Trading with Jesus
Trading with Jesus is a devotional podcast for traders. It focuses on spiritual grounding, discipline, and peace amid market volatility. Each episode encourages listeners to slow down, trust Christ, and trade from a place of rest instead of fear.
Episodes
Execute Faithfully, Release the Outcome
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 12, and this chapter is all about faith, obedience, promise, and stepping forward when you cannot see the full picture. God tells Abram to leave his country, his people, and his father’s household and go to a land that He would show him. Abram does not receive every detail up front. He receives a promise and a call to trust.
Faithfulness Over Recognition
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 11, and this chapter gives us one of the clearest pictures in Scripture of what happens when human ambition gets disconnected from God. The people at Babel came together and said, “Let us make a name for ourselves.” They wanted security, significance, recognition, and greatness, but they wanted all of it apart from God.
Zoom Out — God Sees the Whole Picture
New day, new week, but with today being a bank holiday, this is a good opportunity to slow down, stay out of unnecessary action, and use the time to reflect, backtest, and sharpen your process. Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 10, and at first glance this chapter can look like nothing more than a long list of names, nations, and family lines. But when we slow down, we see something bigger: God is wo
Your P&L Changes. Jesus Doesn’t
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 9, and this chapter is centered around covenant, faithfulness, mercy, and new beginnings. After the flood, God speaks to Noah and establishes a covenant with him, promising never again to destroy the earth by flood. Then He gives the rainbow as a sign of that promise. What stands out is this: God’s faithfulness was not built on Noah’s perfection. It was built on God’
God Is Still Working While You Wait
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 8, and this chapter is all about what happens after the storm. The floodwaters begin to recede, the ark comes to rest, the dove returns with an olive leaf, and for the first time in a long time, Noah can see signs that a new beginning is coming. But the chapter starts with something powerful: “God remembered Noah.” That does not mean God had forgotten him. It means G
God’s Provision Is Greater Than the Storm
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 7, and this chapter gives us one of the clearest pictures in Scripture of judgment, obedience, rescue, and refuge. The floodwaters rise, the world outside the ark is overtaken, but Noah and his family are preserved because they trusted what God said and entered the place of safety He provided. And when we look at this chapter through the lens of the Gospel, the ark p
Preparation Before Pressure
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 6, and this chapter gives us a powerful picture of what it looks like to remain faithful when the world around you is moving in the opposite direction. Genesis 6 describes a world filled with corruption, violence, and wickedness. Humanity had drifted so far from God that Scripture says His heart was deeply grieved. But then we get one of the most important verses in
Before You Walk With Price, Walk With Christ
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 5, and at first glance this chapter can feel like just a long genealogy. Name after name. Generation after generation. “And he died.” But buried inside that repetition is a powerful message about sin, hope, faithfulness, and ultimately Jesus Christ.
Master Your Heart Before the Market
Today we’re in Genesis Chapter 4, and this chapter shows us something every believer and every trader needs to understand: if you do not deal with what is happening in your heart, eventually it will show up in your actions.
Truth Over Temptation
As we step into a new trading week, Genesis Chapter 3 gives us one of the most important lessons we can carry with us: not every voice deserves to be trusted.
Your Identity Is Bigger Than Your Performance
Sundays are a good reminder that before the charts, before the goals, before the money, before all the noise of the week, we need to come back to Jesus. Genesis Chapter 2 gives us a beautiful picture of that because it shows us a God who is not distant. He is personal. He forms Adam from the dust, breathes life into him, places him in the garden, gives him purpose, and provides everything he need
Before the Charts, There Was Christ
As we head into the weekend, this is a good time to slow down, step away from the charts for a moment, and refocus on what matters most. Trading can consume a lot of our attention during the week, but today I want to take us all the way back to the beginning — Genesis Chapter 1 — because before there was ever a market, before there was money, before there was business, before there was anything we
Your Failure Is Not Final
John chapter 21 brings us to a beautiful moment after the resurrection. Jesus is alive, the tomb is empty, and yet the disciples are still trying to understand what life looks like now. Peter and several others return to fishing, something familiar, something they know how to do. They work through the night and catch nothing. Then Jesus appears on the shore.
The Risen King Changes Everything
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 20 brings us to the foundation of everything we believe: Jesus Christ is risen.
You Don’t Have to Prove Yourself
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 19 brings us to the cross, the place where the darkest moment in human history becomes the center of our hope.
Stay Steady When Pressure Hits
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 18 brings us into one of the darkest moments in the Gospel, but it also gives us one of the clearest pictures of the strength, authority, and faithfulness of Jesus.
Let Truth Change You
It’s Monday, and before we think about the charts or the week ahead, John chapter 17 brings us into one of the most intimate moments in all of Scripture. Jesus is praying to the Father just before the cross, and in that prayer we get a glimpse of His heart, His mission, and His love for His people.
Christ Has Already Won
It’s Sunday, so before we think about the week ahead, John chapter 16 brings us back to the person and promises of Jesus Christ.
Stay Close to Jesus
It’s Saturday, and before we review the charts or think about what needs to change next week, John chapter 15 brings us back to something even more important: where our life, strength, and fruitfulness actually come from.
The Market Is Uncertain. Jesus Is Not
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 14 brings us face-to-face with the identity, promises, and presence of Jesus Christ.
The King Who Knelt
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 13 gives us a picture of Jesus that completely overturns the world’s definition of greatness.
Surrender Before Success
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 12 brings us into the final days before the cross, and it teaches us a lot about worship, kingship, belief, sacrifice, and what it really means to follow Jesus.
Ask for Wisdom Before Profit
It’s Tuesday, and before we look at the charts today, Luke chapter 11 gives us a powerful lesson about prayer, persistence, provision, and the condition of our hearts.
Delay Is Not Absence
It’s Monday, and before we look at the charts, John chapter 11 gives us a powerful reminder about trusting Jesus when His timing does not make sense.
The Voice You Follow Matters
It’s Sunday, so before we think about the week ahead, John chapter 10 gives us a powerful picture of who Jesus is and why His voice should carry more weight than every other voice competing for our attention.
Stop Trading What You Want to See
It’s Saturday, so today is a good day to slow down, look back over the week, and ask God to help us see clearly. John chapter 9 is a powerful story about a man who was blind from birth, but the deeper message is about more than physical sight. It is about recognizing who Jesus is and being willing to admit when we cannot see as clearly as we think we can.
Bring It Into the Light
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 8 gives us one of the strongest declarations Jesus makes about Himself: “I am the light of the world.”
Not Every Move Is Your Move
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 7 gives us a powerful picture of Jesus standing in the middle of controversy, confusion, and division while still moving according to the Father’s timing.
Stop Chasing Temporary Bread
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 6 gives us a powerful reminder about provision, identity, and what actually satisfies us.
You Already Know What Needs to Change
Before we look at the charts today, John chapter 5 gives us a powerful picture of who Jesus is and the authority He carries.
The Market Can Pay You, But It Can’t Satisfy You
It’s Monday, and before we look at the charts or think about the week ahead, John chapter 4 gives us a powerful reminder about what actually satisfies the human heart.
Stop Trying to Earn What Jesus Gives Freely
It’s Sunday, and before we think about the week ahead, John chapter 3 brings us back to the heart of the Gospel. This chapter gives us one of the most famous verses in Scripture, but before we get to John 3:16, Jesus has a conversation with Nicodemus that exposes something every one of us needs to understand.
The Miracle Was the Message
It’s Saturday, so today I want to slow things down and stay mostly in the Word. John chapter 2 gives us two powerful scenes that continue the case John began making in chapter 1 about the identity and authority of Jesus.
The Word, the Creator, The King
Before we look at the charts today, I want to spend some time in John chapter 1 because this chapter gives us one of the clearest biblical foundations for understanding exactly who Jesus is. John does not slowly build up to the deity of Christ. He opens with it. John 1:1 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John is deliberately taking us back to G
The Storm Didn’t Stop the Purpose
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 28 gives us a powerful final reminder from the book of Acts: circumstances can restrict you, disappoint you, and even knock you off course, but they cannot stop the purpose of God.
Don’t Let Fear Become the Strategy
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 27 gives us a powerful reminder that when everything around us feels chaotic, we still have a choice about where we place our confidence
Your Past Can Become Your Testimony
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 26 gives us a powerful reminder that God can completely transform a life and then use that transformation for His purpose.
The Detour Still Has Purpose
It’s Monday, a new trading week is here, and Acts chapter 25 gives us a powerful reminder that just because the path looks complicated does not mean God has lost control.
Don't Force The Outcome
It’s Sunday, so before another trading week begins, Acts chapter 24 gives us a powerful reminder about how to carry ourselves when the outcome is delayed, the situation feels unfair, and we are tempted to get impatient.
Trust God in the Chaos
It’s Saturday, so the charts are closed and today gives us a chance to slow down, reflect on the week, and remember something Acts chapter 23 makes very clear: chaos does not mean God has lost control.
Your Past Is Not Your Identity
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 22 gives us a powerful reminder that your past does not get the final word over your life. Paul stands before an angry crowd and tells the story of who he used to be, how Jesus met him, and how that encounter completely changed his direction.
Obedience Over Comfort
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 21 gives us a powerful picture of what obedience looks like when the path ahead is uncomfortable. Paul knows hardship is waiting for him in Jerusalem, yet he remains committed to what God has called him to do.
Faithful Over Profitable
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 20 gives us a powerful reminder that faithfulness is not about having an easy journey. It is about staying committed to what God has called us to do even when pressure, uncertainty, and difficulty show up along the way.
Christ Over Control
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 19 gives us a powerful reminder that real transformation in Christ requires more than inspiration. Sometimes it requires us to let go of the very things that keep pulling us backward.
Keep Going, God Is With You
It’s Monday, a fresh trading week is in front of us, and Acts chapter 18 gives us a powerful reminder for the moments when we feel tired, resisted, or unsure if we should keep going. Paul arrives in Corinth, a difficult city with plenty of opposition, but God meets him there with provision, community, and reassurance.
The Market Is Not Your Master
It’s Sunday, so before another trading week begins, Acts chapter 17 gives us a powerful reminder about what deserves our attention, our trust, and ultimately our worship. Paul walks into Athens and finds a city full of ideas, philosophies, and idols. Everybody is searching for truth, but many are looking in the wrong places. That sounds a lot like the world we live in now, and honestly, it can sou
Closed Doors, God’s Direction
It’s Saturday, so today gives us a chance to step away from the charts, slow down, and reflect on something Acts chapter 16 makes very clear: sometimes a closed door is not rejection. Sometimes it is redirection.
Grace Over Performance
It’s Friday, the end of another trading week, and Acts chapter 15 gives us a timely reminder about grace, pressure, and the danger of believing that our worth has to be earned. The early Church was wrestling with whether Gentile believers needed to follow the Law of Moses in order to truly belong. The answer was clear: salvation comes through the grace of Jesus Christ, not human performance.
Resilient in Christ
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 14 reminds us that faithfulness does not mean everything will be easy. Sometimes obedience comes with resistance, growth comes with pressure, and the very season that feels the hardest is the one God is using to strengthen us the most.
Purpose Over Pressure
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 13 reminds us that God does not call us to move without direction. He calls us with purpose, prepares us through His Spirit, and teaches us to trust Him even when the path ahead is not completely
Faith Over the Outcome
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 12 gives us a powerful reminder about what to do when pressure feels heavy and circumstances seem completely out of our control. Peter is in prison, James has already been killed, Herod is increasing the persecution, and from a human perspective, the situation looks terrible. But Acts 12:5 tells us that the Church was earnestly praying to God for Pe
Led by the Spirit
It’s Monday, a new trading week is here, and before we look at the charts, Acts chapter 11 gives us a powerful reminder about staying open to God’s direction. Sometimes we can get so attached to our expectations, routines, and way of doing things that we resist the very change God is trying to use for our growth.
Let God Challenge Your Perspective
It’s Sunday, so before another trading week begins, this is a good time to slow down and make sure our perspective is aligned with Christ. Sometimes the biggest thing God wants to change is not our circumstances, but the way we see them.
Let Jesusk Change the Trader
It’s Saturday, so today gives us a chance to step away from execution and look a little deeper. We spend a lot of time trying to improve our strategy, refine our entries, and become more consistent in the market. But Acts chapter 9 reminds us that sometimes the biggest transformation God wants to make is not in our system. It is in us.
Scattered, Not Stopped
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 8 gives us a powerful reminder that what feels like disruption is not always destruction. Sometimes God uses the very thing that scattered you to move you into the place where He wants to use you.
Don't Resist the Refining
Before we look at the charts today, Acts chapter 7 gives us a hard but necessary reminder: sometimes the biggest obstacle to growth is not what is happening around us, but what we refuse to change within us. Stephen stands before the Sanhedrin and walks them through generations of God’s faithfulness, while also exposing a repeated pattern of people resisting what God was trying to do.
Protect The Mission
Before we get into the charts today, Acts chapter 6 gives us a lesson that applies to far more than church leadership. It teaches us about focus, delegation, service, and protecting what God has actually called us to do. Because sometimes the biggest threat to your purpose is not something bad. Sometimes it is simply too many good things competing for your attention.
Integrity Before Results
Before we look at the charts today, I want us to think about something that matters far more than whether we finish green or red: who are we becoming when nobody else is watching? Acts chapter 5 reminds us that God is not only concerned with what people see on the outside. He cares about the condition of our hearts.
Boldness Over Fear
It’s Monday, a fresh trading week is in front of us, and before we think about entries, targets, or what the market might do, Acts chapter 4 gives us something even more important to carry into today: boldness that comes from being with Jesus.
More Than What You Asked For
It’s Sunday, which means today is a chance to slow down, reset, and prepare our hearts before another week begins. Before we think about charts, setups, or what we want from the market, Acts chapter 3 gives us a powerful reminder: sometimes we come to God asking for one thing, while He is preparing to give us something far greater.
Filled Before We Move
Acts 2 is where the waiting from Acts 1 turns into movement. In Acts 2:1-4, the disciples are together on the day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit fills the room like a rushing wind and rests on them like tongues of fire. The promise Jesus gave them had arrived.
Wait for the Power
Today we’re beginning the book of Acts, and Acts 1 starts with something many of us struggle with: waiting. Jesus has risen from the dead. The disciples know He is alive and that He has a mission for them. But in Acts 1:4-5, Jesus tells them not to leave Jerusalem yet. They are to wait for the promise of the Father, the Holy Spirit. They had the assignment, but they didn't yet have permission to e
He is Risen
Today we’re closing out the Gospel of Luke with Chapter 24, and there could not be a better way to finish. Jesus is alive.

Faithful Under Pressure
Today we’re in Luke Chapter 22, and this chapter brings us into one of the most intense moments of Jesus’ earthly ministry. Betrayal is unfolding. The cross is approaching. The disciples are struggling to understand what’s happening. Yet through all of it, Jesus remains faithful to the Father.
Stay Watchful, Stay Ready
Today we’re in Luke Chapter 21, and one of the strongest messages Jesus gives us is this: stay watchful, stay faithful, and don't allow the uncertainty around you to move your trust away from God.
Jesus Has the Final Authority
Today we're camping out in Luke 20, where Jesus is confronted again and again by people trying to challenge His authority, trap Him with questions, and undermine His identity. Yet through every confrontation, Jesus remains completely composed because He knows exactly who He is and whose authority He carries.
Faithful Stewards of the King
Today we're camping out in Luke 19, a chapter that reminds us Jesus isn't just interested in changing our circumstances—He's interested in transforming our hearts.
Humble Faith Wins

The Narrow Path of a Disciple
