TSI is owned and operated by the Moore Family - Bill, Vicki, Clint and Kristen.  Back in March Vicki and Kristen attended the Economic Up Turn Seminar.  At the end of that seminar Vicki and Kristen approached me and asked if I would come along side of them and help them repurpose their company and give some direction.  I quickly said, YES!

A couple of weeks later I met with them in their office, we discussed what it meant to surrender their business to the Lord and how God might begin to work on their behalf.

Part of that discussion led us to set a date for a company dedication with all of their employee's.  We did the dedication and repented for doing business with God as after-thought rather than our first priority.  We invited Him back into His rightful place and blessed what God was going to do in the days to come.  The Moore's then proceeded to share with their employees "that as of this month, we have decided to tithe 10% of our company profits to the Lord for His Kingdom work."  Sounds like an amazing step, the only problem was the company hadn't had any profits recently and it didn't appear that any were on the way.  When the looked at the books for the close of business for April, the month they made this decision and faith step indeed there was a profit - though small in amount- it was a profit.  They quickly tithed from that profit amount as they said they would.

Well, when God pours out a blessing it usually isn't a trickle - and the next month - May - found them in even better shape.  The profits from this month allowed them to catch up on the entire year of short fall.  As Vicki stated recently,"being in business often feels like a roller coaster ride...we all tend to grip on to that safety bar in fear.  That safety bar is not what saves you if your cars jump the track, that's a false sense of security.   Instead of gripping on to it, we need to let go of our own understanding and lift our hands to the Lord and put our trust in Him.  God gave us His Son as our ticket...and we're to take others along for the ride. "
