About the Podcast

Biblical wisdom for the leaders who actually run things

Most business books give you frameworks. Most sermons give you inspiration. Profit and Principle gives you something rarer: precise, exegetically grounded Scripture applied to the exact pressures you face at work — cash flow decisions, difficult employees, ethical tension with clients, the temptation to shade the truth when the quarter is tight.

"The way you handle an unobserved moment and the way you handle a public one are not two different things — they are the same character expressing itself in different contexts."

Each episode runs 10–15 minutes and follows the same structure: the business reality, the scriptural principle (with its original Hebrew or Greek context), a concrete illustration, and one specific action you can take this week. No vague inspiration. No recycled content. Just the Bible, applied.

The Host

Not a business guru.
A Bible teacher.

There's no shortage of podcasts hosted by successful business people who occasionally quote Scripture. Profit and Principle is a different animal. The host is a seminary-trained Bible teacher — the creator of Grasp the Bible, with more than 250 published episodes of verse-by-verse biblical teaching.

The credibility here doesn't come from a business exit or a seven-figure year. It comes from knowing what the text actually says — the Hebrew word behind the translation, the historical context that changes everything, the passage that means the opposite of how it's usually quoted in a boardroom.

Profit and Principle applies the same exegetical discipline to your Monday morning that Grasp the Bible applies to the text itself. The result is something most business content never achieves: depth that actually holds up.

"Most Christian business content treats the Bible like a library of motivational quotes. There is so much more in the text than that — and experienced business people deserve to see it."

— Darrell, Episode 1
What Listeners Say
★★★★★

"I've listened to a lot of Christian business content. This is different. The host actually teaches the Bible — original language, historical context, all of it. And then he tells you exactly what to do with it on Monday."

EntrepreneurManufacturing, 22 years
★★★★★

"The stewardship episode changed how I think about my business. Not because it told me something I hadn't heard — but because it showed me where it actually comes from in the text. Now I can't unread it."

ExecutiveFinancial Services
★★★★★

"I forwarded the episode on confrontation to every manager on my team. The Galatians 6 framework is the best framework for hard conversations I've ever encountered — and I've paid a lot of money for leadership training."

Faith in Practice
Episode 1
Your Business Is Not Yours
Deuteronomy 8:17–18 · Psalm 24:1 · 1 Chronicles 29:14

The most dangerous sentence in business is "I built this." Here's what the text actually says about ownership — and why the answer changes everything about how you lead.

Leadership & Character
Episode 2
The Integrity Gap
Proverbs 10:9 · Luke 16:10 · Colossians 3:23

Most leaders think of integrity as a binary — you have it or you don't. Scripture is more precise than that. There's a gap most of us are living in without knowing it.

Money & Stewardship
Episode 3
What the Bible Actually Says About Profit
Proverbs 14:23 · Luke 19:12–27 · 2 Corinthians 9:6

Profit is not a concession the Bible makes to the business world. It's woven into the parable of the minas. Here's the theology most Christian leaders have never heard.
