Veteran Entrepreneur's Teach Christians How to Have Success Without Selling Their Soul

NEW YORK, Dec. 15, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Co-authors C. Thomas Gambrell and Gerald D. Rogers answer an age old question in their new book, "Success on God's Terms" (ISBN: 9780981667508), which is "Can you have success without selling your soul?" According to these authors the answer is a resounding -- YES! In today's marketplace where everyone seems to be obsessed with fame, money and success, these authors demonstrate to readers how to apply the Word of God to achieve work-life balance and good success in the business realm without succumbing to the worldly temptations of self-centeredness, greed and bad success. 

Readers will be empowered to live a fulfilling life and will be shown how to thrive in business by using scriptures from the Bible. The overall premise of the book is found in its subtitle: How to THINK, SPEAK and PERFORM to SEE the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. The authors hope the insights provided in their book will empower Christian men and women to take dominion in the global marketplace while remaining firmly rooted in the Word of God. 

Just released through GRIP Media Publishing, the authors are planning a 12-city book-signing tour in major U.S. markets before heading abroad. The official launch of the "Success on God's Terms" tour will take place on January 14, 2012 at the Hue Man Bookstore in Harlem, NY. This event will also be available for viewing by Christian audiences world-wide via a Facebook Livestream webcast. Those interested in viewing the event online should check out their website at SuccessOnGodsTerms.com or visit facebook.com/successongodsterms.  

"This has been an opportunity of a lifetime and a dream come true to get this message that has been brewing inside of me for the past 12 years into the marketplace through our book. Our prayer is that readers will know how to practically apply the Word of God to their business and life activities outside of walls of their brick-and-mortar church fellowships after reading the book," says C. Thomas Gambrell. Mr. Rogers adds, "This comprehensive guide describes the creation equation for building the business and life style of your dreams. It includes insight into the roles that the principles of submission, prayer, obedience and humility play in the success process that few people understand." 

The two authors are also first cousins who grew up together spending time in Tampa, FL. They both have been extremely successful in their careers and as business partners. They have built network marketing distribution systems globally by leading and training large teams of home-based entrepreneurs.

Poverty battled with business

Haiti (MNN) ― The launch of a new entrepreneurship program in Haiti could mean more businesses and ultimately more jobs in a suffering economy.

Christian Entrepreneurs in Action was just launched last month in Cap-Haitien of northern Haiti. This program is grooming businessmen of Haiti to better the lives of Haitians in Christ's name.

The new program is partnering with HCJB Global, Partner's Worldwide, and eight other Christian Haitian businessmen. Together, since the launch of Christian Entrepreneurs in Action, they have provided jobs for 120 people.
This isn't the first time Christians have endeavored to train other Christian businessmen in Haiti. Partner's Worldwide has worked in Haiti by holding business training conferences.

A previous Partner's Worldwide conference took place in 2009 and was attended by 300 Haitian businessmen. Attendees were able to take place in networking and workshops. All the while, they learned how to approach business and entrepreneurship with a Christian mindset.

As evidenced by the positive reception of such entrepreneurial programs, more jobs and businessmen are in high demand for Haiti. Unemployment may still be as high as 70%, according to several estimates. Additionally, 80% of the population is below the poverty line.

To fight this depressing trend of extreme poverty, Christian Entrepreneurs in Action is currently working to recruit Christian business professionals. These business professionals would mentor and train entrepreneurs, and open doors for capital to start coming in for the program.

Bringing stimulation to Haiti's economy isn't the end goal. HCJB Global's mission statement for branches in Latin America state that they hope to "communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ through education and discipleship."
Education in excellent business endeavors will do just that. When Christians can step up in the market of business for Haiti and start to employ needy members of the community, hopefully people will see their light in Christ set on the hill of business.

When others see Christians rising to high standards, it inspires higher standards in communities and makes people curious about the God who would instigate such passion in His followers.

Please pray for this newly launched program to recruit enough business mentors to train others to conduct successful, God-honoring businesses. Pray also that through business endeavors and life-action ministry, more Haitians would come to know the Christ who gives them the eternal riches of His kingdom.
