If you say Jesus is at the center of your business… but the Word of God isn’t shaping your daily decisions, something is off.

In this episode, Andy Mason breaks down how to actually read the Bible as a business leader—not just for information, but for real-life transformation.

From early experiences with scripture to developing a daily rhythm that informs decisions, leadership, and identity, this episode is both practical and deeply personal.

You’ll learn:

• Why most leaders struggle with consistency in the Word
• How to move from reading the Bible to encountering God
• The role of community and mentors in spiritual growth
• Why slowing down is the key to deeper revelation
• A simple rhythm you can start today

If you’ve ever felt disconnected, inconsistent, or unsure how to engage the Bible in your work life, this is for you.
