I know you can’t see it right now, but the hell you’ve walked through and may currently be walking through has the potential to be the greatest catalyst in your life.
It took me losing my life to find it. Ironic saying that, as someone who used to preach and sing these words as some sort of anthem of spiritual superiority… truth is, nobody seeks this out; not in a way that transforms you. It’s far easier and far less traumatic to sing about “rebirth” than to walk through the process.
As I stepped away from everything I’d known, walking straight through my own personal deliverance from ideas, thoughts, feelings, patterns, and people… I was told me I’d:
-Never find love again
-Never find success again
-Never find life on the other side of ministry
-Never overcome the trauma of my past to step into a healthy future
So many “nevers.”
I was told to kill myself.
I was told it would be better if I was gone.
I was told I was worthless.
I was called every name in the book.
As I lead others into their own freedom from ideas, patterns, beliefs, and habits that no longer served them, I’ve been called a heretic, received death threats, and have been told that, should there be a hell, my family would surely reside there.
I appreciate all of it, as it became fuel to step into my PASSION. Not to “prove” anything, but to give space, permission, and guidance to you who’ve questioned, doubted, failed (perceptively), and come to your own conclusions that maybe the answers you seek have been in you all along.
I now coach successful, driven men through similar seasons of transition to step into PASSION, reclaiming the POWER they perceptively lost to create a life of PURPOSE.
I coach highly ambitious dreamers in creating the life that they were made for, not the one scripted for them.
I speak across the country on stages larger than ever before, equipping a movement of leaders, influencers, and world-changers in creating a SUCCESS that is LIMITLESS.
My point is: keep going. The vision inside you exists for a reason, and I’m here for it. There will be distractions, distractors, obstacles, frustrations, tears, and a lot of fight…. Keep going. It’s all worth it.
