Two Women in the Bible Every Businesswoman Should Learn From

What can two women from the Bible teach us about business, visibility, and showing up with faith? In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant shares powerful lessons from two extraordinary women in scripture—Lois, the grandmother of Timothy, and the Shunammite woman. Though separated by generations and circumstances, both women modeled something every woman in business needs today: intentional action, faithfulness, and the courage to move before the results are visible. Lois talks about investing in others without seeing immediate results, showing up consistently, and planting seeds that grow over time. She also shares how the Shunammite woman refused to stay passive when faced with loss and instead moved boldly toward the solution she needed. This episode also connects these biblical principles to modern business and AI visibility. As AI search changes how customers find businesses, Lois explains why consistency, trust, visibility, and showing up early matter more than ever. In this episode: • Lessons from Lois and the Shunammite woman • Why planting invisible seeds matters in business • The connection between faith and visibility • How AI search is changing local business marketing • The importance of becoming findable online • Why women must stop waiting and start showing up • Practical visibility principles for modern business owners If you are building something meaningful and wondering whether your work matters, this episode will encourage you to keep planting, keep showing up, and keep moving toward what you are called to do.
