Trading with Jesus

Season 2

Not Every Trade Deserves Your Attention

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 26 because I believe this chapter contains a lesson that can completely change your trading: not everything deserves a response. In the markets, price is constantly moving. New setups are constantly forming. Social media is filled with trade ideas, opinions, and predictions. But wisdom teaches us that just because something gets our attention doesn't mean it deserves our action.

The Disciplined Trader Waits on God's Timing

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 25 because I believe this chapter teaches one of the hardest lessons for any trader to learn: the power of patience. In a world that celebrates speed, instant gratification, and quick results, God often works through waiting, refining, and preparation. Proverbs 25 reminds us that true wisdom is often displayed not through constant action, but through restraint and trusting God's timing.

The Righteous Trader Gets Back Up

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 24 because I believe it contains one of the most encouraging verses for anyone on this trading journey. Proverbs 24:16 says, “For the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity.” I love this verse because it completely changes how we should view setbacks. Notice that the righteous person still falls. The verse doesn't say they never make mistakes, never experience losses, or never have difficult seasons. It says they get back up.

Guard Your Heart More Than Your Portfolio

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 23, because I believe this chapter speaks directly to one of the greatest dangers traders face. Surprisingly, it's not market volatility, losing trades, or drawdowns. The greatest danger is allowing the pursuit of money to slowly capture our hearts.

Protect Your Character More Than Your Account

It’s Monday, a brand new trading week, and before we start looking for entries, managing risk, and watching the charts, I want us to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 22. I believe this chapter reminds us of something that can easily get lost in the pursuit of financial success: your character is worth far more than your account balance.

Prepare Like It Depends on You, Trust Like It Depends on God

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 21, because I believe this chapter gives us one of the greatest lessons a trader can ever learn. Every trader wants to know how to increase their odds of success. We spend countless hours studying charts, refining strategies, backtesting setups, and improving our execution. And while all of that matters, Proverbs chapter 21 reminds us of a truth we should never forget: our responsibility is to prepare faithfully, but the outcome ultimately belongs to God.

Character Is Your Greatest Asset

It’s the weekend, the charts are closed, and I think this is the perfect time to step away from the markets and reflect on something far more valuable than our last trade. Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 20, because this chapter reminds us that while the world measures success by performance, God measures success by character. At the end of the day, your greatest asset is not your trading strategy, your account size, or your latest payout. Your greatest asset is the person you are becoming.

Trust God Even When Things Don’t Go According To Plan

Today is a little different. The markets are closed, the charts are off, and many of us are stepping into a long holiday weekend ahead of Independence Day. And honestly, I think that makes today the perfect opportunity to step back from trading and reflect on something deeper than entries, setups, and profit. Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 19, because this chapter reminds us that life — and trading especially — teaches us very quickly that our plans do not always unfold the way we expect, but God’s purpose is always greater than our own.

Where Does Your Strength Really Come From?

It’s Thursday, and for many of us this is the final trading session before we head into the long Independence Day weekend. Before the markets slow down and we step away for a few days, I want us to reflect on something deeper than charts, setups, and profit targets. Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 18, because I believe this chapter asks a question every trader eventually has to answer: Where does your strength really come from?

Pressure Reveals What’s Really Inside You

Today I want to spend some time in the Book of Proverbs chapter 17, because I believe this chapter speaks directly to one of the hardest parts of trading that most people underestimate — and that is learning how to handle pressure. A lot of people think trading is simply about finding the right strategy, learning technical analysis, and executing profitable setups. But the longer you trade, the more you realize the market has a unique way of exposing what already lives inside of you.
