“Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” – 1 Corinthians 10:31
Hey friend, If you’re anything like me, you didn’t wake up one day with everything perfectly mapped out. You’ve probably Googled more “how to start a Christian business” questions than you care to admit—and maybe you’ve wrestled with how to do it in a way that honors God and actually feels doable.
That’s where I found myself. I didn’t want flashy, I wanted faithful. Tools that didn’t cost a fortune but actually helped me bring my God-given ideas to life—with peace, purpose, and maybe a little bit of grit and grace along the way.
So here it is—three tools I use weekly (if not daily!) to keep Kingdom Purpose Portal running, create content, and serve my community. These have helped me write books, sell products, share my heart, and grow without losing what matters most.
🌐 1. DreamHost – My Online Home for All Things Kingdom
So let me just be honest: I needed a website, but I really needed something I could figure out without having to take a course in tech support.
Enter: DreamHost.
This is where my site, Kingdom Purpose Portal, lives. It’s simple, reliable, and it gives me my own digital space to share what God’s doing through this vision. I can blog, add affiliate links, update my store—you name it.
Whether you’re launching a Christian resource hub, a blog, a store, or something that doesn’t even have a name yet… DreamHost is a solid place to start.
Why I love it:
- Easy WordPress install
- Custom domain options
- Friendly support (they’ve saved me a few times!)
👉 If you’ve been operating solely from social media, this might be your nudge to claim your online space and start building for the long haul.
🛍️ 2. Printful – Products with Purpose (Minus the Storage Closet)
So here’s the deal—I LOVE designing meaningful merch: scripture-based journals, mugs, tees… items that speak life into people’s everyday rhythms. But let’s be real, I do not have a garage full of boxes or time to pack and ship orders.
Printful to the rescue.
It’s a print-on-demand service, which means I upload my design, someone places an order, and they handle the printing, shipping, and fulfillment. I just focus on the message.
Why Printful works for me:
- Zero inventory required
- Seamlessly integrates with your site (or Etsy, Shopify, etc.)
- Great for creators who want to test designs or start small
This is one of those tools that let me walk in purpose without needing a warehouse. (Unless God calls me to that someday… and then I’ll be texting Him like, “Where’s the forklift, Lord?” 😅)
🔗 3. Lasso – Making Affiliate Links Easy (and Ethical)
Truth time: before Lasso, my affiliate life was all over the place. Broken links, forgotten links, “Where did I put that one referral code again?”… all of it.
Now I manage all my affiliate links in one clean, organized dashboard. Lasso helps me display them beautifully on my site and automatically links keywords in my posts—without being pushy or “salesy.”
It’s helped me turn resources I truly believe in into passive income streams—something I know many Christian creatives shy away from, but listen: good stewardship includes sustainability, too.
What I love:
- Gorgeous, user-friendly link displays
- Great click tracking
- Works perfectly with DreamHost and WordPress
If you share tools, books, or platforms you love, Lasso turns those heartfelt recommendations into income that supports your mission. It’s truly a blessing for creators who care more about service than sales.
💡 Final Encouragement: Start Where You Are
Look—I’m not techy. I’m not polished. But I am faithful with what I’ve been given. And I believe you can be, too.
Here’s the truth: You don’t need everything figured out. You don’t need perfection. You just need purpose, a little courage, and tools that free you to focus on what actually matters.
So start. With one blog post. With one product. With one bold, grace-filled step forward.
And if these tools help you even a fraction as much as they’ve helped me—I know you’ll be well on your way to building something meaningful and God-honoring.
Want help getting started with one of these? Or maybe you’ve found your own go-to faith-friendly tools? I’d love to hear about it. Let’s keep building this thing—in His strength, with open hands. 💛
