Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the road to becoming a successful entrepreneur, Bob Diener confronted a lot of tough issues: how to treat employees, how to please customers, whether or not to cut corners, whether to follow the temptation of an unsavory deal… Although he had no formal business training, Bob found solutions to all these issues and reached the top using a simple strategy that is available to anyone. His secret? Careful study of “the best guidebook to running a successful business ever written”: the Bible. Difficult dilemmas become easy when viewed from the biblical perspective. “Our work is meaningless unless to do good,” counsels the Book of Ecclesiastes. Companies that abide by the Bible's rules of business tend to be the ones that prosper long term. Companies that cheat their workers and partners, defraud their customers, and operate unethically don't stay in business very long.You too can become a successful entrepreneur by following the tips, strategies, and biblical principles outlined in this exploration of best practices for market research, labor management, business negotiations, risk mitigation, watching the bottom line, and, perhaps most important of all, leaving a lasting legacy.Bob Diener and his partner David Litman created the company that became hotels.com, which pioneered hotel distribution online. When Bob and his partner took the company public in 2000, the stock price soared from $16 to $90 in one of the most successful IPOs ever. Having gone on to cofound getaroom.com, Bob is a familiar presence on national media outlets, offering his sage advice on the travel industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The truth shall set you free. Ignoring it will cost you a fortune. It has become clear that we are living a lie, and it has brought devastating results: Bankruptcy among churchgoers is equally as high as those who don’t attend. Financial misconduct is destroying marriages, families, individuals, and churches. A record number of churches are in foreclosure. The church teaches us it’s normal to have student loans, car payments, mortgages, and credit cards. It calls poverty a curse but isn’t doing much to correct the problem, and it focuses on tithing and the elimination of personal debt—but debt elimination is not enough. Wouldn’t you rather thrive in your finances and live the life God has called you to? Evangelpreneur will teach you: How to get your financial life to line up with your faith life How to save your family and your church from financial ruin How to recognize if God is calling you to entrepreneurship How to use entrepreneurism to do God’s work on Earth For too long, the faithful have been held hostage by false teaching, bad teaching, and the poor practice of good teaching. It’s time to break free from the bondage tied to financial issues and become an Evangelpreneur.
