The 3 Reasons Christian Entrepreneurs Stay Broke

What if it’s not your skills, strategy, or even your market… but your beliefs that are keeping you broke?

If you’ve ever wrestled with guilt about making money as a Christian, this episode is your wake-up call.

Your first step?

Take the Five Pillars of Greatness Assessment and uncover what’s holding you back: https://coach.ryanjamesmiller.com/the-five-pillars-assessment

In this episode of Unlocking Greatness, Ryan James Miller exposes three limiting beliefs that keep Christian entrepreneurs, founders, and business leaders stuck—financially, spiritually, and emotionally. These aren’t just mindset problems—they’re distortions of truth that undermine your ability to lead, provide, and make Kingdom impact.

Key topics covered:

  • “Money is evil” – What Scripture actually says and why money isn’t the enemy—your worship is.
  • “I shouldn’t charge that much” – How undercharging is not humility, but poor stewardship.
  • “Success means I’m prideful” – The difference between arrogance and God-confidence, and why we need more successful Christian leaders, not fewer.
  • Why many Christian men stay silent about money, afraid to admit confusion or desire for more.
  • How guilt around pricing, success, and wealth is sabotaging mission-minded business.

Main takeaways:

  • Money is a tool. It’s not holy or evil. It amplifies what’s already in your heart.
  • Undercharging doesn’t make you more Christian—it makes you ineffective.
  • Success only becomes prideful when you forget the Source.
  • If God has called you to build, lead, and provide—stop apologizing for it.

Ask yourself: Which of these beliefs have you carried for too long? Are you willing to surrender them so you can step fully into the impact God has called you to make?
