Episode #151
Our Christian faith isn’t something that we set aside when we clock in at work. In fact, Paul said that we were supposed to pray without ceasing. That means we are to act with our faith at all times.
Join Ryan as he interviews Jerry Meeks, a legendary luxury home builder, renowned thought-leader, and author. Jerry’s journey of faith has brought him from humble beginnings to founder & CEO of Desert Star Construction, and his secret? You could say it was putting his faith to work.
