He talks about the tension of loving God, serving people, preaching, and still feeling the weight of trying to provide for his wife and children at the same time.

Brad speaks candidly about serving under insecure and unhealthy leadership, what he calls “poisonous power,” and how difficult it was to remain honorable in environments that were no longer healthy.

It is also about wisdom, humility, gratitude, and the way God protects us even through disappointment. Brad talks about how God kept him from too much exposure too early, why fast growth can outpace character, and how the Lord taught him not to sacrifice his family on the altar of ministry. He also shares insight on giving, honoring the voice of God, spiritual maturity, and the importance of learning how to hear God clearly in both ministry and business.This episode is for the person who has ever wrestled with church hurt, financial frustration, leadership disappointment, or the pressure of trying to serve God faithfully while carrying real life responsibilities. It is also for anyone trying to build something with God without losing their peace, their family, or their heart in the process.
