Are you tired of taking shortcuts that leave you stuck? Do you have the guts to wait on God’s timing, lead your family with strength, and rise to the next level?

In this 'Average Joe' conversation, Pastor Jim Ramos sits down with longtime friend Chris Hancock—a man who’s battled addiction, built a thriving business, and learned what it means to love his wife and lead with courage. Chris proves that “average” men, when surrendered to God, can live anything but average lives.

Whether you’re battling in your own “stress bubble” or seeking encouragement to level up your walk with God, this episode will challenge and inspire you to keep climbing.
