🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Episode 33e

Title: Let’s See What God Does

Description:

I'm at French Park, my favorite place in the world, staring at a red-tailed hawk and getting ready to hike before launching Crumb. It's a beautiful day and I'm filled with gratitude. I talk through my journey—my job, my family, the mission, and the ache in my chest that this isn’t the end, but just the beginning. This episode is a full-bodied declaration of what Crumb is, why I’m doing it, and what I pray God will do through it. A stranger walks up mid-recording and unknowingly preaches a dog-training sermon. That’s Crumb.

I talk about:

• Saying no to AI and tactics and yes to the Spirit of God
• The ache that this isn’t the end but a glimpse of what’s coming
• My journey from cubicles to Africa to breadcrumbs
• Why I built Crumb and how I hope to serve
• Childhood prayers and early faith
• The mission behind Crumb merch, money, and ministry
• A dog park conversation that turned into a divine encounter
