ABOUT
Business Makers Network
The Business Makers Network is part of the broader Fight Laugh Feast Network, which focuses on creating content and communities centered around Christian’s engaging the public square through church, business, and their individual efforts. God has built us to enjoy Him and engage culture through a faith integrated in all aspects of life, including business. Here is what you can expect by joining the Business Makers Network:
A community of like-minded Christian business leaders that exist to focus our callings to build successful careers and businesses, influence the economy and politics, and provide growing revenue for our employees and partnerships
Faith
Business Makers Network brings together Christian business professionals, entrepreneurs, and leaders who desire to make Christ Lord in the workplace over the pressure to be politically correct. This means that business practices, decisions, and strategies are guided by Christian ethics, with Christ as the foundation and virtues and principles held foremost.
1. Community and Networking.
Like many business networks, Business Makers Network provides a platform for members to connect, share insights, and collaborate on business ventures. This sense of community is essential for fostering growth, innovation, and mutual support among like-minded professionals.
2. Educational and Development Opportunities.
There may be workshops, seminars, or courses, as suggested by FLF EDU, designed specifically for business leaders that cover topics such as financial management from a Christian perspective, ethical business practices, leadership development, and how faith can influence business decisions and corporate culture.
3. Cultural Engagement.
Given FLF’s broader mission, the Business Makers Network may also focus on how businesses can engage with or influence culture positively, aligning commercial activities with cultural reformation or renewal based on Christ’s teachings.
4. Events and Conferences.
Organized events, including the pre-conference Corporate Partner dinner at the Fight Laugh Feast Conference, provide unique settings that promote business growth, strategy, personal development, fellowship, and camaraderie.
We support each other with like-minded Christian values together!
Content Creation and Sharing.
There is a strong emphasis on delivering content-through podcasts, videos, and written articles-targeted at business professionals, addressing success stories, practical business advice, spiritual guidance, and the integration of faith in overcoming business challenges.
Philosophical and Theological Underpinning.
The network operates on the belief that business is not solely about profit, but about stewardship, dominion, and glorifying God through one’s work, with the “All of life for all of Christ” stance guiding everything from daily operations to long-term business strategies.
Support System.
For Christian entrepreneurs and business leaders, the network serves as a support system for those who face judgment or misunderstanding in secular business environments.
