This Is What Faith in Action Looks Like
From surviving war in Syria to building one of Richardson, Texas' most beloved cafes — Jihad’s story is a testament to grit, faith, and never giving up. He came to America not to take, but to build. In this episode, Jihad Wadi shares the unfiltered truth about fleeing oppression, finding opportunity in the U.S., and turning pain into purpose.
He talks about starting over with nothing, risking everything for freedom, and why he feeds hundreds for free without fanfare. This isn’t just a story about food — it’s about family, faith, hustle, heartbreak, and the power of just earning it.
Stick around till the end for a moving call to prayer — and one of the most honest conversations you’ll hear this year.
