12 (Extra) Success Strategies from the Bible

In the first four centuries, Christianity was a persecuted sect within a persecuted sect. And it conquered the greatest empire in the world – not through violence and power, but through embracing Truth and being people of superior character.

The early Christians had an unfair advantage over the pagans around them. The Bible taught them how to think and how to be.

Even the Romans had no chance against the unwavering faith, formidable kindness and pure resilience of the Christians they persecuted.

And so if living by the Bible can help you slowly and irresistibly defeat the greatest military on Earth, just imagine what it can do for your life.

Because if you want the most out of your career and your life, then you have options.

Sure, there’s so much that’s out of your control. The economy, what your boss or clients do, who other people see as experts – it all affects you, but none of that is up to you.

There’s plenty you can control, though.

Plenty of mental skills you can embrace and develop.

Like optimism. Optimists are happier and more successful than pessimistic folks, so it’s a smart skill to learn.

Or you can mope around with your chin to your chest, wondering why your lot in life never improves.

And proactivity. Action tends to beat passivity. When you do something now to set you up for success later, you embrace a proven winning strategy.

Or you could sit around, glued to the couch as you eagerly wait for opportunities to (somehow) find you.

Asking for help usually gets you further than slogging on alone.

And whatever you do, give it your all. Don’t take short cuts or pull your punches. Do your best – anyone could be watching.

This is all good, common and obvious advice – advice that works regardless of your role, experience or industry. Be optimistic, take action, build relationships and do your best – do all of that and you shift the odds in your favour.

But… as good as this all is, there’s two problems here:

First, is that all there is – a short list of four things?

Or are there other simple little shifts could you do to radically improve your career?

Second, how do you do use a list like this? Can you choose to change your outlook? How do you be optimistic, take action and ask for help if those things don’t come naturally to you?

The answers – of course – lie in the Bible.

To the first question – yes, there is a list of mental shifts you can make that maximise your odds of success.

And I have no interest in hiding that list from you. In a moment, I’ll tell you how to get the full list and begin levelling up your mind.

But first, I must tell you where the list came from.

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free (John 8:32)

For most of my life, I was an atheist. And not just an atheist but a staunch, practically militant atheist.

I didn’t believe in any religion.

But I did see them as a way of cultures teaching valuable lessons, dressed in mythological ideas.

When psychologists studied Buddhism, they found meditation and mindfulness techniques. Once they secularised them, stripping them of their spiritual parts, they had something they could teach and use.

I sought to do the same thing – to extract what was useful from religions and use what I found. And I succeeded. Studying Hinduism gave some insights into the nervous system, while studying Shamanism taught me about designing “rituals” for people.

Then I turned my sights on Christianity.

During the lockdowns, most folks eagerly complied. They trusted the authorities when they pointed to heavy propaganda and non-existent science to justify it. Others grumbled about this unprecedented, unjustified, destructive overreach… but grumbled quietly to themselves.

The only people I saw standing up to this insanity were all Christians.

They were different people – comedians, commentators, politicians, scientists – but the ones I kept seeing were all Christians. It even bothered me at the time. Where were my fellow atheists? Why were they staying silent?

I sought to do with Christianity what I’d done elsewhere, which is to extract the technique within Christianity that made these folks so brave and wise. They could see evil when others couldn’t and they could stand against it, even at great cost. I wanted that.

So I started studying Christian philosophy, looking to secularise whatever was working for them.

And I failed. As I studied the Bible, the Holy Spirit moved through me. The truth was irresistible. I couldn’t deny the logic or wisdom of what I was experiencing.

It was the best failure of my life. The bravery I’d seen wasn’t something extractable. People demonstrate it by following the example of Jesus and having faith in Him. Like atheism itself, I was always doomed to fail.

My studies into Christian philosophy haven’t stopped, even years later. The more I study the Bible, the more I see it as a brilliant manual for spiritual training. And practical training. It turns out the Word of God, tested for millennia, has a lot of useful things to say about how you can best live your life.

Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom for the future (Proverbs 19:20)

The Bible is the greatest career guidance manual in existence.

Yeah, yeah, I hear you. It’s the Word of God, containing profound Truths about life, the cosmos and the meaning of it all. It’s also the greatest, most tragic, most Beautiful account of heroism, sacrifice and virtue. Isn’t it crass to say it helps with something as base as money?

And I agree – if you only use the Bible to boost your career, you’ve missed the point.

But I’m a big fan of applying the Bible everywhere. If it’s part of your life, then it’s smart to bring Christian thinking to it.

Besides, your career is no small thing. A noble career sees you serving your fellow man, while earning enough money to support good causes and live on your terms. When it comes to your labours, remember that…

…Feasts are made for laughter; wine gladdens life, and money meets every need. (Ecclesiastes 10:19)

That’s why I created this – a Biblically-sound set of ways to improve your career, starting from the core of your mind.

Your career matters. So many jobs are a waste of your talents and opportunities. Some are downright wicked, putting money and power into the hands of people who hate Christianity, the nuclear family and Goodness itself.

I dream of a world filled with honest workers doing great work and being fairly compensated for it. Some days, that feels far off. But I know I can help in my small way. After all, no matter how bothered you are by your career, stressed you are about money or how impossible a fair and brilliant world seems, I feel hope because I know I should…

… Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. (Philippians 4:6)

Remember the list of common sense advice for everyone, whether an employee or self-employed, and no matter your industry:

Be optimistic, take action, cultivate relationships and do your best.

Well, optimism is a great Christian virtue.

Christianity is the most optimistic of the major faiths. While the others talk vaguely about some eternal paradise, Jesus tells us plainly: He died to save us and He will defeat all evil in the end.

Taking action? Jesus tells us to pick up our cross and follow Him. It’s one of the clearest instructions He gives us.

While godless societies compete and backstab, we Christians know to cooperate. We know that iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17) and how we treat each other is how we treat God (Matthew 25:40).

And while secular philosophers insist consciousness is a property of the brain, peak performers – like athletes and musicians – do their best work when their brains go blank and the performance moves through them.

Almost as if their body moves on its own, not guided by a slow, clumsy brain – just as David describes God training his hands and fingers for war (Psalm 144:1).

Or as if the Spirit of God is moving through them, allowing them to do incredible things – just like he did with Bezalel (Exodus 31:3).

But of course, the pagans have missed the point. A key part of the flow state is in answering a calling. When what you train towards honours God, this sense of divine inspiration comes on more readily.

No wonder Christians created the greatest civilisations in history.

And no wonder secular psychologists and philosophers ape Christian thinking, even as they mock it.

It really is the best way to run your life.

And what the Bible teaches us goes far, far deeper than those four things. Those four things are common, even cliche, because they work. They work so well, the modern pagans must pretend they discovered them all on their own.

While these secular psychologists try to expand that list of four things, they struggle to catch up to where Christians were millennia ago.

Here are a few insights the pagans are just barely arriving to now:

Let us test and examine our ways (Lamentations 3:40)

Everyone thinks they’re self-aware. Just as how 90% of folks think they’re above average drivers, 90% of folks consider themselves above average at introspection.

But they rarely examine their ways and never test them.

Metacognition is the art of thinking about your thinking, rather than blindly believing your own thoughts. It’s the ability to step back and scrutinise your instincts. When you think metacognitively, you distance yourself from your own nonsense and see your patterns for what they are.

Anyone who can’t do this well is a slave to their own biases, blindspots and folly.

And Christianity can set them free.

The Bible teaches us that, regardless of our mistakes, we’re all innocent and pure in our own eyes (Proverbs 16:2 and Proverbs 21:2).

Matthew 6 is an extended lesson in looking past your own actions and scrutinising your actual motivations.

And then rolls into a lesson on how to overcome the common and devastating attribution bias – warning you against noticing the speck in your neighbour’s eye and ignoring the log in your own.

A huge part of the Sermon on the Mount is a call to greater self-awareness.

Do I need to tell you the benefits of thinking like this? While your business rivals make decisions from emotion, you know how easily you can deceive yourself (Proverbs 28:26).

To make a decision, you must respond to the world without being deceived by the world.

And you must check your instincts without being led astray by your heart.

It’s not always easy. But it’s a lot harder for the pagans who never question their own folly. Who among those lost sheep has the self-awareness of David in Psalm 139, asking God to expose anything anxious or offensive within him?

“But William,” you might say, “a pox on this list! Optimism leads fools to think they can defeat a lion in single combat. Taking action is great, unless it leads you to chasing trends til you burn out. Asking for help just invites a parade of fools in to slow you down. A flow state isn’t always necessary or even a good thing. As for metacognition, you may as well advocate for procrastination!”

Ah, I see.

You see that while these are generally useful, there are times when they aren’t.

Which suggests to be flexible is a useful mental skill to learn, doesn’t it?

And if I may quote a flexible man:

I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. (1 Corinthians 9:22)

It’s funny. A cartoonish view of Christianity shows dogmatism and inflexibility.

And yet Christianity adapts. In Japan, saints are depicted like samurai. In Eastern Orthodox churches, they emphasise family and guilt. And in some university campuses, Christianity saccharine to the point of pollyanna.

Christian scholars preserved the works of the great B.C. thinkers like Aristotle. They could disagree while still recognising its value.

It’s the progressive atheists who prove incapable of interpreting anything except through their own lens.

It’s no surprise. Ecclesiastes 3 is the greatest mantra on flexibility ever written. A time to weep and a time to laugh, indeed…

Look at what Jesus does. He walks Nicodemus through subtle theological points that would fry the brains of Galilean fisherman – for them, He tells parables. Sometimes He’s cheeky, sometimes He’s passionate, sometimes He’s angry, and on at least one occasion, He’s destructive.

The Bible teaches us that the wise pay attention to their surroundings and change their actions, while fools unthinkingly persevere (Proverbs 22:3 and 27:12).

Want to get ahead in your career? Be flexible with everything, including the need to be flexible with everything. Don’t be doubleminded and unstable (James 1:8). Don’t be tossed to and fro by the winds of doctrine (Ephesians 4:14).

But do hold to what is Good, True and Beautiful – as for the rest, go with the tide.

For now we see through a glass, darkly (1 Corinthians 13:12)

We each see reality differently.

Reality exists – the variables are in us, not the world. And there are trivial examples we can point to. Someone with colourblindness will see things differently than to most folks.

But we all see things differently from everyone else. No two people see the world the same way.

You don’t even see things the same as how you used to.

And I mean this literally. By “see things a certain way” I don’t mean have certain opinions. I’m talking about the literal experience of perception.

You ignore most of the sensory data you’re exposed to. You must. For one thing, your organs don’t experience all of reality. Your eyes only see a fraction of the light spectrum. What you can’t hear or feel outweighs what you can.

And even with what your senses pick up, you ignore most of that too. You’re likely ignoring the sounds of the space around you and the feeling of your left buttcheek – at least until something draws your attention to it.

All this is common stuff. It’s basic philosophy.

And yet, most folks who know this, who can recite this quirky fact about human nature, still fail to live as though it’s the case.

The first mistake is assuming your map of the world is the world. It isn’t. You see through a glass, darkly – through your conditioning and biases as much as the limits of your sensory apparatus.

And the second is assuming others see things the same way you do.

This is devastating to marketers and managers. Selling to yourself is the best way to make no sales. Leading yourself means leading no one.

But when you can see the differences in how others think – even when you disagree – you have an advantage.

This is common sense, but it’s not common practice. People believe their own hype, and then assume everyone else is just a defective version of themselves. You see this cleanest in any online discussion around society or politics.

To test yourself, describe how someone who disagrees with you sees the world – in a way they’d agree with it. Until you can do this with everyone you know, you have work to do.

His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3)

Finish this sentence:

“Everything would be great, if only I had…”

Had what?

Money?

A spouse?

Chances to prove yourself?

An audience?

No doubt that see would make things easier for you. But you have everything you need, given to you through the love and grace of God.

Oh, I don’t doubt you have unique challenges. I’m sure there’s some excellent reason why your life is harder than anyone else’s.

So what? You can either roll over and die, or use what blessings you do have.

Reject helplessness. You have everything you need to succeed. If you ever think your limitations are too much for you to overcome, you must reread the story of Moses. In Exodus 4, Moses realised he had the absurd task of convincing his kin that he had spoken to God. God tells him he has everything he needs in his hand, literally.

The lesson is that sometimes you need God to remind you of the power He’s giving you.

That’s how David beat Goliath, against all odds. All he needed was a sling and a stone, to the point of refusing to wear Saul’s armour. That’s all it took to slay the deadliest warrior in the world. He didn’t need an army or a rocket launcher – he had what he needed.

And so do you.

A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a downcast spirit dries up the bones (Proverbs 17:22)

The opposite of folly is folly.

For example, it’s a mistake to think – as so many folks have over the centuries – that the mind and the body are independent. That what happens in one has no bearing on the other.

But it’s also a mistake to think the opposite – that the mind and body are one, with no real difference between them. Plenty of New Age pagans will tell you thoughts and form are the same thing, even as they wallow in sickness and mediocrity.

The mind and the body are part of the same system. Each influences the other in complicated ways.

This is one that common wisdom is starting to cotton on to. Wellness in service of high performance is huge right now. Exercise, meditation, biohacking – these are mainstream among executives and entrepreneurs, using optimisations to the body to enhance the mind.

But the interactions here are so much more powerful than this. It’s not just the body supporting the mind. The body also supports the body. And the mind supports the body, and the mind.

And all of these changes support the other.

Use your system, including your body and your mind – both, together, each supporting the other.

The mind is not the body, and the body is not the mind – and neither are who you are. The body-mind system is more like an ecosystem than a machine – that’s why you sometimes try to make big changes, only for them to undo themselves. Like a forest regrowing over a burnt out area.

And why sometimes the tiniest shift can transform everything.

… Suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope (Romans 5:3-4)

Let’s say you try something.

If you succeed, great! I hope whatever you set your mind to was worthy of your talents.

If not… great! Your failures strengthen your character.

This too is similar to the Silicon Valley ethos of move fast and break things. Since the world radically rewards action, take action. Even if you fumble, you come out further ahead.

But the Christian view is different. The entrepreneur moves fast because it’s the best way to get reliable data from the cosmos about what’s a clever idea and what isn’t. They seek feedback from the world. This is a Biblical idea – a combination of take action and be flexible, covered above.

Here, though, the Christian is one who will always seek hope.

And this attitude goes beyond trying things. All your suffering can serve your purpose, whether self-inflicted or not. The stereotypical techbro tries to control everything – this is folly! People have been humbled for smaller acts of pride than that.

Meanwhile, the wise Christian works hard, pushes the boundaries and grows stronger no matter what happens.

Every man did what was right in his own eyes (Judges 21:25)

So many people look like adults. Inside, though, they are like children.

One easy way to spot this:

Ask them about their enemies.

Chronologically advanced children like to think that their political enemies are evil for evil’s sake. They think their enemies relish the suffering of innocents and the destruction of everything that is good.

And, sure, their actions might cause great suffering and destruction.

They might even celebrate that.

But there’s a positive intention behind even the worst actions. It’s hard to recognise the Good in everyone, but it’s there. Jesus can see it. So can we, with some effort.

When Eve lusted after the fruit, she wasn’t being wicked on purpose. She wanted the fruit because it was good for food, and a source of Beauty and wisdom (Genesis 3:6).

Evil exists. And evil deeds must be punished.

But to fight evil, even if your own heart, you must understand its appeal. Folks do evil deeds because they’re trying to do good.

Your enemies are – at worst – misguided. Some of them are deeply, horrifyingly misguided. Some are so caustic, they must be stopped at all costs.

But they’re not evil for evil’s sake. In their eyes, they’re the hero of the story.

It’s a hard lesson. Life’s a lot more fun when your enemies are wicked to their core. But alas, we’re all human.

Even serial killers have what they see as righteous motivations for their horrific actions. Everything everyone does is because they think it’ll get them power, peace, respect or something else objectively Good.

Some atheists get this idea. Many don’t. They don’t have the advantage of knowing what they look like in the eyes of Jesus – deeply loved, even as their sin is hated. You can view your enemies the same way. They, like you, are lost sheep. They’re simply a little more lost than you are.

Everyone wants to make the world a better place. We simply disagree on what better looks like.

“Not the folks who support [politician I hate]! They want to destroy the country for no reason!” Oh, grow up.

When you seek to do Good, you often do evil (Romans 7:19). Still, Jesus sees the Good in you. Others are the same way – it’s only that the evil they do is different from the evil you do.

This ain’t a call to tolerance. You must fight and condemn evil behaviour!

And you’ll fight evil better when you recognise the Good in others, seeing them as they see themselves.

Elijah was a man of like nature with ourselves (James 5:17)

James taught a simple lesson: when times are tough, pray, and when times are great, sing songs of praise (James 5:13). Do this and you can even banish and bring forth the rain, like Elijah did.

“Yeah, but we’re not Elijah. He was special!”

Elijah was a man like any other. If he ever did anything extraordinary, it was because of what he believed or what he did – not who he was.

If Elijah could do something, you can do it too.

We’re all born into different bodies and different families, in different times and different places. Still, don’t assume that successful people are different from you. They’re human, you’re human.

Their success doesn’t come from them being a different type of person than you are. Avoid “othering” your betters. You might not be able to do what they can do, but their greatness is within reach.

Paul said to imitate him just as he was imitating Jesus (1 Corinthians 11:1). The goal there isn’t to go to prison and write scathing books, as Paul did. Nor is it to walk on water and martyr yourself, as Jesus does.

It’s not their actions that Paul called you to imitate.

Paul wrote part of the Bible. He didn’t achieve that by being superhuman, but by being human. He might have been extraordinary but he wasn’t special – no more special than you are.

It’s an easy mistake to make. When Paul and Barnabas went to Lystra and cured the sick, the locals assumed they were gods. Paul made it as clear as he could: they were ordinary humans, just like them (Acts 14:15).

If Paul and Barnabas were gods, then no one else could do what they did. Their powers would have come from their special nature. Paul told them that’s not the case – everyone can do what he did.

The folks at the top of their fields can seem like gods – or, at least, not human. It’s easy to assume the best CEOs, salesfolk, innovators and engineers have some sort of mutation or extra lobe in their brain.

They do things no one else can.

Yet. That’s the word missing there: they do what no one else can do yet. Pioneers in any field can do the impossible because they do things differently. They demonstrate what humanity is capable of – not just them, but others too.

Not everyone, though. We all have different gifts (Romans 12:6) and so will thrive in different callings.

Still, the people who share your gifts and excel with them, beyond what you think you can achieve, succeed through their humanity – not through anything you don’t have.

This is why every disciple, trained well enough, can equal their teacher (Luke 6:40).

Success leaves clues.

And you share the nature of the successful. If they can achieve such extraordinary success, so can you. They simply figured out how before you did.

Don’t worship the legends in your field. Study them.

He who winks the eye causes trouble (Proverbs 10:10)

You are always communicating.

Even when you say nothing, you speak volumes. Your thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and ideals leak out of you constantly

You don’t need to say anything or do anything for people to get a reasonable read on you. They way you use (or don’t use) your hands and feet can betray your character (Proverbs 6:13).

This is why honest salesfolk can make sales that no one else can. People can pick up on that honesty. I’m not saying a sleazy con artist can never scam someone out of their money – of course they can. But people are surprisingly good at detecting honesty, confidence and compassion.

Talented con artists know how to fake these well enough to trick enough folks enough of the time.

But the tells are always there. Your body is loud and honest, even when the rest of you isn’t.

This is why the best preaching of the gospel is done without words. You are a letter from Christ (2 Corinthians 3:3), where your values, character and actions say much.

Let your light shine before others, so they may see your deeds and glorify God (Matthew 5:16).

Any leader understands this. When you’re nervous, uncertain, miserable or without hope, your people can pick up on that. They might not even know they’ve noticed that – instead, the atmosphere in the team sours.

There are two business applications here. The first is to authentically be a person of character. Communicate without words that you’re capable and trustworthy. For the folks who can hear this, you have no competition. Being a Good man is the best niche.

The second is to see what others really say. When Eli saw Hannah silently praying, he read this as drunkenness instead of righteousness (1 Samuel 1:14). Don’t make this mistake.

When a potential customer says they need some time to think about it, do they actually need time? Or is that a polite rejection? When one of your employees stops contributing to brainstorming sessions, what are they actually saying?

Get this right and you can see things – problems, opportunities – no one else can.

I said there are two business applications here, but there’s a third: align your words and actions. Most people don’t. And since everyone communicates before they even open their mouths, we’re all constantly swamped in a thin layer of dishonesty.

Jesus condemns those who preach but don’t practice (Matthew 23:3). Talk is cheap, as they say. You can tell people that you’re the best at what you do, just as easily as telling them that you can fly by flapping your arms.

And you can tell folks that Christ is King all day.

But when you fully, authentically and powerfully know it, suddenly your words have weight.

Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labour, doing honest work with his hands (Ephesians 4:28)

People want to fix their problems.

They want to quit smoking, feel more confident, procrastinate less, work harder, be more present with loved ones…

But they don’t seem to know what fixing their problems means.

I can’t blame them. No one has taught them.

Then again, the Bible makes it clear what they need to do.

Let’s say your problem is: you smoke and you want to quit. Being so simple, the answer is also simple. You simply stop.

But alas, many simple things aren’t that simple.

There are reasons why smokers find it hard to quit, and it’s not because of nicotine addiction. The worst of those symptoms fade within a few days.

And yet, former smokers can relapse after months – long after the cravings fade. So what’s that about?

It’s right there in Matthew.

Jesus describes driving an unclean spirit from someone. There was a problem, then they solved it. Great! Most folks would stop here and declare victory, which is why most folks fail.

Because the unclean spirit will return. And if it finds the house empty, it’ll bring seven worse spirits with it (Matthew 12:45).

It’s not enough to drive the unclean spirit out, just as it’s not enough for the thief to stop stealing. Those aren’t solutions.

You don’t simply suppress your own evil speech. It’s not enough to remain silent. You must replace it with useful, uplifting words (Ephesians 4:29).

Self-improvement can’t be about shedding bad habits and adopting a new routine. You must resist what the world tells you and transform your mind to align with what God wants for you (Romans 12:2). If you’re a drunkard, the solution isn’t simply to stop drinking – it’s to stop drinking and fill yourself with the Holy Spirit instead (Ephesians 5:18).

Most folks think of self-improvement as a fruit basket – something to consume and be done with. But no pineapple can sustain you forever. Instead, self-improvement is like a fruit tree, bearing food fruit into the future (Matthew 7:17).

Back to the smoker looking to quit. If they cut cigarettes from their life, that might work. It might not. They’ll get better results if they figure out why they smoke and do something better instead.

Some people smoke to socialise, to relax, to give themselves time to think and appreciate the moment. No wonder they find it hard to quit! Those are all great things. To quit smoking means losing them too.

If they find smarter ways of getting those benefits, they’ll be able to quit much more easily. They won’t need to smoke.

Don’t “solve” the problems in your life. Replace your problems with virtues.

Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another (Proverbs 27:17)

This gives us quite the list of winning strategies.

While the secular world is catching up, advocating that you be optimistic, take action, build relationships and do your best, any studious Christian is leagues ahead of them.

You know to do that, plus to:

  1. Think metacognitively,
  2. Be flexible,
  3. See the differences,
  4. Reject helplessness,
  5. Use your system,
  6. Seek hope,
  7. Recognise the Good,
  8. Avoid “othering” your betters,
  9. Communicate without words,
  10. See what others really say,
  11. Align your words and actions, and
  12. Replace your problems with virtues.

Do all that and it doesn’t matter what industry you’re in – in time, folks will see you as someone worth working with.

There’s no better testimonial or reference than your character.

The lingering question, though, is how. Because if you read or even memorise this list of 16 things (don’t forget the four in common wisdom), then so what? Knowledge of this is vanity. It must be what you do, eventually becoming who you are.

The best answer is to study the Bible. I’ve given some references that justify each of these attitudes. There are many others. Explore them, study them, embrace them.

And if you’d rather not do that alone, remembering that iron sharpens iron…

I run Zoom calls on the regular. Each 45 minute call explores one of these 16 strategies through modern parables, plus some other Christian-backed techniques for accelerated learning. You’ll get these strategies into your bones.

And I can’t make any promises as to what happens to you next. Your success is between you, your market and God.

But when you focus on this with others who share your values and drive, under the guidance of an expert in coaching and applied psychology…

… who knows just how fast more than your professional life improves.

I’m pricing this to be within reach of most folks, yet enough to keep this intimate and with serious people. If it’s too high for you, there are plenty of great men’s Bible study groups out there – between them and what I’ve given you here, that’s enough to get a solid grasp of this.

But if you’re serious about aligning your mind and your soul, though?

If you want greater odds of succeeding on righteous terms, not materialistic ones?

Then find a timeslot that works for you:
