  • Favorite Podcast

    I rarely listen to music because anytime I am driving I am listening to podcasts. This one is by far my favorite because it reminds me each time I listen who I am on this planet for, and motivates me to be aggressive!

  • Entertaining & Engaging

    This podcast is number one very entertaining. I look forward to every post and find humor and relation in his talks. I also feel like after every podcast I leave with an action step to take to make my life better and better serve God's purpose. Also - not just for men! I'm a 25 year old female and find so much value in the teachings.
