Gottfried has consulted within our organisation for almost 2 years. He challenges, guides, supports and cares for those whom he works with, as he coaches them towards a greater personal freedom in today’s financial system. He models a Christian love, which extends far beyond his “professional” requirement. It is inspirational to observe Gottfried’s personal daily walk, which mirrors his message and reflects his close relationship with our Lord and Saviour. I personally have had the good fortune of attending several of Gottfried’s seminars on Kingdom finance, and recommend them highly. It is our individual responsibility to take this message and test it before God. In many instances, after grappling with a particular financial challenge from Gottfried, I have been challenged by God, and after amending my ways, have been blessed with a new freedom, which I previously thought was not possible. Using the tools of Gottfried’s message, it is in the seeking of God, that we find clarity and the understanding to guide us in today’s worldly financial system. As we do this with open hands and minds, we can begin to experience the blessings He holds for us. And we can better understand the privilege of serving the Almighty King, who is relevant in ALL that we do today.

When I first picked Gottfried up at the airport (Nov. 2008) I had little idea of the dramatic change it would make to my life and business. It was one of those 18 hour rushed days where a friend had asked me to get 1 hour to listen to Gottfried and see if there was a message for our church and country at this time. What was to be a squeezed 1 hour became one of the most challenging 4 hours I have had which the day stopped for and I left him back at the airport at the latest minute knowing God had spoken.
Our business is a kingdom business no doubt. We are here for Gods glory and nothing else no doubt. This pulsates how we work and has been a source of Gods life and presence with us. We thought we were radical, but looking back we were naïve at best in terms of working this out and the spiritual forces at play in business and in the money arena. Intentions were brilliant, knowing how to work it out, well God sent Gottfried to help us with that. We asked Gottfried to come back at his earliest next slot and the paradigm shift began. What a sense of freedom and joy in God it has led to, together with major changes in business structure, planning, thought and action. Since that time we have had numerous visits and discussions and have begun to see life and business in a whole new way. It has lead to the most freeing and exciting relationship with God in all of life.
The battle for sure is still there. The issues which we grapple with still seem enormous, but there is a God given set of tools and weapons with which we face them and stay centered in the peace and love, which God intended. I think the ripple effect of that first meeting with Gottfried and changes God began to bring about through that will echo to eternity and we are very grateful to God for his faithfulness and to Gottfried for his dedication to Gods kingdom and openness to hearing and staying strong in sharing even when his message is not comfortable or wanted.
