Are you spending time every day with God?
In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Jay discuss:
- Learning the perils of debt early.
- Succeeding in real estate without debt leverage.
- Living intentionally.
- Pray first, do second.
Key Takeaways:
- Grow slowly, invest in portfolios, and work with partners - these are some ways you can continue to grow your business using Biblical principles to stay out of debt.
- Walk by faith, not by sight.
- Pick the one or two things you feel God wants you to do, complete those, and then you can pick something else. But pick something and implement that to glorify God.
- If you’re going to give anyway, give before tax and you can give more.
"Start somewhere, even if it’s small." — Jay Fechtel
