Heaven in Business Podcast
361. The Grace Effect
What if grace—not grind—became your business's operating system? In this episode, Andy Mason sits down with Shae Bynes, author of Grace Over Grind and co-founder of Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur, to explore what it looks like to build and lead in partnership with God. Shae shares how fear, anxiety, control, and hyper-independence can quietly shape the way we work—and how trust and surrender create a different way to lead. She also shares her journey from corporate life to entrepreneurship, Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur, and The Grace Effect. Read the blog here: Heaveninbusiness.com/blog You’ll discover practical ways to recognize when you’re operating from grind, bring God into business decisions, and ask whether you’re truly following His assignment—or simply staying where you’ve become comfortable. Plus, Shae shares three simple questions for your next “wisdom meeting” with God: • Father, what is on Your heart concerning this? • Jesus, what is Your strategy concerning this? • Holy Spirit, what is the wisdom You want me to know? There is more available when we stop relying solely on our own understanding and learn to lead from trust, surrender, and partnership with God. Shae Bynes is the author of Grace Over Grind and Grace Under Pressure, co-founder of Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur, and creator of The Grace Effect.
