chelsea and I dive into a topic that's close to our heart - Faith & Social Justice Advocacy. We cover:⁣

⁣

👉The irony that Christianity only spread because the oppressors (Roman Empire) took on Christianity⁣

👉The problem with the White-saviour mentality⁣

👉Actionable steps to reconcile the Church’s history with racism - including events and ideas to be friends with the marginalised in order to give them Jesus’ love⁣

👉How to peel back the layers of whitewashed and colonialist conditioning in our faith⁣

👉Why bravery and courage is needed to examine what went wrong when building upon the church’s foundations ⁣

👉What is necessary to have REAL change - the challenges of leadership and how leadership needs to act⁣

👉Why complacency is dangerous - in faith and in regards to racism ⁣

👉Encouragements and hope that we have amidst the conversation around racism⁣

What is the system?⁣

⁣

- By definition (thanks Google): a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network; a complex whole.⁣

⁣

It's not some evil mysterious force in the sky... it's in all of us!⁣

institutions, organisations + individuals, no one is exempt.⁣

⁣

Why are we talking about it now?⁣

⁣

- the failure and inherent faults in the system are coming to light for the wider population⁣

- it's a well-known concept in academic circles and activism but not in the mainstream because it's not something those in power want us to know about!⁣

- people are just waking up to it - and you’re already here and learning!⁣

⁣

How does it affect you?⁣

⁣

- School, media, family, religion⁣

- Conditions us + seeps into our subconscious⁣

- We’ve been conditioned to believe all of this so we need to unlearn it!⁣
