Building a Spirit-Led Business — guest: Rick Avon



Conventional wisdom for entrepreneurs is to start with a business plan. Often, God has his own plan.

Rick Avon, the founder and owner of Avon Design Group in Pittsburgh, PA, didn't start with a business plan. Instead, he started and has built his company by following the lead of the Holy Spirit. He never could have foreseen the way God would take him from a professional detour as a superintendent to having his own design firm.

It has become clear to Rick that he has not been in control, and he brings us a refreshing perspective on the Holy Spirit's role in building a business.

The post Building a Spirit-Led Business — guest: Rick Avon appeared first on Throwing Mountains.
