246. The Strategy That Took Joseph From the Pit to Power - with PJ Vescovi

Joseph wasn’t promoted for a gift… it was strategy.Zach Rippey and PJ Vescovi unpack one of the most overlooked lessons in the story of Joseph. It wasn’t just dream interpretation that changed history — it was wisdom, stewardship, humility, and a strategy that solved a coming crisis.We talk about what it really means to “strategize with God,” how to pursue Heaven’s agenda in business and content creation, and why obedience is often the path of the most resistance — but also the path that produces the most fruit. PJ shares how God uses believers under secular leadership, why self-promotion often gets refined out of us in the “pit seasons,” and how the way you see God will determine how you steward what He puts in your hands.Zach also shares the behind-the-scenes story of how a humbling season — including going back to work at Outback — led to a viral episode that reached millions of people around the world. It’s a powerful reminder that preparation, systems, and faithful stewardship matter when the next wave comes.If you’re building a podcast, business, ministry, or message, this conversation will challenge you to stop chasing worldly metrics and start solving real problems with Heaven’s blueprint.Get Peter Vescovi's book The Great Money Reform: https://greatmoneyreform.com/Work with Zach on a Speech: https://www.rippeywrites.com/contactBook a paid 1 on 1 stategy call for your podcast: https://tidycal.com/zachrippey23/1-on-1-strategy-call-for-podcast-launch-and-growth Want to hear more about Zach’s podcast coaching program: https://tidycal.com/zachrippey23/the-power-of-the-pod-discovery-call Launch, grow, and scale your podcast FREE VIDEO: https://youtu.be/ADMIvLFDyAc?si=NN4kw-NOfzU7c3qc Book Zach Rippey to Speak or Perform Comedy here: https://www.gigsalad.com/zach_rippey-christian_comedian_speaker_alva 🤝 Partner with I Like Birds Ministry 🕊️🎁 Get a Free 7-Day Trial on Patreon!https://www.patreon.com/ILikeBirds 🕊️: Make Donations on our Site:https://ilikebirdsministry.com/support 📘: 21 Days in Africa: Amazon: https://a.co/d/3iFskiYSigned Copy + Free Gift: https://ilikebirdsministry.com/shop/p/21-days-in-africa-signed-paperback 🧢: Bird Merch: https://ilikebirdsministry.com/shop 🩵 Paypal:https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=C55JZNGUB97EE ✊🏽: Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/zachrippey23 📚 I Like Books  📚 Get 20% off some of your favorite books: https://www.faithandflame.com/pages/my-shop/zachrippey Use code "ILIKEBIRDS20 at checkout.🧡 Donate to The Suubi Project + Sponsor a Child: https://suubiproject.org/ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬EPISODE SPONSORS:Are you in the DFW & need a new appliance? Text Jamie Eldridge & let him know what you need: ☎817-659-6587Get your I Like Birds discount code here: https://www.appliancestorenearmetx.com/ilikebirdsAlpha and Omega Pest Control | DFW Need your bugs GONE? One Call Kills Them All! Call Tim Davis @ 817-426-4445 and this will be the beginning & the end of your pest problems:
