If that name sounds familiar to you it’s probably because you just heard Henry mention it in the intro to this podcast as the location for where we will be hosting our Faith Driven Entrepreneur and Investor Conferences this fall.

Episode 77 - The Journey from Sexual Brokenness to Healing with Jay Stringer

Today our show takes us to Seattle to talk to Jay Stringer, the author of Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals Our Way to Healing. His book is based on a multi-year research project into the stories of 3,800 men and women to address the key drivers of unwanted sexual behavior, why people remain in a place of shame, and the journey towards a new sexual story. It was recently recognized by Outreach Magazine as one of the top resources of the year. Tragically, this is a huge issue destroying too many Faith Driven Entrepreneurs. His research is one of the most comprehensive studies on the subject, and we’re delighted he could join us on the podcast. Join Henry and William to glean from some of Jay’s experiences and hear the lessons he has for faith driven entrepreneurs...

Episode 76 - Are Christians Called to Comfort? With Super Bowl Winner and CEO of of Movement Mortgage, Casey Crawford

Today we’re talking to Casey Crawford. Casey is an Entrepreneur that left the NFL with a Super Bowl Ring and then started a company, Movement Mortgage—a Billion dollar business that Inc and several others have recognized. They’ve been known for their business, their community impact, and their ability to create a company that people want to work for. As Casey shared with us, creating a company is far from a comfortable experience. Entrepreneurs, of course, know what it’s like to be uncomfortable. Yet, there’s something in modern/Western Christianity that expects comfort. We often act as though God has called us to a life of comfort and ease, not one of stress and sacrifice. But as Casey points out, Jesus didn’t exactly live an easy life! And this is just one way he gave us a great perspective alongside a paradigm shift in this podcast episode. Listen in to hear more...

Episode 75 - The Entrepreneur's Hidden Battle with Depression with Max Anderson

On today’s episode, we invited Max Anderson to come in and help us tackle a difficult yet important topic—depression among entrepreneurs. Max writes something called The Weekend Reader, where each week he explores one big idea from culture. Recently, he dove into how depression affects entrepreneurs, and what he found was staggering—entrepreneurs are anywhere from 2-10x more likely to suffer from mental challenges. It’s a topic that’s extremely important, yet remarkably under-discussed, so we thought that with Max’s help we’d push the conversation forward today...
