The Christian Entrepreneur
Hosted by serial entrepreneurs Cody and Esther Cottle, the Christian Entrepreneur Podcast exists for believers who hunger for a move of God in the marketplace.
After building 10 companies and walking through both success and painful failures, God called them to shut down their multi-six-figure business in 2024 — and out of that obedience, the Christian Entrepreneur Club was born and has grown into a global community of 600+ members.
This podcast is an extension of our mission to equip entrepreneurs with a biblical framework to do business God's way. Each episode delivers proven business strategies, biblical principles, and conversations with top Christian thought leaders to equip you to do business God's way.
Subscribe now and join a global family of Christian entrepreneurs committed to bringing revival to the marketplace.
The Christian Entrepreneur
Gods Principles Produce Fruit
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most entrepreneurs don't have a strategy problem. They have a roots problem.
In this episode, Cody dives into one of the core values the Christian Entrepreneur Club is built on — the truth that God's principles, when planted deep and tended faithfully, make fruitfulness inevitable. Not luck. Not hustle. Not the right algorithm. Just a life built on what God embedded into creation from the beginning.
We unpack Psalm 1:1–3 and why the blessed man doesn't just happen to prosper — he is purposefully positioned. We look at why the same seed gets completely different results in different soil. And we walk through three biblical principles that will change how you build your business:
→ Integrity — why it doesn't cost you deals, it qualifies you for better ones
→ Generosity — why it's not what you do with your overflow, it's what creates your overflow
→ Wise Counsel — why isolation isn't independence, it's exposure
We also talk about the moment in building CEC where we had to trust that the seeds we were planting were growing — even when nothing looked like it was happening on the surface. And why the most dangerous thing the enemy can do isn't get you to do something evil. It's get you to stop doing something right.
If you've been chasing fruit instead of tending roots — this one is for you.
