The Kingdom of God runs on values that look upside-down to the world: the least are greatest, surrender is strength, and the skilled and faithful are quietly raised to stand before kings. Upside-Down Kings explores what that looks like for people whose work is in business and the marketplace. Host Joshua Wilson shares Kingdom principles about faith, work, and calling — and invites others to share what God is showing them too.

Pain Might Not Be Punishment. It Might Be an Invitation with Jason Hamilton
Send us a note "The pain might not be punishment. It might be an invitation." Jason Hamilton walked with Christ for sixteen years, led men's ministries, and left a men's retreat on a spiritual high — and on the drive home, out of nowhere, had a panic attack that started an eighteen-month collapse. Sound sensitivity so severe that tearing toilet paper felt like ice picks in his brain. Six months of feeling chased by a grizzly bear, every hour, awake or asleep. Suicidal ideation for the first t...

Your Identity Is Not Your Past — Your Calling Is Above the Current
Send us a note "I am; the other stuff will become." That's the line Joshua keeps returning to in this one — a way of holding onto who God says you are while everything else is still being worked out. In this solo episode, Joshua Wilson shares from 1 John 3:1-3 and a day-three reading in his program: a long list of who God says we already are — loved, chosen, forgiven, free, a new creation, His child, an heir. The question underneath it is simple and hard. Are we listening to God's voice about...

Running on the Supernatural Operating System
Send us a note We keep trying to fix a broken operating system — living by the earthly, physical one, then wondering why the fruit it produces is faulty. What if the problem isn't the output, but the whole system we're running on? In this solo episode, Joshua opens John 14 and John 16 and sits with a question he's still walking out himself: which operating system are we actually running? He shares the picture that keeps surfacing — that there's a supernatural operating system, the Spirit of t...

A Man Will Do What He Believes He Is
Send us a note A man will do what he believes he is — not what he says, but what he actually believes, down deep. In this short solo teaching, Joshua Wilson shares what God has been showing him about belief and identity. We build our identity on sand — looks, bank account, achievements, job, status — and those things crumble because they come and go. But there's one foundation that holds: who God says you are. Joshua wrestles with the gap between the identity the world hands you and the one G...

The 7 Questions That Reveal Your Calling (Answer Them In Order)
Send us a note Most capable people don't lack drive. They lack clarity — they can't name the work that's actually theirs, who it's for, and whether it's worth their life. In this short teaching, Joshua walks through the seven questions he uses with clients to get there. The catch: you answer them in order. The world says start with "why." This goes the other way — because you can't honestly answer why until you know whose you are. Identity first. Meaning last. The seven questions are writte...

The King and the Bronze Worker (Two Gifts, One Temple)
Send us a note What if the king who built the temple never picked up a hammer? In this short solo episode, Joshua Wilson shares something he noticed reading through 1 Kings — something easy to skim past: two different men, both filled with wisdom, building one temple. Solomon was given wisdom for the vision and the plan. Huram, a bronze worker from Tyre, was given wisdom for the intricate, skilled work of the metal. Same gift from God — applied two different ways, producing two different thin...

The Two Meanings of Yield (and Why It Matters)
Send us a note What does a deal sheet have in common with a yield sign at an intersection? One word — and two meanings that look like opposites. In this short solo episode, Joshua Wilson shares something God's been showing him about the word "yield." In his world of investment banking, yield measures what comes back on your money — the return you're hoping for when you hand over control of it. But the same word has a second meaning hiding in plain sight: to stop, to surrender, to give way. Th...

Welcome to Upside Down Kings: Faith, Work, and Calling
Send us a note In this short intro, host Joshua Wilson opens Upside Down Kings with prayer and lays out the belief everything else grows from — that Jesus is the risen King of Kings, that surrender is strength, and that the faithful are quietly raised to stand before kings. This is a show about faith, work, and calling: the Kingdom principles God is showing us about how to live and work in the business world. Joshua reads the show's creed, names the words this podcast will dig into one at a t...
