What if you knew Jesus was returning to earth sometime in 2025?
Before you write me citing Bible passages quoting, “no one knows the hour or the day” of Christ’s return, let’s remember that the Bible also says Jesus will return like a thief in the night. That means anytime, including tonight or tomorrow or in the next 365 days. I remember a song by Larry Norman where the refrain was, “… I wish we’d all been ready”
So, even though we do not know when Jesus may return, let’s not say that he can’t come back sooner than later. Since it’s possible that He might come back this week or this year and not just after you’re dead what might you do differently in 2025?
Would you run your company differently? Give away more money? Tell your employees about the love of Jesus? Call an employee meeting and bring in someone to talk about reasons there is a God? Apologize for something you’ve done to offend a team member? Write an email to all team members sharing how you came to believe in Jesus? Put together a library of Christian books in your lunchroom? Hire a Chaplain to minister to your team members?
The Bible is clear. We are ambassadors for the God we serve, and we are stewards of the companies and employees that God has given us to lead.
At Convene we’ve put together a list of 100+ things you can do to be more faith forward as you head into 2025.

So as 2025 begins, why not take a moment today to sit down, pause and think about what you would do differently if Jesus was returning in 2025.
Speaking of doing things differently, you’re invited to join us at our Convene 2025 Regional Gatherings as we have conversations about positioning your business for making an impact that leads to eternal ROI.
Thanks for being willing to think about eternity with me. Remember, your firm is a vehicle, for use by God, in the lives of people, as they serve others. If your plan works, there may just be one more person in heaven because of you and there’s always room for one more person on those streets of gold.
