Every Day Matters w/ Pastor Jeff Simmons

Trusting God in Leadership and Life // Rick Welday (Ep. 22)


Listen Later

Pastor Jeff sits down with longtime friend and marketplace leader Rick Welday, recently retired after 35 years at AT&T. Shaped by Young Life and a deeper grasp of God’s grace, Rick leans on Proverbs 3:5–6 to navigate pressure, change, and big decisions.

From New York boardrooms to global teams, Rick shows what faith looks like on defense and offense—setting guardrails, leading with humility, and treating people with genuine kindness. Excellence builds credibility, opening doors for spiritual conversations the Holy Spirit is already preparing. Business isn’t a lesser call; it’s a vital place for everyday discipleship.

At home, Rick names life’s seasons instead of chasing “balance,” protects rhythms like Sunday at 5, and once turned down a major promotion to put his eighth-grade son first. His challenge: don’t waste the day—lead with love and hope, and say yes to what God puts before you. Because when we live surrendered, every day really does matter.
