When was the last time you heard a sermon about how to start your own business? Probably never! That's why Ope Banwo wrote this book. Th ere are plenty of how-to manuals out there for maintaining a business, but it's what happens before that business opens that makes the difference in whether it will be a success-or not. For Christians, the stakes are even higher because God's will is the driving force behind a believer's business. It's more than just making money, it's creating an influence that will draw people closer to Christ and expand His Kingdom. Th ese entrepreneurs, therefore, are "kingdompreneurs," looking to fulfill their God-given assignments. In The Making of the Kingdompreneur, Banwo outlines the seven most crucial ideas anyone should consider before starting a business that honors the Lord. He draws from his own business experience and uses practical and biblical examples to show how a business can turn from feast to famine-and back again-with the right direction. Not only for prospective business owners, this is a practical guide for those already in business who will realize mid-course corrections to make their work shine. Through Banwo's careful method, "kingdompreneurs" can learn to plan, prioritize, and produce in a way that brings the glory to God. You might not hear The Making of the Kingdompreneur's ideas from your Sunday pulpit, but if you follow Banwo's instruction you are sure to hear the Creator's affirmation: "Well done, good and faithful servant." Ope Banwo is an attorney, motivational speaker, and Pastor of House On The Rock, Omaha. He is also the President/CEO of KingdomPreneur International, an organization dedicated to equipping Christians with thenecessary tools for fulfilling the Kingdom mandate through enterprise. The training arm of the company, Academy of Business for Christians, conducts seminars and courses all over the world to empower Christians in business to excel in the marketplace. Banwo is also the author of several books including The Kingdom Citizen, Th e Return of the Prodigal, Overcoming the Gideon Complex, Confronting the Enemy at the Gate, and Th e Blessings of Adversity.
