Should Christians Lead With Faith or Skill? Media legend Dr. Phil Cooke reveals why Christian entrepreneurs should lead with excellence, not testimony. Learn how skill opens more doors than broadcasting your beliefs in hostile cultures. Phil, a media producer with 30+ years consulting major Christian ministries, advises: "Don't lead with your testimony. Don't lead with your faith. Lead with your skill." Excellence in your craft earns respect that opens doors for natural faith conversations, while leading with faith often closes those same doors in secular environments.

On this episode of the R7 Christian Marketing Podcast, Dr. Dave and entrepreneur Josef "Joe" Schmidt talk honestly about what Christian entrepreneurs often get wrong and what it really takes to build something meaningful. Their conversation highlights a simple but challenging truth: Faith does not remove the need for hard work. Success still requires grind, focus, and excellence.

Steve Noble, founder of Called2Action, host of 3,400+ radio shows, and educator at Noble U, joins Dr. Dave to discuss the fundamental shift in marketing: Your organization is not the hero, your audience is. You are their guide.

In this powerful conversation, entrepreneur Joe Schmidt shares his journey from financial success to founding Freedom United, an anti-human trafficking organization that influenced UN policy. Dave Jones and Joe dive deep into the difference between mediocrity and excellence in Christian calling, challenging the idea that faith means simply "checking boxes" rather than becoming the best version of yourself. They discuss why so many Christians use their calling as an excuse for average work, the problem with fear-based Christian marketing, and Joe's profound "three emoji" understanding of God's love. This raw, honest discussion redefines what it means to live out your purpose with stellar effort, not perfect outcomes.

If you're a Christian leader or entrepreneur looking to live with purpose and make Kingdom impact, this conversation will challenge and inspire you.
