Episode Description: Sometimes, we all need that push to “get off of the bench and into the game.” This week’s guest, Barry Meguiar reminds and challenges us of the importance of sharing our faith with the people that we encounter. Barry is the president of Meguiar’s Inc., an industry leader in automotive detailing products. Additionally, he is the founder and president of Ignite America which exists to move people closer to Jesus through the sharing of our faith. This sharing of our faith comes from our love for God, and should be motivated by freedom and joy rather than obligation. Leading people to Jesus through the sharing our faith and our conduct is a key component of Christianity. Barry invites us to choose faith over fear and get off of the bench and into the game, by extending the authentic love that we have experienced. In this episode, Barry and Bobby will talk about:
- Living your life for God’s purpose.
- All Christians are called to full-time ministry in their individual contexts.
- What it looks like to be ignited for God.
- Boldly following the leading of the Holy Spirit.
- The joy we experience through the sharing of our faith.
- Choosing faith, not fear to be a key motivator.
- Igniting revival, one person at a time.
- How the joy of the Lord sustains us through challenging seasons in life, ministry, and business.
