Build a Better Business. Become a Better Leader. Do It God’s Way.
What if some of the best business advice you will ever receive was written nearly 3,000 years ago?
The book of Proverbs is filled with practical wisdom about leadership, money, work, planning, relationships, communication, integrity, decision-making and success.
Ancient Wisdom Business School takes those timeless principles and applies them directly to the challenges Christian businesspeople face today.
If you want to grow your business without compromising your faith, this program was created for you.
BUSINESS WISDOM THAT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME
There is no shortage of business advice.
New books. New gurus. New strategies. New trends.
Some of it works.
Some of it doesn’t.
But the principles found in Scripture have endured for thousands of years.
Ancient Wisdom Business School combines the practical wisdom of Proverbs with real-world business experience to help you answer two important questions:
How can I become more successful in business?
How can I honor God while doing it?
You should not have to choose between the two.

They need wisdom
“I know what it is like to be in the trenches building a business while also trying to represent God well. That is why I created Ancient Wisdom Business School. Proverbs is what I like to call ‘God’s Little Book for Success.’ It contains extraordinary wisdom about work, money, relationships, leadership, planning, communication and character. My goal is to help you put that wisdom to work in your business and your life.”
