			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Summary: Influential Christian business leaders convene in Denver, CO for the 3rd Annual Kingdom Economic Yearly Summit KEYS.</p>
<p>Denver, Colorado, December, 21, 2009 &#8212; Christian business and financial representatives from at least 15 nations and 40 U.S. states will convene Feb. 3-6, 2010 in Denver at the 3rd Annual Kingdom Economic Yearly Summit (KEYS), according to Dr. Bruce Cook, Summit convener and host. “We have the top Christian marketplace thought leaders coming together to offer economic strategies and solutions for today’s troubled times,” said Cook.</p>
<p>Theme for the event is “Fathering Marketplace Leaders: Prospering in Economic Crisis.”</p>
<p>Dr. Lance Wallnau, President of the Lance Learning Group, Keller, TX and Os Hillman, President of Marketplace Leaders Ministries, Cumming, GA will keynote the 2010 Summit along with Dr. Pat Francis, President of Elomax Inc., Pat Francis Ministries and Kingdom Covenant Centre, Toronto, Ontario; Tamara Lowe, best selling author and Executive Vice President and co-founder of Get Motivated Seminars, Inc., Tampa, FL; and Rich Marshall, author of God@Work, Vols. I &amp; II and President of R.O.I. Leadership International, Highlands Ranch, CO; Rick Joyner, best selling author of The Final Quest and numerous other books and founder and senior leader of MorningStar Ministries, Fort Mill, SC.</p>
<p>Other leaders speaking at KEYS 2010 include top-producing real estate broker, author and speaker Kenn Renner, Austin, TX; international business attorney &amp; CEO Carolita Oliveros, president of Oliveros &amp; Associates PC, Tucson, AZ; Al Caperna, CEO of CMC Group, Inc. and Marketplace Leader for Call2All, Bowling Green, OH; Dr. Francis Myles, pastor of Breakthrough City Kingdom Embassy, McKinney, TX and author of The Order of Melchizidek; David van Koevering, physicist, inventor and president of Elsewhen, Cleveland, TN; and John Muratori, author of Rich Church, Poor Church and President of John Muratori Ministries, Senior Pastor of Calvary Life Family Worship Center and Executive Director of Turning Point Christian Center, Cheshire, CT.</p>
<p>“God is moving powerfully in the marketplace,” said Cook, KEYS founder. “What’s happening is both a market correction and a marketplace reformation,” he added, “and the global financial turmoil and shaking of economies, nations, markets, institutions and currencies has helped create or trigger widespread fear and a crisis of belief in many people. In response, a growing number of business men and women are turning to God, discovering prayer and Biblical principles, choosing faith over fear, and re-examining their assumptions and beliefs about finances, investing, debt, retirement and stewardship in light of current conditions,” he stated.</p>
<p>Patterned loosely after the World Economic Forum, but with a Christian focus, the 4-day Summit will also feature Ken Beaudry, President of Beaudry Oil Co., Elk River, MN; Morris Ruddick, President of Ruddick Intl. and Global Strategic Initiatives Foundation, Denver, CO; Kyle Newton, President &amp; CEO of InVision and Newton Inc, Fort Worth, TX; Shawn Bolz, president of Expression58 Ministries, Los Angeles, CA and author of several books; Robert Ricciardelli, former sales executive and President of Visionary Advancement Strategies and Converging Zone Network, Black Mountain, NC; and Teri Werner, business coach and consultant, author of Train Wreck to Triumph and former CEO, Mesquite, TX; Michael Pink, best-selling author, business coach and former sales trainer and corporate executive, Sarasota, FL; and Paul Cuny, retired business executive, author, and president of Marketplace Leadership International, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL.</p>
<p>In addition, speakers will include Dr. Peter Wagner, President of Wagner Leadership Institute and Global Harvest and author of 80 books, Colorado Springs, CO; Peter Roselle, pastor and registered securities dealer and wealth manager for a major Wall Street firm; John L. Sorenson Jr., president of Covenant Bancorp., Chicago, IL; Dr. Marlene McMillan, president, Liberty Ministries, Irving, TX; Jim Barthel, President &amp; CEO of Metals Treatment Technologies LLC and Kingdom Business Alliance (KBA), Arvada, CO; and Dr. Bruce Cook, President, VentureAdvisers Inc., Kingdom House Publishing and Glory Realm Ministries, Leander, TX.</p>
<p>“KBA is very pleased to co-sponsor this year’s KEYS event,” said Barthel. “Having attended each of the previous KEYS, I know that those who attend will experience a ‘Mountain Top’ experience unlike any other and will advance in their marketplace purpose, position, passion and power for the Lord,” he added. “This event is for anyone who works or leads in a business environment, as well as ministry leaders desiring to better understand the marketplace and how to relate to business leaders.”</p>
<p>Venue for KEYS 2010 will be Faith Bible Chapel International, located at W. 62nd Ave. &amp; Ward Road in Arvada, CO. Schedule is 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily February 3-5 and 8:30 am to 1:00 pm Feb. 6th.

		<description><![CDATA[ The Time Has Come! Today more and more people are going into business for themselves. It&#8217;s currently reported that over 25% of all adult Americans are self-employed, with many more considering going into business for themselves. People work out of their homes today  because technology has brought us to a place where we no longer need an office environment to be productive. A wide variety of  jobs can can be worked from remote locations. The computer, email, and cellular telephones have changed forever the way businesses operate. And with the low cost of equipment and technology it has become more affordable to go into business for yourself and compete with the big corporations. I believe there are three main reasons why people go into business. First, some just want to create a job for themselves, especially in this uncertain economy. Either they were unable to find a job or they were tired of working for someone else or  they were terminated, which is a common scenario these days. Second, some people go into business to get rich. Greed is their motivation. There is nothing wrong with making money, but going into business just to make money is selfish and self-centered and rarely, if ever, works. And third, some go into business because they have a desire to be in business, to offer a better product or service. They have a vision, they&#8217;re on a mission and they won’t be stopped. These people see themselves as servants. These are the people who will succeed. Most of the people who go into business for one of the first two reasons will fail.  It&#8217;s a fact that nearly 62% of all businesses dissolve within their first six years and only 20% of all businesses survive ten years. Why do most businesses fail? I see four main reasons. First, the owner(s) lacked sufficient knowledge. They lack knowledge of God’s Word; knowledge of legal, accounting, and financial principles;and of  marketing; purchasing; employee relations and the business side of business. A second reason is that the owner entered the wrong business either by entering an overcrowded market or offering something people didn&#8217;t want to buy. Third, the owner failed to keep pace with a changing marketplace. And fourth, they didn&#8217;t have enough capital to complete what they&#8217;d started. All the reasons for failure listed above can be avoided if you know how. For Christians the keys to success in business are: You must know that you have been called by God to be in business. Without that knowledge, you&#8217;ll not be able to withstand the tests that are certain to come.  We&#8217;re all tested. You must have a vision of what the Lord has called you to do. You must be committed to being the best. You must have a servant&#8217;s heart, one that is customer oriented and values your employees. You must be a wise steward and a good overseer. You must be realistic as to what you can and can&#8217;t do. You must be consistent and self-motivated. You must learn to persevere and trust the Lord. You must learn as Jesus did, not to “make decisions based on what your eyes see and your ears hear” but rather on what the Lord tells you. You must learn to let the “joy of the Lord be your strength.” My desire is to help Christian Business Owners and Christian &#8220;would be&#8221; business owners navigate the often rough and uncharted territory of business ownership. So, if you&#8217;re thinking of starting a business, or if you have a business that&#8217;s struggling, this website is for you. This website will not make you a success, but listening and relying on Jesus will. May the Lord richly bless you as you follow the path He has called you to. Richard Fox ]]></description>
