Bob’s company uses about 50,000 gallons of paint each year but that wasn’t always the case.  

He has learned to partner with God and use a few “rocket science” principles to grow his painting company which started out of a Volkswagen bug with surf racks to one in the top 1% of its industry in the nation handling huge projects like stadiums, hospitals, and airports.

Is this a coincidence?

A 15-year girl was pregnant and scared.   

She needed advice and went to a local church to speak with a brand-new pastor. 

Pastor didn’t know what to say so he called a friend who just started a 20-person church in Los Angeles, CA.  A couple attending the new church had been trying unsuccessfully for 10 years to have children. 

The girl gave her baby boy up for adoption to the couple in Los Angeles.

Boy grew up and co-founded Pray.com - the worlds #1 app for daily prayer and faith content.

Pray.com impacts 13,000,000 worldwide and has been shared by 97,000,000 people.

We were honored to speak with Matthew Potter about his life and journey which led to the co-founding of Pray.com and the incredible impact it is having on the world.

Matthew Potter does not believe in accidents or luck. You do not want to miss this interview.

I have an idea for you – 

You should quit your job.  Sell your house.  Sell 80% of your belongings. Then, move to another State far far away where you only know one person.  Sound good? 

Well, that’s what Chad Wallen did.  We had a chance to get some more details. You must tune in.

Chad is the founder of a non-profit called Advance Camp which is quite literally saving the lives of young men who have no father around

Advanced Camp operates in Oregon, Texas, Florida, and soon- Tennessee.

For Chad, this verse is a command; not a suggestion—

Here are the beliefs and way of life that God our Father accepts as pure and without fault.  When widows are in trouble, take care of them.  Do the same for children who have no parents.  And don’t let the world make you impure.  James 1.27 

Chad, we are glad your RV broke down in Granbury, Texas and you decided to stay..

Meet Chuck.  

He is a lawyer… actually, no… a minister/lead pastor…actually, no…. a spiritual director…and the director of culture and spiritual formation…

Ok – he is all of that and more.
