Making of a Man of God | Carpool Conversation with my Dad
On the road to our men’s conference, I sat down with my dad for one of the most real and raw conversations we’ve ever had.
We talked about the making of a man of God — not just the titles, not just the talk, but the process. The pressure. The breaking. The rebuilding.
My dad shares his powerful testimony of being locked up in federal prison and how, in the lowest place of his life, he encountered God in a way that changed everything. What the enemy meant for destruction, God used for transformation.
This episode is about redemption. Responsibility. Fatherhood. Discipline. Faith forged in fire.
If you’ve ever wondered what truly shapes a man of God — this conversation is for you.

Carpool Conversation with my Dad (Conference Edition)
We are on our way to Victory Outreach World Conference 2025. As my dad approaches his 83 birthday, I felt like it was special to give him sometime to talk about his experiences in the ministry and specifically any milestone he can recall from conferences throughout the years. He’s been around for a long time & his memory still has a few more things to be thought out. Take a listen as we casually just talk about his experiences with the ministry, I hope you enjoy.

Healing from Trauma (Destroying the False-Self)
Often times we live from symptom management. Instead of addressing the wound. It’s like putting buckets out for a leak from the roof instead of fixing the roof itself. “Bucket Management" never allows you the chance to see the whole in the roof. I hope that this episode blesses you! We all can be healed and move forward with our lives!
Please share this if there is anyone who is experiencing cycles of trauma. But if this has touched you in any way please leave a review. I would love your feedback!

A Second Wind (Breathe Again)
Why is it important to catch your breath? People are either trying to catch their breath or trying to get it back from it being knocked out of them. We all have been there before.

This episode is about learning how to slow down and recuperate so that we can continue to live our best lives and not always be in survival mode.
