In this powerful episode of The Founder Collective Table, we’re flipping the script on what it means to steward well. This conversation gets real about trusting God with what you have now, rather than constantly chasing after “more.” Whether you’ve got one talent or ten, this gathering reminds us that it’s not about comparison — it’s about obedience. You’ll hear raw, faith-filled testimonies from entrepreneurial leaders who’ve been pruned, stretched, and refined — and how surrendering the small things has unlocked kingdom-level impact.

This isn’t just another roundtable talk. This is what happens when believers gather, share their stories, challenge one another, and make space for God to move — live and unscripted.

What You'll Learn:

• Why God may not be giving you more — and why that’s a gift

• How to redefine “more” from a kingdom perspective

• The dangers of comparison in entrepreneurship

• What it looks like to steward the “one talent” with joy

• Real-life testimonies of obedience, surrender, and unexpected favor

• Why “humble beginnings” aren’t something to rush through

• The power of community for sustaining your mission
