Becoming Sovereign
Learn how to build wealth, family, and relationship with God from the great men of past and present.
New episodes every Monday. Most weeks, I read a biography about a great man of history and relay the most important lessons that you can apply to your life. Some weeks, I have conversations with men who are living sovereign lives to learn from them and their experience.
