I Lost Everything! | Stephen A. Hart - 060

On today’s episode of Changing, we’re joined by fellow podcaster Stephen A. Hart as he describes his relationship with Christ and how he gained faith amid multiple obstacles in his life. Stephen was incredibly successful as a business owner. After graduating from college in ‘99, Stephen found himself in the mortgage industry before starting his first business in the financial sector in 2005. In 2007, his business was thriving. Because of that, he purchased things like a million-dollar brownstone and a Jamaican wedding. His success was cut short, however, when he discovered a massive investment had tanked. How did Stephen recover from the tanked investment? Having everything ripped from under him three weeks into marriage had a massive blow to his pride. Shortly after the business collapse, so did the real estate and financial market. Everything fell apart. Left with personal debt, Stephen had to dissolve his business and start over with a new structure. Amid this turmoil, he found God. After this ordeal, Stephen wanted to understand what life was really about. He realized he needed to look to God for what's next. He changed his entire mindset and began to focus on new goals. And so, over the next ten years, he reframed everything. The way he looks at money, his life, and his legacy. How does Stephen maintain his relationship with God? Throughout the pandemic, Stephen anchored himself in Matthew 6:25-34 and Phillippians 4:6-8. His focus this last year was to go not one day at a time, but one hour at a time. Stephen’s lasting advice: change happens. We’re always working on ourselves, but over time, those changes will lead to positivity in your future if God is at the center.
