fejonesliveIf you are building a business and calling it righteous, Chapter 2 of Righteousness in the Marketplace will challenge you to ask whether what you are carrying is true righteousness or just religion in disguise.
Here is a glimpse of what is waiting for you inside:
“Religion performs. Righteousness aligns. Religion wants to be seen. Righteousness wants to be surrendered. The core difference is relationship. A woman walking in righteousness isn’t perfect, but she’s deeply connected to the One who is. She walks with conviction, but not with pride. Her boldness doesn’t come from spiritual superiority, it flows from knowing God’s heart. Righteousness is anchored in humility. It’s a quiet but firm reverence for God’s standard, and a deep understanding that being used by Him is not a badge of honor, it’s a sacred assignment.”
That is just one paragraph from Chapter 2. There is so much more inside.
