The Silent Season: Trusting God Between the Vision and the Breakthrough

In today’s episode, we explore a sacred but often overlooked space in the journey of faith-driven entrepreneurship—the Silent Season. It’s the time between when God gives you the vision and when you finally see the breakthrough. If you’ve ever launched the business, taken the leap of faith, prayed, obeyed—and then heard nothing but silence—this message is for you.

📌 Cody shares his own journey of launching the Christian Entrepreneur Club and how he and Esther had to walk through their Silent Season, trusting God even when the results weren’t visible. You’ll learn how to discern the difference between divine silence and divine preparation—and why God does His deepest work in the dark.
