1. My wife told me this week that this has been the sweetest season of our marriage yet (22 years in).
2. Working from home has been challenging in many ways, but I've been finding more moments to step out and hang with my boys during the week, which has been a lot of fun.
3. Personal health discipline has been solid re: diet, exercise, and sleep. I'm making progress with both strength and body comp numbers I'm pursuing.
4. The main division of my main business just closed out the best month we've had in 5 years.
5. I woke up each day to enjoy new mercies from the Lord (Lamentations 3:22-23). Great is his faithfulness!
“I feel like I’ve actually been made. The weight feels in many ways lifted.”Married, four kids, business owner near Dallas
That's a rarity.
Professional: spearheaded by one of our teammates, we completed the setup of our onboarding system and training plan for our new hire that is starting Monday.
“A couple of initiatives that come to mind for high-ticket entrepreneurial communities are Entrepreneurs Organization and TEC Canada. MOAM has provided a space for men who run businesses and operate within a Christian and biblical lens to express themselves and acquire entrepreneurial insight and nuggets that are valuable far beyond what money can buy… The community is invaluable in that regard.”
“Typically, throughout our two or three video calls per week, I will come across one or two nuggets in marketing and/or sales within our business discussions. I will utilize them in my business with proven results and be enlightened by scriptural and biblically based life principles that will alter my perspective in a positive way going forward.”
“Now I played with my son for an hour in the middle of the workday. I'd rather be content with what God gives me than chase a number that costs me my family.”
“We quickly learned we were selling to everybody, which is why our sales were having a really hard time growing.”Husband and wife, outdoor adventure business
“The Holy Spirit put this purpose on my heart of being here for my wife and family, and really being steady for her. That word, steady, sticks out to me.”
“My wife is in her first trimester with our third and she's exhausted right now, but the systems I've built have let me stay regulated and show up well in all my facets — as a husband and a father — even with work being non-stop.”
“For the first time in probably a year, I did not open my laptop after the workday was over… There's this weird feeling when technology isn't around you. You start noticing things again.”
P: better at unplugging from perpetual business to-do's and actually being present with my wife and kiddos. Feels real good. 😊
“The best part is I'm seeing progress at work and my wife and I are doing much better.”
“Went on a fishing trip with just my 3 boys — a 12-mile float down the Menominee River, camping for 2 days. My second oldest told me it was the best weekend he's ever had. That was one of my relational goals for the year, and it was better than I could have imagined.”
“I had the most special evening with my daughter, giving her a covenant of love ring and pledging my commitment to her as she becomes a young woman. God held back the rain as we shared a moment on a bench alongside the river, then dinner and ice cream.”
“I was able to have guilt free family time, to carve out chunks of time where I was able to rest, have fun, be with my family.”Chiropractor, clinic owner, dad · on YouTube
Business — Company I'm now representing posted my hiring announcement. The post got a lot of attention and I got 3 soft leads from it. We also finished planting all of our corn and soybean acres. This was the first year in my life that I planted every acre so no more blaming boo boo's on the old man.
45 days straight of my morning routine (morning drink, read Bible and workout).
I'm about 15 days till I am done the whole Bible. This will be my first time reading through it.
Started posting again and finished my perfect week calendar, brandscript.
My dad is flying out west next week and we are going fly fishing with a guide. My dad and I have never had the closest relationship, but we are gonna spend a full day fishing on the water.
Business: implemented new team meeting flow, using the 6 Working Genius, and starting to use Basecamp for managing projects. The team is on board and we're busier than ever!
“The wife and I are doing better than we were for sure. More present, more there for her and the kids.”
“My wife and I celebrated our 15-year anniversary in Oregon wine country without the kids. We've had amazing honest conversations about how we can support and love each other better, and spent each morning in a devotional together.”
“Had an awesome trip to an island off Belize with my wife for our 20th anniversary — super connecting and a well-needed break.”
I've built a new morning routine where, about four times a week, I'm waking up earlier to read and pray — something I've never really done in my life. It's been a really cool thing for me, and the best part is that my wife has noticed the positive change, too.
Being in a group with other Christian men who are all looking to better themselves is powerful. I see so much value in having this group of guys to move forward with.
Time with the Lord in the mornings has been great!! Inspired daily by Romans and the story of Genesis.
“7:00 AM, baby in the carrier, dog on the leash. Our baby is in a serious sleep regression right now — so this is a bonus for my wife: 30 minutes in the morning to rest without the dog or the baby. Much needed for her.”
“Survived 3 days with this little monster (and the older three that barely know I exist), while giving momma a well-earned getaway.”
“I had lunch with my wife today and what a blessing of a time. I blame you because these habits are in my mind.”
Handled things very well under high tension, yelling, swearing and pressure from a client's angry neighbour.
Gained clarity on who we want on our team and what sets us apart.
A big long time customer is giving me a much larger portion of their service moving forward which is huge for us!
“Took my boys camping for the first time and my older son to see Dude Perfect live. I stayed disciplined and got my morning routine in every day this week — it's been motivating my wife, so she's getting up early too, which makes it easier to hold each other accountable.”
“Our daughter is home sick today. I was able to reschedule my day to be home with her.”
“Orchestrated a fun concert night with my wife and 3 sons. Also had 3 times hanging out with my 7-year-old daughter this week doing things she wanted to do. An hour here and there, but you can just tell how it draws you closer — to both of us.”
I'm out camping with my family, and my VA and staff are keeping both businesses moving while I *mostly* unplug for a long weekend.
Business: highest number of new clients ever within the past month and a half.
Family is safe and good.
“For my wife, she was like — this was hands down my favorite vacation that we've ever done… She didn't have to think about anything.”
“I'm out on the water with my kids.”
“My wife and I are doing date night at UFC Fight Night. Very high-quality time, which has been limited since our son was born in November.”
B: We earned a 2025 safety recognition award from my insurance carrier, and took a picture with the whole team. A very good way to leverage better rates for next year.
Personal: Proud of my kids this week. Their attitudes and actions are for team family.
I’ll report back on our movie choice.
Married men: keep dating.
“I'm at a cabin in the mountains with my wife, away from our 4 kids. First time we've gotten away like this in years.”
“Consistent time with God, daily power walks with my wife, connecting deeply with my teenage daughter — treasuring the time.”
“Morning Bible reading, evening power walks with my wife, and evening books — honored every day this week. Rich time with the Lord and with my wife.”
Business: Shop flow and production. This last week was at an all-time high. One job is leaving the shop and another is getting started.
Personal: My wife and I are going on a date tonight for the first time since our son was born!!!!!!!!!
Personal: Volleyball is in full swing with my girls. Enjoying see them compete!
“I had the time in the middle of my day. We talked from 10 to 11:30. It was amazing. We really needed that — encouraging one another, sharing heartache together. It was like water to my soul.”
“My sister and I have never been that close, and our relationship has been rocky for the last half year. Today we had a great reconciliation and a real conversation about how we'll move forward. It's wonderful.”
“I tuned up the guitar, and one thing led to the next. We played a couple worship songs. I sang the song I sang to my wife at my wedding. We ended holding hands and praying. I got to pray over my family, my mom and dad, and my sister.”
“After a marriage intensive in December, my wife and I have become the closest we have ever been. Both grown so much closer to the Lord.”
“Out of the areas of biggest concern, my marriage and my kids are actually pretty awesome. My wife and I are pretty, pretty good. Our marriage just keeps getting better. I love her more.”
“Soul: grateful for God's grace. Family: enjoying a wonderful season of relational joy at home. Health: diet and exercise dialed in. Professional: making tangible progress on many fronts.”
Personal: Jiu-Jitsu game has been taking big boy steps. Also getting to share the gains with others which is even more fulfilling.
Not enjoying it for my pleasure to receive comments and likes, but to see and audience still alive and reactive even after 9 months without any post like this one about me or my business.
And this morning first hour of the day 4h30 when I woke up:
A message from a pair, Christian coach, who proposed me to talk about a partnership, he is apparently recruiting and interested in my profile for a contributor coach inside his coaching program for his affiliates 🔥✨
“My wife and I had one of our best brand planning sessions this evening.”
“A lot of little unexpected stressors hit this week and could have derailed our connection, but my wife and I worked through them quickly and came out closer.”
“A lot less anxiety throughout the day. A lot less overwhelm — that feeling like I need to be in several places at once or doing several things at once. And I'm getting better at prioritizing.”
Fully involves and driven by my passion, mission, and energy pushing from the inside coming from the Holy Spirit,
And responses in the outsides by clients coming more easily than I expected, people coming to me to ask for my contribution in their project with conference, lecture etc...
I feel so empowered and grateful,
Thanks Lord for beein in control, paving the path and beeing with me at my side,
My love for you is revive and brings me a new savor to enjoy and a hunger for more experience of Your presence in my life ❤️🔥✨🙏
“The whole week was chaos. Sick family, contractors car overheated, my guys getting cussed out on the job site. And I just didn't get angry. Didn't let it get to me.”
“I felt the sharp reply rise up — but 'quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger' was right there in my head, so I held it back instead of firing off.”
“I used to look at rest as a weakness — if you weren't working from 4 in the morning until 6 PM, there was no excuse. Now it's the opposite. I'm learning how to just rest and trust that God's in control, not us. I want to get to the point where when people ask how I'm doing, I can just say: I'm rested.”
“The biggest shift I've seen in myself is taking responsibility and ownership. If I'm not showing up as a calm father and a loving husband, that's on me. The external circumstances don't dictate how I get to show up — whereas in the past, it was very much a victim mentality.”
“I'd been trying to build a consistent morning routine for five or six years. Having something I can actually check on and check off every single day. That's what finally made it stick.”
“Waking at 5:15 every morning to pray, review priorities, read my eulogy, and connect with my wife. Game changer.”
Professional - No big breakthroughs, just learning and building on the one existing deal that I have. Coming across a few steps in the process that I missed but nothing serious at this point.
“My ability to keep calm under stress has increased greatly with this group.”
“Biggest win: being cool under fire. This group has very much helped with that.”
“I found myself just having to take a deep breath and just be like, well, I signed up for this. This is a good time to lean on God. No matter what happens — even if the truck gets towed — we've got work booked, the guys are okay, and I'm closing jobs.”
“Patterns I would default to in the past, I'm pausing and I'm recognizing more before. My escape would be just grab the phone, flip through the newsfeed, distract yourself, numb yourself. Today I opened the YouBible app and I read a few prayers, and I realized I just need to go be quiet for a little bit. And in doing that, it was like a reset.”
“I called my uncle. I wanted to articulate my feelings and thoughts in a calm and organized way. And I was able to do that. I prayed about it beforehand for a few days.”
“It's a heck of a lot better than it was a year ago, and it's a heck of a lot better than it was six months ago.”
“My work list was a mile long and I just felt overwhelmed. So I said, you know what, I'm going to start with something that's not on this list. I put the work away and read my Bible for an hour instead. And it helped.”
“My knee was swelled up, my number two was out, and I didn't miss any work. I didn't complain about it too much. I just kept going.”
“I've never felt so much peace despite what's going on. Discipline has improved every area of my life. I feel when I'm drifting and take action immediately.”
“Usually, if I was on vacation, I would just let stuff go. I really think the habit tracker is what kept that going.”
“I just feel like staying disciplined on [the morning routine] has been helping me to really stay in between the lines.”
“4 weeks straight waking at 5am — workout, Bible plan, cold shower, pray. Working on my eulogy — challenging but eye opening.”
Personal- I have introduced and been practicing a new Jiu Jitsu guard to my game. Making progress with chaining it with some foot attacks and having success with it against opponents.
“Completed morning routines on the road during a business trip.”
“Found a good template for early morning rising, quiet time, working out, and offense work — before my day job even starts.”
“I woke up at 3:30am and could not go back to sleep. So I got up at 4, read my Bible for a while, left at 4:45, went and got some coffee, got into the office. I had a full day of work in before I ever went to go play golf.”
"Date day" with just my wife and I at the football game.
My two kids (9&11) started taekwondo, with who's a 2nd-degree black belt. She helping teach, so it's become a family thing.
Also we're heading on a family vacation next week to to stay with my cousin . Great timing!
Family-wise, we got some good time together. I'm planning on spending some good time tonight when I get home. I try to do that every so often, just focus on making sure that I'm available for my kids.
“Started working out again for the first time in a couple of months — ran a mile to warm up, did an upper body workout, and realized I'd lost 15 pounds since February without even tracking it.”
“Been much more consistent getting in the Word every day in some shape or form. Weight's been good, working out a couple times a week, eating well, good relationships with family and friends. All is well.”
“There are things I've tried to do for years but never stuck with. Now it's just what I do.”
“I really thought I'd be able to manage it better without the accountability. Having to record it every day makes missing those habits a little bit harder. The biggest thing I've taken away is adding friction where I need things to go away, and removing friction where I want to build the habit up.”
“Learning to operate in the GAIN not the GAP. Handled high tension with a client's angry neighbor extremely well.”
“Personal discipline is on fire. Family is weathering the biggest storm of our life. Started and acquired two businesses.”
Personal: Celebrating our youngest 9th birthday this weekend at the lake.
“I just have, like, this peace, you know? I think I learned that from her, too, and I learned that from this group, too.”
“I got punched in the gut by a customer… But [at lunch] he slept on my shoulder. It was so wonderful. And I believe this wholeheartedly — when God closes one door, he opens two more.”
“DNF at the Saskatchewan Marathon at km 35. This result was crushing. My spirit was strong, my mindset was challenged, and my body simply gave out. God is still great, and a comeback marathon is in my future.”
Business - Most know but after missing out on a "good" lead a couple weeks ago, God blessed me with my first listing on a much larger deal and so far the individuals I'm working with have been great. Hope to get the listing agreement signed today and officially seal the deal.
I wanted to take the time to share some huge wins. My wife and I have been working one on one with Matt for about 3 months now and we are being pleased with the progress. After spending years trying to figure out social media with our business. Matt has been able to coach us through a series on Instagram gaining over 1500 followers in just 20 days on a small creator account. If you're on the fence about social media… or having a hard time posting regularly. Just go for it. The more you post the better you get. and I have not only gained tons of leads but also potential employees and partnerships to grow the business. I used to think door to door sales was the only way I could sell or would sell and now all I'm focused on is creating more content. Yesterday we had one post up with some critiques from Matt before we went live which ultimately led to 30+ new customers.
Thanks Matt for all the coaching and support. It's truly inspiring to finally have a clear direction and a way for for the sales process in our business.
“Lost access to all my social media accounts due to being hacked but that's a blessing in disguise and now I get to start fresh.”
“For the first time in my life I'm feeling a real direction forward and an actual plan on how to get there. MOAM has given me discernment and a clear vision going forward.”
“I've been using the reader function on my phone to read my eulogy statement back to me — 'Hey Siri, read the note called eulogy statement.' I've been doing it about a month now and it's been really impactful.”
Personal Win: I found out that I have been "nesting" — a term I had never heard before but my mom was cracking up telling me that is what I was doing in getting the house ready for the baby. So a win that our home is prepared for the new baby and that my mom is getting great enjoyment out of the thought of me "nesting"!
Professional: The AI course has kind of got my wheels turning, on some entrepreneur ideas, which is new for me. I also saw a heron hunting a fish on one of my 30 minute walks this week outside. God spoke to me about my daily hunt. Something that I think as someone employed, its not something I normally consider.
“I keep going back to that eulogy statement that you had us create, and that is, like, an every-morning daily guidepost.”
“I'm on like day 77 reading my eulogy statement. It's like narrow focus for the day. It's been awesome.”
“I've been very intentional about setting the tone of our whole family. We get things done, we have good attitudes, we don't sweat the small stuff. It's amazing what it does.”
Personal: good moments training my daughter how to drive. Had a needed healthy convo with my 11 year old son. Leaving on a little overnight getaway with my wife this afternoon.
What a beautiful time, what a great experience. None of us were on any of our technology phones, computers, et cetera, all weekend. It was absolutely joyous.
All we did all weekend was:
- Listen to music for a few hours at the festival
- Eat food
- Drink coffee
- Play sports and activities
- Have a fire
- Enjoy fellowship around the campsite
"Running With You in the Dark" by 10th Avenue North was my favorite performance and song to see live. About 2,000 people there.
“Honestly, Matt, I really appreciate the work you do, how you've led me into — you've kind of… bothered me, in a sense — towards my Heavenly Father, like, pushed me towards Him… In 3 months, it's crazy where we're going, where we've come from. I love how the foundation is Christ. I love how it's most primarily about removing idolatries, centering on Christ.”
“Being able to feel God's presence more. Going through the word and having it emotionally and physically affect me. It's something I forgot was even a thing.”
“Until this program, my prayer was very superficial — pray for supper, that was about it. It wasn't intimate, it wasn't deep, it wasn't thought out. Now one of my deposits every day is to pray, and I have specific things I'm praying for. In just the last couple of weeks I feel like I've grown a lot.”
We just booked a vacation as a family to go to Fort Lauderdale and then on a cruise to the Bahamas and then over to Costa Rica.
We're gonna do a two-week family vacation next January. Super excited and grateful that we get to do something like this!
2. found some new barstools to go around our kitchen island that have a good back so can sit up there now with us in her own chair and they're pretty great to sit and drink coffee in
“At 43, it's the first time in 32 years that I'm not addicted to anything. My prayer and my time in the Word are tangible now — I feel God's love when I pray. My family is on the mend because I'm able to lead them now.”
“For the first time in my life, I actually have a hunger for doing what God has me here to do.”
“I've read 14 of the 27 New Testament books — shortest to longest — in the last few months since starting MOAM. My delight and desire for the Word have been refreshed.”
Personal — 16 yr old son got his driver's license. Excited for him. Fun time of life.
“I'm on schedule reading through my Bible this year. I haven't done that since 2017. I look forward to that. Meeting with him is life-giving, so how could I miss it?”
“Today is day 9 of getting in the Word. The last two have just been me walking out in our pasture with my AirPods in, listening to God's Word. And every single time, it doesn't matter how many times I've listened to the same passage — something else ised to me. That is why it is called the Living Word of God.”
“I've never really felt like God speak that directly to me. We'd been talking about anger in Bible study last week, I started reading James, I was struggling with anger yesterday — I go to open my book that night and the chapter is right there.”
After saying yes and training, I got to go to and climbed some mountains. I've always said no to this sort of thing.
Well I'm glad I went. Getting older, no time like the present. 3 day hike for the first hike ever. 25+ km through , brutal blisters an hour in, sandals for the last two days, and thankful the whole way. God's handiwork out there leaves me humbled. Great time with brothers in Christ as well.
Personal — I've been better at being more present around family and friends.
Big win today for our little -man. Yesterday was nine months since his birth.
Today he's kneeling up over the side of his crib.
My wife entered the room, and he was smirking at her like a little fly fox. Good thing God warned us. 😉
Time to lower the frame.
“I'm down to one more dose of my SSRI, and then I'm off the anxiety medication completely. Also got three early-morning wakeups this week.”
“I've grown in having a deep desire for time with Jesus. Started serving with a missions organization.”
“The time in the morning is foundational. The bookends of the day — the beginning with Him, and then the evening walk. His presence brings peace in it. He meets me there.”
Business — Had a good meeting with an attorney this morning for networking purposes. Have some clarity on how to proceed with my position at work.
1. We shipped that feature by the deadline, and Partners (customers) were extremely happy with the result.
2. In the midst of all the things I'm juggling (leading a new team at work, interview prep for 3 opportunities, not sleeping), I was still able to:
a. provide air cover for my wife to start going to PT
b. have lunch with someone I'm ministering to, and encourage them (I'm building up rapport to prayerfully share The Gospel with them)
c. Take my oldest out for a Father-Son hangout (community pool & ice-cream), which included some spiritual conversations
d. Line things up to serve and love-on a friend who is in full-time ministry (having him & his kids over for breakfast, tomorrow)
We keep reminding ourselves that as long as we follow God's plan and not our own, we will be just fine.
Where you fear the most is where you trust God the least.
Personal: Focus on gratitude stayed fresh in the mind although life was lifing.
“Our fulfillment is not in the goals, the money, or how productive we are. It can only come from one very large hole in our heart that can only be filled with God. If God ever makes me a billionaire, I want it to be because I followed His guidance — not because I just wanted more and more.”
“A private equity firm showed up and made a stunning offer for the business I love. We were a month from signing. On the drive home from the beach my wife asked me, 'So we get all this money — and then what? The bills are paid, the kids are healthy. Why do we need more?' Deep in my soul I felt God saying, why do you need more? It's like chasing after the wind.”
“It's the first week in ten years that I haven't read anything related to business, and in the weirdest way I feel more relaxed and more clear. I think it's why I joined this program — I'm trying to learn how to smell the roses, how to slow down.”
Business — Had a good meeting with an attorney in town. Still need to get a disciplined schedule in place to stay productive throughout the week.
I'm lifting weights in the store when, out of the blue, I just asked him if he was a Christian. He said, "Yes, absolutely." We had a little bit of a conversation about it, took a photo, engaged in some fellowship, and went forward. I had no clue about this with this guy, and I was absolutely pleased to know that he's spreading the message here and that now we can do that together.
It was a very refreshing convo 🙏
“For ten years, every conversation with one of my good friends has been about business. Yesterday I told him I'm trying to slow down and smell the roses — and it opened the door to a much deeper conversation about our walks with the Lord, our families, and what actually matters. So refreshing.”
“I made a decision this week that I'm going to work less. I'm actually trusting God with both businesses. I've been carrying this anxiety about revenue and outcomes and I hit a point where I just… decided to let it go. Not be passive. But hold it differently.”
“God is giving me an insane amount of clarity — even though I still have the same amount of stuff going on. Just trying to give up as much control as I can has really calmed my mind. I've started to fall in love with things outside of business again.”
This is a bonus for my wife. 30 minutes in the morning to rest without the dog or baby, which is much needed for her.
Quite a beautiful natural experience.
B: I did 2 "Eat the Frog" power hours this week and knocked out a bunch of tasks that I usually procrastinate on. is keeping me honest with it
Personal/relational: lots of little unexpected stressors came up this week that caused some momentary disconnect. Could have really derailed our connection in a bigger way but we worked through them quickly and are closer for it.
Business — Got out and networked more than usual. Had good conversations. Lots of little leads in the works but nothing set in stone.
“We can try to stop these things on our own willpower, but eventually you won't be able to, because you have to fill your cup with something that pushes the bad things out of the way.”
“Consistent at the gym and in the Word. Living like the man in my eulogy.”
“Faith is now my #1 priority. It drove me to the career change I'm pursuing. Working out the most I have in years. More structure to my day.”
Professional: After a few months, my wife and I finally got our short term rental ready to rent and have our first guests checking in today. Did not realize how much work/time it was going to take. So I look forward to having the time to get on the calls with you guys now.
Personal: I took my boys camping for the first time and taking my older son to see Dude Perfect live this evening. I also stayed disciplined and got my morning routine in every day this week. It's been motivating my wife so she has been getting up early as well so it makes it easier to hold each other accountable.
“God's been realigning purpose into my life. Restoring a sound mind and my overall soul. Helping me see again.”
“The main reason I'm here, Matt, is because this is built on a good foundation — a godly foundation. Anything I've built on a worldly foundation doesn't really stick.”
“Passion is something that you're willing to suffer for. And I want to suffer for something that is more than myself. I want to suffer for Jesus. If I'm going to suffer, I want to do it for the kingdom.”
My wife and I celebrated a 15 year anniversary trip to wine country without the kids. We've had amazing honest conversation about how we can support and love each other better. Spent time each morning in this devotional by Dave Harvey.
I'm learning how important and powerful getting away is for us.
If you're in the grind and feeling like you and your spouse are barking at each other you might just need a vacation together. 🙂
B: Next week I have the opportunity to volunteer in building a timber frame pavilion for our community. Part of the Timber Framer Guild community projects. The win is that my team is completely equipped and prepared for me to be gone the entire week and I really consider it such a blessing to be able to do this.
“I prayed for a clear path — if I didn't get the job, I'd be out of excuses for going after my own thing. I didn't get it. The things you fear the most are the places you trust God the least. I'm giving my business to God and letting Him be the CEO.”
“When you have your priorities clear and straight, and you have a why for each priority… and you actually look at each category and, to the best you can, create a schedule that reflects that — that's when you actually feel a level of peace and confidence. Because you know you're doing what you're supposed to be doing. You're living by your convictions.”
“Seek first the kingdom of God, His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you… We just learn to trust that God's gonna give us what we need. And life is a lot better.”
3.5 km run
27 km bike
5 km run
Praise God
Got to lead everyone in a devotional this morning about the way of wisdom in laying down our lives for the Lord. Had some fun skits with the kids to emphasize it. Lots of fun games and good food.
“After being 7 years sober myself, I got the opportunity to help a family member come closer to Jesus and overcome his alcoholism. We headed to a men's retreat together — 250 dudes, 16 baptisms. He got baptized.”
“I keep getting attacks from the enemy and I hear 'it's not worth it, you're just wasting your time, it's not helping.' Then I read your book pairings, the summaries of ascent calls and Bible study, try to keep up with the fitness tracks, help and get help with the pack — and I realize it's helping tremendously.”
“I've wanted to walk away from this a few times — it just seemed like more stuff to do, a lot to keep track of. But now that I've really committed over the last week to just log my daily habits — exercise, read the Word, track my goals — I can really feel the fruit is happening. My wife and I are getting along, and I'm facing the hard things instead of avoiding them at all costs.”
B: Had a great team meeting with my team I call the "pulse group". It's exciting to see in action the care of the people in my company growing with the help of my team mates who are just as passionate if not more about seeing everyone cared for, growing, and loving their job. Excited about the guy I just hired on as my "pulse keeper". 6 working geniuses affirmed that we are literally the perfect pairing to bring our company to the next level and I'm excited.
Personally: surprised my wife with 18 flowers for the 18 years she's been a mom and she loved it.
Sold the last 2 of our 7 lambs this week.
Personal: last day of school for the kids today for summer break. My wife and I head out of town to celebrate our anniversary. Planned every detail for a romantic getaway.
Professional: God is Good! We won our largest contract to date for an industrial client for managed IT services with line of sight to large scale AI projects and hardware upgrades.
Started a New Testament plan, shortest book to longest and got through 5 books already. Have some momentum, slowing down as I read, not trying to just "check it off the box". Praying for wisdom and application of the text I am reading.
Played hockey 3 days in a row this week, worked out each day. Haven't done that before, I'm sore in a good way. I haven't worked out consistently in around 15 years.
Business:
Built the foundation for a free guide / marketing brochure that delivers real value with a clear CTA. Used AI to map the systematic launch plan. I've run companies as a sales rep but never launched my own small business, starting small, planning thoroughly.
“I'm in a legal dispute with a business owner in Florida and U.S. Customs and Border Protection — but I'm not in a battle with him. I shared the verse of the day, Hebrews 12:14, with him and his attorney and connected over our faith in Jesus amidst it all.”
“I was lifting weights in the store of my biggest customer — a guy I've known three or four years — and out of the blue I asked if he was a Christian. 'Yes, absolutely.' We had a conversation, took a photo, shared some fellowship.”
“I've had Lyme disease for about 5 years — difficult physically and mentally. As of my last two tests it's no longer showing in my bloodstream, and this is the best I've felt in a long time. Praise God for His healing.”
Business: Built a fully functional 20 AI agent setup for my business. Dashboards for review & tweaking along the way.
Bidding 2 good size projects & had my first call in for some time from someone in my network looking for pretty sizable IT help. Meeting with them next Tuesday to scope.
I think this is business contributing to personal. This week after getting some clarity on where our business is going, the new brand story script. I felt a huge load off my shoulders which really allowed me to be more flexible on myself. I'm more present in moments with my wife and family. Found myself not overthinking in moments I should be enjoying with the people I love the most.
Business: after clearing up our ideal customer and where and I really wanted to go with this company. We were able to book 4 appointments with qualified Christian influencers to come on adventures with us to help grow the brand. Yesterday we had our first appointment and she was in love with the offer. We're excited about what God is doing for us. And a huge shoutout to Matt guiding us in this new direction.
Business wins would be instating one of my longtime employees as a foreman of a particular division that I have been heading up. This will help me to continue developing the business where we feel the Lord is leading us. We also invested in a drone to capture footage of the work that we do. My oldest son is going to be in charge of that operation and I'm excited to see him grow the social media aspect of our business.
“A personal win this week has been getting to the heart of what I should be doing — I've struggled with that. My deposits got drastically changed. Reading the Bible became Quiet Time, Gain Wisdom, and Priestly Duties. Spend time with my kids became Connect with my kids and my wife. Feeling really grateful.”
“I didn't want to go to a business coach or build anything with someone that didn't have this ultimate perspective. There are plenty of books out there — but if you're going to be coached and mentored by somebody, they better be under the tutelage of the Holy Spirit.”
“I wake up, crack my book open, have my coffee, read and then pray. About 70 percent of my mornings now. It was zero before. My wife said, 'Babe, I can't believe you're doing this.'”
Personal: Worked out every single day. Prayed every morning. Read the Bible every day. Simple wins but I know they will stack up and change everything over time.
Business: Worked through an Ikigai roadmap this week and it really helped. Confirmed some of my passions and gave me a lot of clarity on the kind of work and business opportunities I want to pursue going forward. Excited about what that looks like.
Business win: Set a meeting with a CrossFit gym in to enroll their community for a trip to !
Personal win: Today is the first day in quite some time I've stepped away from the business to spend some time with my wife. As much as I love the mission of what I'm doing. It's easy for my passion to become an idol and I think for me the hardest thing to do is take a day off. So I'm doing that today. To be honest it's awkward 😂 I've worked my whole life. And stepping away isn't easy. But I want to learn to be more present for my family and even though I think I'm doing God's work. There must be a balance.
“My six-year-old walked in while I was reading my Bible and said, 'Dad, you've been reading it a lot.' It used to be random and inconsistent — now it's every night, and he noticed.”
“I think they're starting to see me as more of a steadying presence, or a calming presence — as opposed to a burnt-out dad at the end of the day when he comes home from work.”
“She said, 'I know you're mad.' And I was just like, I'm honestly not. Like, I'm really not.”
My goal is to have my first client for that business before the end of May and I want everyone in here to stay on me about that!!!! Literally permission to harass me 😆
The other win is after I read the Bible this morning. This will be five days consecutively that I've been in the word every morning and that is honestly the biggest win for this week for sure.
Professional win: Today was day one with our new hire. What an awkward day. It was so different, so unique, and very much a feeling of being off with so many people in my office, but I'm so excited for the future.
1. Our new hire, who is an intern from the . I took him to the game last night. We got to know each other on a deeper level. He is a God fearing man who dedicates himself deep in prayer. That's what made his candidacy stand out.
2. My brother is getting married in August, and his wedding social is tonight with four or five hundred people that know and support him.
3. My wife and I are doing date night tomorrow. This will be very high-quality time, which has been limited since our son was born in November.
Praise God to my brothers in The PACK!
“My 15-year-old daughter said, 'I know what I want in a man. I want a man who follows after God and brings me with him. I don't want to keep trying to make boys love God. I need a man who leads me.' A big part of that is the marriage we have and being able to be the parents God called us to be.”
“My wife… she thanks me every single day. It just blows my mind. It's like part of our routine — we kind of combo our Grace before dinner, and she says that every single night.”
“She was really driven in her career for the first 10 to 12 years… she's completely changed… You can evolve with each other.”
Business front: I had AI help me implement an entire safety dashboard that makes it super easy to manage and record our daily safety checks and weekly tool box talks as well as accident reporting and other parts of our safety program. It's unbelievable how helpful that resource has been. God bless your weekend everyone.
A quick win to share.
Last night I spent an hour of dedicated time just with my son while my wife was out for groceries. He was quite fussy, so I put him down on his exercise machine, got very close to his face, looked him in the eyes, and he stopped crying. In that moment, I saw God in his eyes. It was quite a beautiful moment. Sometimes it's the small things that make a big difference.
Our baby was dedicated to the Lord.
We are committed to raising him in a godly home.
“My wife was actually the one who saw the program. I was hesitant because it was a big investment, and she asked me, 'What training do you have to run a company?' I had none; I was just making it up on the fly. I didn't have great man mentorship growing up. This whole program has just been so full of it.”
“He helped us streamline submittals, contract review, estimating, and proposal prep — making our workflows faster and more accurate. We've already received several comments from clients on the thoroughness of our work product.”
“Christmas dinners done well. Gave out bonuses. Staff feedback: they feel blessed to work here. Going skating with wife and kids tonight.”
Business: I signed up for a monthly AI subscription, and in 1 hour it designed a really amazing website laying out the new leadership flow work I've been working on in my business. Excited to share this with my team.
Family: enjoying a wonderful season of relational joy and harmony at home.
Health: Diet and exercise plan is pretty dialed in at this point. Feeling good.
Professional: making tangible progress on many fronts.
“We had our first team huddle since I was on vacation. I put a big screen up, walked everyone through the command center, and cast vision for how I see each person being a part of this. Everyone was really excited — it generated a lot of enthusiasm.”
“Exciting to see the care of my people growing with teammates who are just as passionate about seeing everyone cared for.”
“Our new hire — a God-fearing intern from the University of Manitoba. I took him to the Jets game last night. He dedicates himself deep in prayer. That's what made his candidacy stand out.”
Personally — my wife's family has a cattle ranch out west. My brother, uncle and I are going out to their bull sale next week. I'm really excited for that.
Business — Passed the state and national exam for my real estate license this week. 60 hours of classes and two tests left and then I'll be licensed.
“Biggest account so far. It came down to us and another IT partner, and he said — you know what, I know you, I like you, you're very trustworthy. We're gonna go with you.”
“My oldest son is going to be in charge of [drone] operation and I'm excited to see him grow the social media aspect of our business.”
“I made a stop at Tim Hortons this morning. I was blasting 'Bless God' while I pulled up to the window, and this young Filipino man serving me had a huge smile. He said 'God bless you' with a massive smirk as I drove away. We shared an incredible moment of a pin prick of time together.”
P: My Bible reading plan and circumstances in life seemed to be pairing very well lately. It's cool when that happens.
Also, finally got some ventilation installed for a coffee roaster that me and a buddy are setting up. Excited to see how his roasting business grows.
Professional: wrapped up another network project for a client moving into a new building. Currently bidding on a client as a result of our outbound marketing that would be our biggest client yet.
Rolled out a new AI agent system with intent logic for email, LinkedIn & voice.
Professional: The service side of my business has been drowning in big projects after the snow/ice storms lately. I decided to pull the guys who typically do installs over so we had all hands on deck to help get caught up. It was not extremely beneficial financially, but the boost in morale made it worth it.
“Had the opportunity to share aspects of following Jesus with coworkers. We prayed for a girl who was airlifted after a head-on collision — we prayed she would walk out of the hospital that night, and she did.”
“Some of the principles within this coaching program have overlapped into my spiritual life. I've been able to pass that on to other people who are trying to do similar stuff when it comes to our faith.”
“You're the first person besides my wife that I have ever heard say no, we need less of self. The Bible actually does not call us to learn how to love yourself better. And I just know that to be true for my own life, because I see it every single day.”
This group has very much helped with that 😉
Professional — Verbally committed to the land sales position. It's a scary feeling but I know God has plans for me to prosper.
Personal: took some time with the family from Tuesday till tomorrow to soak up some sun in . Picked the kids up from school and surprised them for a mid winter break & Valentine's Day.
“That's why I like this group of men. We talk about these types of things and we share these experiences. Actually, thank you. I don't get this in my life a lot. The world isn't like this.”
“The things we talk about here — if I told this to somebody outside this group, they'd look at me like I was crazy. But when I talk about it here, you guys understand. It's been a blessing.”
“My takeaway is just how helpful it is to be in a room where I'm hearing other men talk about what they're striving to be. There's gotta be a lingering effect from this call — positive reinforcement, kinder to my wife, thinking about Sabbath, putting the phone down.”
Business: Crew schedule is booked solid through September now, and all for very good clients. This is allowing me much time to give to leadership and business development with Matt in ways that are unprecedented. A lot of great momentum building amongst our team.
Professional: Closed a deal with a builder who is finalizing an Airbnb neighbourhood, they purchased 5 hot tubs for those homes with plans to buy 5 more when the other homes get built.
I have been approached to take on another used equipment venture with some local guys which sounded exciting and something I would have jumped on immediately in the past, but with the tools we are learning through MOAM and through Matt's (and all of your guys') collective wisdom without you even knowing has given me the discernment and drive to really focus on my current business and a much more clear vision going forward.
For the first time in my life I'm feeling a real direction forward and an actual plan on how to get there!
“I'm just really impressed by the men — not only from a vulnerability standpoint, but all the knowledge and wealth they have in terms of their personal lives and their businesses. I've already gleaned so much. I'm glad to be in the program.”
“I'm blessed by the men that have joined up with this. I feel really, really blessed — like, that is such a gift.”
“I feel like today is one of those calls, similar to when you walk into a church and it seems like there's nobody else in the room and your pastor's just preaching a sermon directly to you. That's kind of how it's been today.”
“I think that's one of the most awesome parts about your group, and kind of why you have the whole pack thing — all of us being able to hold each other accountable. I'm happy to jump on a Zoom call with anybody to kind of go through this together.”
“One of the reasons I left my previous coach — he wasn't really based in faith. I'm no longer a part of a lot of that community because it wasn't built on a good foundation. The only thing that's been a constant in my life is the Lord.”
“I remember I was in the truck — it was the second time we spoke — and I was like, man, I don't want to do this. Excuse, excuse, excuse. And now I'm super proud. It's been 10 days. A lot of work to go, but I'm gonna keep going.”
Really enjoying the new habits.
Personal: 4 weeks in a row of waking up at 5 to work out, do the Bible plan, cold shower and pray.
Still working on my eulogy, challenging but very eye opening.
Business wins: Great team meetings finalizing our mission and goals. Exciting developments utilizing the 6 Working Genius quiz. Putting into practice with my sons in developing 2 new lead roles based around their gifting.
“These two calls on Wednesday are pretty fun. I usually have good Wednesdays now — they used to be a hotspot day doing CRM work I hated. This has completely changed my midweek routine. It's my favorite time of the week.”
“I've been enjoying listening in the last couple weeks. I just love what everybody's been sharing. I was so encouraged by just being able to drop in on the conversation, even without being a full part of it.”
“I find myself having zero draw online because I have such good, rich relationships in person.”
Business — Solidified this second opportunity to farm 75 more acres this year after a 2 hour long conversation with the gentleman yesterday afternoon.
Business — our entire team completed the 6 Working Genius and next Monday we'll dive in and work towards everyone spending a majority of their time in their working genius to increase productivity and results. Things are moving in a good direction with solid momentum.
“Now that we've been doing the weekly calls, it's helped me a lot. Sundays are non-negotiable for me now. Just learning to step away at the right time — it's a much better situation.”
“I'm not just sitting on the couch by myself with a pen and paper trying to think of goals. I'm hearing you talk about them, I'm seeing other people, I'm hearing other men, I've got it on an app where I'm in my phone anyway. It self-populates each day.”
“It's only been a few days, but it's already having a big impact. And, you know, it's coming from a person who's done goals their whole life, but just has been out of it for a couple of years, so it's been really helpful to just have it in one place and have the community.”
2) Set clear personal and professional goals for 2026.
3) Lots of good time in the Word and in prayer.
4) Hired a new VA after letting my previous one go a few weeks back, and have her off to a good start.
We had an eventful (kids with motion sickness, both flights delayed, almost missing our connecting flight) but successful day of travel Friday to get the family from to for the holidays.
Going skating with my wife and kids tonight.
“I've come a long way since I've started working with you. I've got a lot more to go.”
“One week, dude, we already see tons of value. There's light. It's a wealth of knowledge.”
“Having that perfect week overlay what your current week is — it's messy, but it's well worth the effort. Just knowing that that's the first part of the process. It's well worth the effort.”
Had some good teaching moments with staff.
Found another warehouse space to temporarily move a bunch of my inventory to… until we make room in our warehouse. That was a big deal for us.
• Client wants to get on a 6-month retainer!
• Posted my 1st long form BTS video
Closed a client that was considering a competitor, which also prompted a development of a new solid asset for sales process in the future.
Found a tenant for my vacant rental suite, had to go a month vacant to find the right fit.
“This is the first time I've ever done something like this with quite a significant investment. I'm very happy that I did it. I've actually eliminated the vast majority of other business development, personal development stuff in my life.”
“This whole program is about getting back time.”
“Tools and simple principles that you can apply every year of your life and carry on through the rest of your life. To me, that was worth it.”
Hired my daughter on to create an office administrator position, working to free myself up to operate equipment more.
Repaired one of 2 lasers.
Created a spreadsheet that allows me to better track cost at an hourly rate.
Small wins toward a greater goal.
• Completed 500 challenge and set a 4 rep deadlift PR (405 lb)
• Was able to lock down a mover after a few unsuccessful weeks
Professional
• Most clients and sessions in one week (17/20)
• Successful pop-up at CrossFit comp yesterday
• Offer accepted by a key hire, really tough to find those with experience and understanding in our space — found him and got him
• 3 BJJ sessions
• Developed a framework for assets and content related to team member onboarding and training… long overdue
This is a HUGE answer to prayer, and has my wife and I talking about potentially moving to make it a reality. Please pray for Godly wisdom in this opportunity! 🙏
“I read that article on complaining in your business that someone shared. That had a pretty profound effect on me — I'd been complaining a lot this week. When I see stuff like that on the Slack, items somebody points out that are helpful with the injury I'm experiencing and some business problems I'm having, it's very helpful.”
“I completed the XCC Alberta last weekend — hiked 40km with over 1,000m of elevation, carrying a 40–50lb pack, alongside a band of brothers. It was a transformational weekend and I'm so happy I did it.”
“It's been a lot of pain the last 3 years trying to get trips sold… We recreated the offer, and dude, the feedback is insane. Yesterday we had four sales calls, and I've never seen people so excited about wanting to work with us — the urgency is so high. We've probably got 30 yeses.”
Added a new customer this week.
Got a heavy lift in.
My son and I lead a discussion for our father son small group at his school.
Booked an AI consulting meeting.
First Blueprint call.
On track with the team for our 90 day targets (this is new for us).
Made a key hire, stealing him from the competition.
• New partnership with boxing gym
• Most client sessions this week (17)
“Landed my largest MRR contract to date. Largest AR week ever.”
“My revenue was $18.5K this month, which is nuts, and I worked like 30–40% less hours, which is wild.”
“In 3 months working with you, Matt, I've already cut several hours off my work week. My EHR is going up. I'm doing better at delegating than I've ever done before, because I'm mindful of tasks that are way below my EHR right now.”
Chipping away!
Kicked off Blueprint work with Matt.
Started BJJ for the first time at a local gym.
Matt translates complex AI tools into simple, practical steps our team can use every day, in the office and in the field. His hands-on training and thorough review won quick buy-in from our entire staff. I highly recommend Matt and his program to any business looking to implement AI the right way, saving considerable time and money.
“That was the first time I've ever been able to go away and have the practice covered.”
“You have a business when you can walk away for a month, bills get paid, clients come in, the marketing machine keeps working. That's a business.”
“The business I built with Matt's coaching already carries on without me when I have to step aside. I feel confident that if something happened to me, my wife would have income and support to continue.”

What did you do with your gained back Time Freedom? Got home a bit earlier a couple of nights to be with the family at dinner.
“Both businesses are trending in the right direction. I'm out camping with my family, and my VA and staff are keeping both businesses moving while I mostly unplug.”
“I got more work done on my marketing business this week than in the last three years since I owned it. Twenty posts created and scheduled, three ads almost done, an entire website built and sent to a buddy in a single day — and yet I wasn't glued to my desk. I played with my son for about an hour in the middle of the workday.”
“I think I just landed my first client — a $1,700 a month retainer. It's a friend with a solar company, gave me the verbal, we meet July 30 to sign. This has been three years in the making.”
Top 1. God just brought me the perfect candidate, journeyman electrician, a believer, a man of integrity. Just offered him the job, he starts Sept 2!!!!
Also, got through my options I've been working on for so long.
Enjoyed getting out doing an inspection, realizing I really do like parts of this business again!
Sold a job, my admin just hit one year with us.
Got a workout in this morning.
Thanks Matt for the ongoing guidance with our success 💯
“Since I built my own service software, I've been able to take on a couple of larger jobs that would have overwhelmed me in the past — but I've managed them well with good organization. And because I'm not overwhelmed with work, I've been able to show up so much more present and regulated at home as a husband and father.”
“We got results for proposals we sent for our clients over 280 days ago. There was a point where we didn't think the government would ever award these — but we won 12 contracts, with a few still pending. This is far and away the most successful round in our four-year existence.”
“I was too stuck in the weeds of the business to think big picture about how to grow. Lots of spinning my wheels without making real progress. Now I feel like I have a framework to make good decisions as we scale up the business. I'm constantly improving my EHR and delegating tasks that don't need my attention.”
I used to be way more diligent to join all of the calls, then I think I associated my lack of getting things done to joining the calls, though that never really was the issue.
Learning that structuring my days, and accomplishing my goals is my focus, and simply being obedient to complete what is set before me.
God help me to be diligent, and stay focused on this 90 Day Plan 🙏
Beyond business, I've been able to stay present at home. My wife and kids are doing great. My daughter just graduated high school, and I got to be fully there for her final dance recital — something she's been part of since she was two. And I'm coaching my son's baseball team, which is one of my favorite things to do. I get to stand at first base, fist bump him when he gets a hit, and be part of his world.
Life is full right now — business growth, personal presence, and family joy.
Our summit is charging double this year and already has more committed guys than last year — with no email push yet. That's the power of leaning into the systems and understanding our audience.
The email marketing framework Matt shared is exactly what we needed. It gave us clarity and a repeatable cadence to communicate value and convert more consistently.
“I was working 18 hours a day and still not feeling like I was catching up. I believe now I have a better idea of where to invest my time and when to hire people to help. I am giving more time to my family and focusing on areas in the company I want to grow.”
“I was constantly hitting up against a wall — needing to recalibrate often. Having a program and framework to work with gives a foundation to revisit often. Better able to disconnect from work. More present at home. More focused at work.”
“I'm realizing we basically only have 7 hours of work left to do for clients with deposits paid — catching me off guard doing all the work at once with 2 guys, when it could have taken me all of September by myself.”
“Tracking stuff has really helped me and freed me up to be like — wait, this is a huge blessing. I can work 25 hours a week and don't need to feel bad.”
“The safety system working really well — records of safety talks and safety checks on the job for the last 2 weeks. The guys are just doing it, very easily.”
“Hired a new journeyman electrician, bringing the team to 3 plus me. He's already leading a big project and I'm seeing more time to focus on sales.”
“June brought in about $140,000 in personal production with his team adding another five or six on top. The same month, his daughter graduated high school and he was fully there for her final dance recital, the one she'd been part of since she was two. He coaches his son's baseball team and stands at first base to fist bump him after a hit. He described it as life being full right now.”
“He started the program running his business on the side. Five months in, he'd gone full-time, grown revenue 565%, signed a new gym partnership, and booked the busiest week of client sessions he'd ever had. He got his mornings and his marriage in order first, and the growth followed.”
“Paperwork used to eat his evenings — submittals, contract review, estimating, proposals. He built a system to carry the load, and now that same work takes a fraction of the time. His clients have started telling him how thorough it all looks, and he's home for dinner while it happens.”
• Launched with a major partner and gained over 100 subs to our team and personal IG accounts. Similar on X.
• Averaging 5 new Substack subs daily.
• 3 new Brotherhood members since Christmas and 3Xing our price to $75/mo, equivalent to 9x MRR.
• Launched our 12-week coaching program
• Dialed in the additional apps we're going to use for group & 1-1 coaching
“Invoicing, parts and customer tracking all ran through four clunky trackers. He built his own tool that pushes invoices straight into his accountant's system as a draft, replacing a $300-a-month product that wouldn't even integrate. He's taking on bigger jobs now without the overwhelm that used to come with them. His wife is in her first trimester with their third, and he says the systems are what let him stay regulated and present at home through it.”
“My wife told me this has been the sweetest season of our marriage yet, 22 years in. And the main division of my business just closed the best month we've had in 5 years.”
“I wake up, read and pray. About 70% of my mornings now. It was zero before. My wife said, 'Babe, I can't believe you're doing this.'”
• Grew our paid subscriber list on Substack by releasing bonus content
• Recorded 2 more episodes to finish out season 1
• I've been able to more consistently message 10 people most days this week.
• I was also able to record two podcast episodes this week
• I also was able to spend a little time on content creation
Thankful to have been able to make some progress toward my goals in the Build49 worksheet!
“My biggest win has been being cool under fire. I don't spiral like I used to.”
“On track for about $145,000 total for June. And I got to be fully there for my daughter's final dance recital, coaching my son's baseball. Life is full right now.”
“I'm almost a year in working with Matt. There's still a lot of work to do, but the amount of progress I've made in my business, making tough decisions around actually pivoting my business in a way that I think is going to make it sustainable and quite frankly a lot more profitable, taking a little bit more risk, being more decisive, having a plan, but also finding more time to spend with my family and the things that are important… I'm working harder in some ways than I was when I was burned out, but the weight feels in many ways lifted. And what felt bleak for a while, I feel like there's a really awesome light at the end of the tunnel here.”
“I'd worked with business coaches in the past, which I think I found helpful. But talking with Matt and getting insight from somebody that feels all those pains, the marriage component, the walk with the Lord component, the profit and loss component, running [a] successful business, that was rare.”
“I hadn't even fully expected, or even necessarily would have communicated, that I desired the community that is within Man on a Mission. But man, I don't know what I would do without our Tuesday morning Bible studies or our Wednesday business calls or our Slack community, where we can celebrate wins and pray with other people that just know what we're going through.”
“I think that's why even this group is so helpful for me, and having some accountability. So many fall into isolation, because it allows the enemy's voice to get so much louder when we're not handing it over to others who are following, too.”
“I just feel more confident. I have more of a clear direction and a mission — in a more holistic sense.”
“Lack of intentionality can breed a lot of lack of peace and confidence. You just kind of feel like you're doing a whole bunch of things.”
Nothing matches that yet. Try one word, like “wife”, “revenue” or “morning”.
