I have known Gene Allen for around a quarter of a century, first as my small group leader then as a member of our discipleship group, as a discipleship group leader of multiple long-term groups, as a teacher and mentor of many, and, perhaps most importantly, as a close friend. Taking Care of Business is not just theology (although it contains theology) and is not just researched beliefs from other people’s experiences (although it is well-researched). More importantly, it is rooted and grounded in Gene’s transparent and honest account of his life, with all the peaks and valleys. The reader will not just learn about Gene’s life story but will also find a wealth of hard-earned wisdom that leads to a richer life at the place where faith and occupation intersect. —Dennis Powell, Senior Texas District Judge
The greatest leader of all time, Jesus of Nazareth, told his followers to “occupy until I come.” Occupy means to do business. All of us have a purpose, an assignment, and business to conduct. Dr. Gene Allen has unique experiences as a great leader in the business world. Taking Care of Business will inform, instruct, and inspire you to reach new heights of success in fulfilling your assignment and reaching your dreams. The book is an adventure of experiences and expertise that combine to catapult you into your next dimension. —Dr. Mike Brown, Pastor of Faith and Wisdom Church, Founder and CEO of Strength and Wisdom Ministries
What happens when a dream is mixed with tenacious faith? Vision manifests! This account is proof that God’s economy trumps the end time schemes trying to lock you in the servitude of the fickle whims of politics and market manipulations. This is a kingdom handbook revealing the explosive dynamics that prove, in real time, that Christ can bless you in every way with a greater acceleration of increase than Satan can steal through inflation. I’ve personally known Gene Allen as his pastor, co-minister, and friend for over thirty years, Gene is not only a superb businessman but also a tremendous evangelist, teacher, and disciple, and one of the greatest spontaneous sowers I have ever known. I can attest to his superior acumen in moving with the Holy Spirit to sow timely kingdom missions, evangelism, and seed to produce phenomenal one-hundred-fold kingdom harvests. Get ready to ignite your vision through the launch codes revealed in this journal account of God’s elite special forces…strategic kingdom sowers! —Dr. James David Brown, President of Kingsway Bible College
Gene Allen is a kingdom giant anointed for business. His thirty-plus years of experience, scriptural research, and record-setting industry achievements need to be heard. His passion for helping others prosper is contagious. He and his wife, Kim, have documented how God honors the loyal, the faithful, and the obedient. Every seeker of uncommon business wisdom and a passion to prosper should read this book! —Dr. Mike Smalley, Evangelist, Author, and International Speaker
Trusting God with money is an easy concept; however, Gene Allen explains the faith required and the favor received. Taking Care of Business is a must-read for not only the business-minded but also those who are God-minded to understand and rethink our false control of managing what already belongs to God. This book balances the personal experiences of the author with lessons from Scripture. Be prepared to be enlightened and entertained. —Pastor Kaye Sims, Crystal Beach Community Church
I have been waiting for Gene’s book for many years, as his lifetime of obedience reveals the true favor of God and points out key elements of kingdom living. Gene’s experiences allowed him to conquer all the challenges he faced in Taking Care of Business. This book is a must-read. —Jimmy Sims, Mayor, CEO, and Owner of Sabine Packaging, Inc.
