God continues to illuminate our minds concerning the remarkable call upon marketplace saints. The vision goes beyond financial increase or influence to one core purpose – the expansion of the Kingdom of God!

By learning to have the proper perspective and responses to our failures, we, too, can learn the lessons and move forward to fulfill our destinies.
