01. Your Most Powerful Business Strategy Has Nothing to Do With Marketing | Part 1: Developing a Lifestyle of Abiding
Better Way To Build with Shay CochraneShow Notes
Have you ever asked God for direction in a big decision and felt nothing back? Or maybe you've wondered whether hearing God's voice is even a real thing — or just reserved for the deeply spiritual few. Whatever your starting point, this episode is going to reframe everything you thought you knew about how God speaks. Drawing from John 10 and the image of the Good Shepherd, Shay lays the biblical foundation for why hearing God isn't mystical or rare — it's actually a core, expected part of following Jesus. She unpacks the difference between logos and rhema, two distinct ways God speaks, and makes the case that learning to tune in to both is the single most powerful business strategy available to the Christian entrepreneur. One word from God can outperform any mastermind, any coaching program, or any business book. The question isn't whether He's speaking — it's whether you're learning to listen. This series is just getting started.
