Sunday Jun 11, 2023
Sunday Jun 11, 2023
Pastor Roger Kelly is many things, including a speaker, author, and businessman. These things branched out from his realization that there were similarities in what was needed in ministry and in the practical world. Through God-given Wisdom and hard work, he’s built businesses that have made so many people’s lives better.
In this episode, we talk about his journey. We also talk about other things, such as:
- Why are people scared of leadership?
- How leadership should be a solution and a responsibility … not a title
- How real leadership is needed to change culture
- What is the law of abundance and how can you apply it in your life?
- And much more
Grab a hot coffee (or iced - if that's your thang) and listen in!

Valerie's Bio:
Valerie has been in the ministry most of her life, she taught her first Sunday school class in high school. She was excited to teach about creation…except when the students began to eat the worms she had made for the lesson!
She has been on staff at churches or heading up her own ministry for over 25 years. She is creative, a life learner, very tribal (loves relationships that last), and is a little quirky. Her passions as of now are teaching, visiting other nations, writing, and church planting.
Valerie's mentors are all revivalists and have pursued God's presence in their lives: Ruth Heflin Ward, John Paul Jackson, Steve and Saundra Long, and John and Patricia Bootsma.

- What is the difference between a Kingdom business person and a Christian business person?
- Can entrepreneurs hear from God?
- Does God care about your business?
- Do you feel a Godly calling to entrepreneurship and need direction?
- Are you already an entrepreneur but feel stuck?
In this episode of “Chasing the Kingdom” I talk with Valerie Ellis about these subjects. Valerie Ellis is an International speaker and has made it her goal to teach others how to hear God’s voice better for themselves so that they can grow closer to Him.
We live in a hurting world and it needs people who hear from God! Do you want to be one of those people? Then tune in!
Notes:
I wanted to correct myself. I mentioned a scripture where God spoke from heaven and, although some heard Him, there were some who had mistaken His voice for thunder. The scripture is actually John 12:28-29:
Father, glorify Your name.” Then a voice came out of heaven: “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.” So the crowd of people who stood by and heard it were saying that it had thundered; others were saying, “An angel has spoken to Him.”
Also, the other scripture I mentioned is Job 33:14:
For God speaks again and again, though people do not recognize it.
