As professional script writers, we often enjoy the double entendre or wordplay to make salient points. October has been one of the best months to hire new employees and since this world is experiencing an unusual level of natural, political and spiritual upheaval, using your “Hire Power” and “Higher Power” would be appropriate.
As we normally do, here are insights from professionals on our given topics.
“HIRE” POWER INSIGHTS
Effective recruitment strategies

-Use Social Media
Social media is not just for personal connections; it can also be a powerful tool for finding employees who already trust your brand. A targeted social media approach can connect you with talent who may not be actively applying but are open to the right opportunity when it comes along.
-Make Candidate Experience Seamless
Today’s job seekers expect quick, clear and respectful communication throughout the hiring process. Long wait times, vague timelines or being ghosted can damage your employer brand. In fact, 60% of candidates abandon job applications due to poor communication or an overly rigorous process. One way to avoid this is by using an applicant tracking system that can automate updates and keep candidates informed at every stage of the hiring process.
-Encourage Employee Referrals
Employee referrals are one of the most effective methods of recruitment. They are often faster, cheaper and more reliable than outside hires. In fact, employee referrals are four times more likely to get hired, according to LinkedIn. With that in mind, incentivize your employees to refer to people in their network by creating a referral program that rewards successful hires. It is a simple way to build a stronger team, boost morale and keep your employees invested in company growth.
“HIGHER” POWER INSIGHTS
Most Americans Believe in a Higher Power February 18, 2025, by George Barna

Two out of three American adults describe themselves as Christians and the most common houses of worship are Christian churches. So how did such an assortment of diverse and sometimes conflicting ideas become the dominant philosophy of life in a nation whose most common religious faith is described as “Christianity”?
Much of this worldview confusion flows from American adults redefining the nature and existence of God, according to the initial report from the American Worldview Inventory 2025, the sixth annual worldview study of American adults conducted by Dr. George Barna and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University (CRC).
In the first of a dozen worldview-related research reports that will be released by CRC this year, Barna identifies dramatic transformations in how people view supernatural deities and powers, including a decided shift away from traditional views of God. These worldview trends are leading increasing numbers of American adults to embrace a more eclectic bundle of ideas about deity and divinity.
Because understanding God (often referred to as “prime reality”) is the cornerstone of worldview development, shifting beliefs about supernatural deities and powers can have dramatic repercussions for a person’s—and a nation’s—overall worldview. As Barna explains, without a biblical understanding of God, it is difficult to develop a coherent biblical worldview built on His truth.
The Role of Faith in Business
by Peter Fry, Kua Ventures https:// kuaventures.org/the-role-of-faith-in-business/
True faith in business starts with the simple but profound idea: “Treat others how you want to be treated.” That timeless principle has been reinterpreted in modern movements like redemptive entrepreneurship, Faith-Driven Investment (FDI), and Faith-Driven Entrepreneurship (FDE), to name a few. These communities emphasize that respect, transparency, and a commitment to doing things right, even when no one is watching, are not just ideals—they are foundational to building resilient, people-centered businesses.
Faith in business is not about using scripture as a marketing tool or plastering motivational quotes around the office. It’s in the quiet moments—the CEO who extends payroll by a day to support an employee in need, the team who rejects a lucrative deal that conflicts with their values, or the investor who chooses to back businesses focused on dignity, not just dividends.
Faith is Smart Business
Investors, take note: supporting entrepreneurs who lead with faith is not a gamble—it’s a sound strategy. These businesses attract loyal employees who stick around through the ups and downs. Customers trust them, even when mistakes are made, because they know these leaders will take responsibility and fix things. Boards benefit too…from decision-making that’s grounded in clear, ethical frameworks, minimizing the risks of scandal and short-term thinking.
But as the saying goes, faith without action is empty. So, here are some simple but powerful steps I encourage every business leader to take:
Live radical transparency
Share your victories and struggles openly. When your team understands the full picture—both the highs and the lows—they become true partners in your mission, not just employees working for a paycheck.
Measure human impact
Beyond just tracking revenue growth, look at the real impact you’re having—how many families are supported, how many jobs are created, and how many lives are touched. These numbers give deeper meaning to your profits and remind everyone why the business exists in the first place.
Lead in service
When faith guides our boardrooms and our balance sheets, we create a marketplace that is not only more humane but more resilient. Ultimately, it’s not just about what we build—it’s about who we become along the way, and whose lives we touch in the process.
