The Christian Entrepreneur
Welcome to The Christian Entrepreneur podcast! We believe in building business God's way. This is the place where faith meets business strategy. If you're passionate about deepening your walk with Christ while building a successful business and life, you're in the right space.
I'm Cody Cottle, a serial entrepreneur who has founded seven companies and brands—three of which have failed, teaching me invaluable lessons through the ups and downs. I’ve learned that my relationship with Jesus and my entrepreneurial journey are the two pillars that have shaped my life. Now, I’m on a mission to help others thrive in both faith and business, equipping them to create ventures that impact lives and advance God’s Kingdom.
On this podcast, I’ll share insights and experiences from my journey, blending faith-based principles with actionable business strategies. Plus, I’ll be joined by influential Christian entrepreneurs and thought leaders from around the world who will inspire and challenge you to take your business and faith to the next level. Together, let's build the Kingdom, one business at a time!

What’s the Difference Between Ambition and Laboring in Vain? W/Drew Romo
Join Cody as he sits down with Drew Romo, host of the Brick by Brick podcast and founder of the nonprofit UnxDisqualified. Drew takes us on a powerful journey of purpose and leadership, sharing the hard truth about the difference between ambition and laboring in vain. “Unless the Lord builds the house, the laborers build in vain” – a reminder that without God’s direction, even the best intentions can fall flat. He emphasizes that while ambition is good, it must align with God's purpose, and true success comes from staying under the "pace of grace."
Drew's message is clear: we’re called to build walls, right where we are as showcased beautifully in the book of Nehemiah in scripture. Whether it’s your business, ministry, or personal life, God has anointed you to build—starting with the "wall in front of your house." He also dives into the importance of avoiding comparison and focusing on the process of building rather than just the promise. With heartfelt conviction, Drew shares his own journey of overcoming disqualification in his own life and the mission God called him to now through his nonprofit work, helping those who feel unworthy of their God-given calling. This conversation will inspire you to step into your purpose, serve others, and stay deeply rooted in God’s Word and community.
