Seek and Grow Rich is the podcast for Christian parents who feel caught in the cycle of self-reliance, striving, and overwhelm—like seeds cast among thorns. Inspired by Matthew 6:33, this show is your invitation to break free from the hustle-driven mindset and step into true abundance by seeking God first.
Each episode unpacks the core domains of life, health, wealth, relationships and spirituality (fitness, faith, family and finances) through the lens of biblical wisdom, helping you shift from self-made to God-led. This show is about exposing the self-help myths that lead believers astray and replace them with kingdom principles that cultivate lasting fruit. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still missing the peace and provision God promises, this podcast will help you get unstuck.
Through scripture-based insights, practical application, my own journey, Seek and Grow Rich equips you to deepen your faith, strengthen your family, and steward your health and finances with kingdom perspective. Join us on this journey of being grounded with and growing with God—where spiritual depth fuels every area of your life, and seeking God first leads to everything else falling into place.
Are you ready to stop striving and start thriving in God's abundance? Let's seek, grow, and reap the harvest together.
034: Why Emotional Presence Matters More Than You Think
In this episode, Brett reflects on his spiritual journey, the meaning of the Kingdom of God, emotional growth as a husband, and his plans for the Men Before Marriage program and book. Brett shares how his understanding of the Kingdom of God has evolved, drawing inspiration from John Bevere's recent post on the Messenger X app is that the Kingdom is the "rule of God." He shares his interpretation that it involves both the eternal destiny of believers and the Holy Spirit's transformative work in and through us. Using the parable of the talents, Brett highlights how our actions on Earth impact our roles in heaven.
Brett also opens up about his shortcomings in meeting his wife's emotional needs, acknowledging how cultural norms have discouraged men from being emotionally vulnerable. He encourages men to seek God's help in becoming emotionally present husbands and fathers, as children learn relationship dynamics by observing their parents. He stresses that transformation is only possible through God's work, not self-effort.
Key Takeaways:
The Kingdom of God is both eternal life with God and the Holy Spirit's work in us to bear fruit and serve others.
Our earthly stewardship and obedience influence our heavenly roles (parable of the talents).
Emotional presence and vulnerability are essential for husbands and fathers, and men must rely on God for transformation.
Brett is developing the Men Before Marriage program into a book to guide men in spiritual leadership and preparation for marriage.
Here's the new Men Before Marriage community.

033: Are You Just Surviving—or Carrying the Kingdom for Your Family?
In this episode, Brett shares a personal and spiritual update centered around seeking God wholeheartedly, living with kingdom authority, and the behind-the-scenes launch of his new program, Men Before Marriage. Brett opens by discussing his recent absence, explaining it was due to deep spiritual focus and development of a God-led vision. Drawing from Scripture and teachings by John Bevere, he emphasizes what it means to "go all in" with God—obedience, surrender, and walking in love and authority.
He highlights the revelation that believers carry the Kingdom of God within them—not just waiting for heaven but empowered now to transform lives, atmospheres, and relationships. Brett shares how God led him through a process of forgiveness, showing how lingering offense can block spiritual growth and blessings.
He then transitions into the launch of Men Before Marriage, explaining how obedience, divine timing, and practical steps—including launching on the new $9 Skool platform—aligned for the project to move forward. He encourages listeners to follow God's promptings even if things aren't perfect, noting that progress and purpose matter more than polish.
Brett concludes by reminding listeners to enjoy nature, stay hydrated, and continually seek God in all areas of life.
Key Takeaways:
Going all in with God means full obedience, surrender, and choosing His ways over worldly ones.
The Kingdom of God is within you—you carry spiritual authority now, not just someday in heaven.
Unforgiveness blocks your spiritual flow; releasing offense allows peace and blessing to return.
Start before you're ready—obedience is better than perfection, especially when building for God's kingdom.

032: How God Took My Mess Up In Marriage and Gave Me a Mission
In this episode, Brett shares a personal update on his journey of surrendering every area of his life—marriage, finances, leadership—to God as of January 2025. He reflects on past mistakes, especially in his marriage, and his renewed commitment to honoring God through obedience, submission, and intentional living. A major focus of the episode is the development of his new initiative, Men Before Marriage, a biblically-based program designed to prepare single, dating, and divorced men for godly leadership and legacy.
Brett emphasizes the importance of building the program in unity with his wife—something he admits he hasn't always done—and reveals how organizing his thoughts and scriptures into a 28-page document helped him gain clarity and share vision. He also speaks about attending Life Surge, a Christian event combining faith and entrepreneurship, and how it aligns with his mission to multiply impact for the Kingdom.
The episode ends with a reminder that our ultimate purpose is to prepare ourselves and others to walk forever with God—by loving Him fully, obeying His Word, and walking in truth.
Key Takeaways:
Full Surrender Leads to Clarity: Brett's transformation began with surrendering everything to God, which unlocked clarity, purpose, and a renewed mission.
Godly Preparation Over Perfection: Men Before Marriage isn't about being perfect but about preparing hearts for leadership through biblical truth.
Purpose Is Eternal: Our true purpose is to prepare ourselves—and others—to walk forever with God, not just to succeed temporarily.
Obedience Over Activity: Religious actions mean little without knowing and obeying God's will (Matthew 7:21–23); obedience is the foundation of legacy.
