Christian Business Mindset: What Mark 8:33 Teaches Us About Aligning Strategy with God’s Will
As Christian entrepreneurs, we talk a lot about strategy, systems, and scaling. But one verse has the power to realign everything:
“You are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.” (Mark 8:33)
In this episode of the Moms Do Business Different podcast, I shared how the Lord used this verse to gently, but firmly, rebuke me. Just like He did Peter.
This wasn’t just a conviction. It was a course correction. And today, I want to help you experience that same Christian business mindset shift.

In Mark 8, Peter pulls Jesus aside to rebuke Him. Jesus, predicting His suffering and death, is met with resistance by a well-meaning friend. But Jesus doesn’t let the moment slide, He says, “Get behind me, Satan.”
Why?
Because Peter, though sincere, was prioritizing comfort, familiarity, and his own desires over God’s divine plan.
Sound familiar?
In our businesses, we do this all the time:
You might be operating from a “things of man” mindset if:
None of these desires are inherently wrong, but when they take precedence over God’s will, we risk building something He never asked us to.
Ask yourself:
You can build a profitable, powerful business as a Christian mom, without sacrificing your peace or your faith. But it starts with your mindset. And if Jesus had to rebuke Peter (a disciple who meant well) maybe there’s a loving rebuke waiting for us too.
Let it realign you.
