Episode 88 - Strategic Faith Planning (part 5) w Dr. Bruce Cook

Great vision, great idea, great plan...but limited resources?  Does that describe a situation you're in now or have found yourself in at some point in your business career?

Gideon had limited resources and it wasn't God's plan for him to follow typical methodology in conquering the Midianites.  God had a unique plan to leverage limited resources to accomplish exponential returns.  

We see that principle throughout scripture.  Remember the story about the five loaves and two fish?  How about the story of fisherman who had been fishing all night, were exhausted, done for the day when Jesus told them to go back out onto the lake (at a time most would consider the worst for fishing) and they brought in the largest haul of their lives.  AND, how about the story of that shepherd boy and his sling.  

Limited resources, great faith!
