In this powerhouse Jam Session, Mitch Matthews sits down with Chris Grainger — engineer turned content juggernaut and founder of The Lion Within Us, a top-tier podcast and community equipping Christian men to lead with purpose.

Chris shares how he transitioned from corporate podcasting to creating over 500 episodes that inspire, challenge, and equip Christian men in their roles at home, at work, and in their faith.

From interviewing icons like The "5 Love Language's" Gary Chapman, to Korn's Brian 'Head' Welch, and from Duck Dynasty -- the late great Phil Robertson -- to creating high-impact devotionals on the YouVersion Bible app (which now has nearly 1 billion downloads!), Chris is a model of aligned purpose and creative output.

🚀 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How Chris prevents burnout while producing a massive volume of meaningful content.

• Why “having a clear why” is his ultimate secret weapon.
