The Inverted Entrepreneur

The Challenge

Here’s the challenge.

You are passionate about serving God…

…but you are not crystal clear on what, who, where or how? (Clarity – Alignment)

What you are to do may be clear, but not specifically who to do it for or with.

You may feel the tension between serving God and fulfilling your family responsibilities. Maintaining the cash flow to sustain the vision and your family is challenging?

The next step towards your God given passion and dream (such as sailing around the world like us) may not be 100% clear.

You may fear the regret of looking back on your life, wishing you had stepped bravely into your dreams?” (Should have, would have, could have syndrome!)

Know that you are not alone.

Your challenge will be with one or more of the three essential building blocks:

1. Clarity (alignment with purpose)

2. Community (your people – ministry and/or clients)

3. Provision (cash flow for yourself and others)

If you’re called to be a traditional entrepreneur, then that is what you should do and do it without reservation. You will have the ability to give out of your overflow and to fund other people’s ministries.

Yet, as Christians, we are to live out our own unique purpose. Being an entrepreneur is the means, not the end.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Our primary focus is to seek God our Father. We want to live redeemed by Jesus’ sacrifice, and empowered by the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. Our purpose and our calling is God given to impact the world around us. Through Him we produce abundant, good fruit and a Kingdom harvest.

So let’s turn the world’s understanding of an entrepreneur on its head… let’s invert it!

Let’s make our primary focus to seek first God’s Kingdom INSTEAD of seeking first the pursuit of money.

The results may look the same, but the focus is in alignment with our God given calling.

So can we be both a Christian and an Entrepreneur?

Absolutely, YES!

We need to be crystal clear on our God given purpose. There is power in belonging to a community of other like minded Kingdom Dreamers. Provision flows for us and others when our daily pursuits and purpose are in alignment. When this is underpinned by “Seeking first the Kingdom of God”, we have Kingdom power and influence, impacting those around us for God and for good.

We truly live as Inverted Entrepreneurs.

Inverted Entrepreneurs have the provision necessary for their family and their ministry. They have the ability to give out of the overflow. This is the model of the early church in Acts.

All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

…but, what if you’re not called to be an entrepreneur?

What if instead, your God given calling is to be an author, a counsellor, a coach, a mentor, a sailor, a pastor or a missionary?

Doing any of these pursuits requires funding and provision.

As an Inverted Entrepreneur you seek first the Kingdom of God in a Kingdom focused community. This allows you to fund your God given calling in perfect alignment with your passion and dreams.

The alignment of purpose, passion and provision results in peace, joy and fulfilment.

God our Father empowers our pursuits and opens doors that no man can close.

Better Together

The Inverted Entrepreneur

This is why Kerry and I created The Inverted Entrepreneur (TIE) mentoring program. The program inverts the traditional concept of an entrepreneur.

Making money (provision) becomes an extension of your calling instead of an end in itself. It’s the other way around – the inverted way!

In TIE, the focus is on your calling, not on making money. The goal is to bring the various aspects of your life in to alignment.

…and you are doing this within a community of fellow Kingdom Dreamers. Kerry and I, as mentors, will facilitate your transformational journey. A transformation towards reduced stress, greater effectiveness and lasting Kingdom impact.

As one of the TIE commnunity members said:

It’s really important to have somebody, a catalyst, to help you rebuild your confidence [after life has worn you down].

The TIE program’s central focus is on attaining a laser focussed clarity in your calling.

TAKE A STEP TOWARDS CLARITY
This is a wonderful project and thank you (and God) for creating something so meaningful to me.
Ron

You may be wondering how much the TIE program costs.

Well, here’s where we invert things.

The program has transformed lives and we want everyone to be able to benefit.

So, we’re offering a name your own price option. That’s right. You pay what you can afford and what will get you to commit to completing the program.

Why Would You Join The Inverted Entrepreneur Community?

Like so many people, you will have noticed what is going on in the world right now. The unrelenting destruction of civilised (sane) society is obvious. The attacks on free speech are accelerating. War is proliferating at an alarming rate. Free and informed consent to medical interventions is becoming a thing of the past. The emasculation of men is weakening families. Persecution of Christians is becoming common in the West.

In a time such as this, God is calling you for a specific purpose. Your responsibility is to embrace your calling and act. Are you walking in your calling? Are you living your life 100% in alignment with that calling? If not, then know that you can…

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor.

We can sit by on the sidelines OR, knowing that the Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon us, we can wake up, stand up and speak up. Now is the time!

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,

Kerry and I took a step into what God had called us to a few years ago. We didn’t have a plan, the resources or the means but we did dare to dream. What if God could use us to make a difference in the world?

So we took a step, and the next and the next. Now today, we are living our God given dream and helping others to step into theirs as well.

There are many things we can’t influence in our broken world but we can encourage the person next to us. We can go around doing good. We can bring hope to this broken world.

What is that one thing that you can do, today?

On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
“What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
“You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”
But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him.The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’
“Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”
Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

Did you know that it is possible to MULTIPLY your IMPACT as YOU make a difference AND live your best life. It requires three things.

  1. Laser focussed clarity on the calling God has placed on your life.
  2. Drawing on the strength of a community of like minded Kingdom Dreamers.
  3. Walking with confidence into the provision God has for you (and others).
Clarity

CLARITY

There are many good and worthwhile things you could do. If you were to focus on only one thing what would it be? Being single focussed leads to increased effectiveness and greater impact? Let’s work together to figure out what that one thing is.

Clarity! We have lots of experience, lots of ideas, but bringing it all together [is the challenge]. The catalyst of coming under a coach and a coaching program. People who work with you side by side. You realise you’re not the only person going through this and so you can help others through the process as well.
Jonathan

COMMUNITY

Kerry’s catchphrase for many years has been “Better Together”.

There is strength in unity.

As we support each other the synergy creates more than the sum of the parts.

And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Ecclesiastes 4:12 (ESV)

It also took a couple who were willing to be sensitive to the leading of the Spirit and generous enough of nature to invite us onto their boat and share their lives with us.
Jonathan
Provision

PROVISION

The “prosperity” gospel and it’s counterpart the “poverty” gospel both idolise money. Kerry and I prefer to consider money in the context of provision.

Jesus taught us to pray…

Give us this day our daily bread

So, for us, abundant provision is when we have enough for ourselves and others.

And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it.For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.
“Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
STEP INTO YOUR DREAM

So, the time is now! Embrace your God given calling. Bravely step in and run shoulder to shoulder with other Kingdom Dreamers. Make a positive impact today.

As one member of our TIE community says – live with no regrets:

You’ve only got this much time… do it and do it now!
