What does the American Academy of Pediatricians suggest doctors say to overweight twelve-year olds? Exercise? Eat better? Do both? Nope - they are to say get your intestines cut up, stomach stapled and start eating pills. If that is not the end of all trust in that coven, one will never exist. It was based on that news that Zach and I talked about his view of building parallel economies. I was thrilled to learn Zach thinks that is a great possibility, and he explains why in this ‘Cast.

Zach also went off on how he visualizes market trends, especially in our chaos economy. If you have ever wondered how some with whom God gifted the mind of a fund manager sees all the pieces moving, don’t miss that.

PS; Yes, there was some Bro talk.

What does God say?

If our businesses are of the world, we are ignoring God’s direction. We are to be different from the world. In fact, we are to reject the world -- that does not mean rejecting people, or refusing to help -- it means to reject what the world loves and, instead, seek to do what God loves.

Romans 12:1-2

12 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Oh, the Bro’ talk? If it’s not ungodly, or unwholesome, isn’t visiting and joking with friends one way to embrace the Fruit of The Spirit?

Galatians 5:22-23

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
