In this episode of Billionaire Discipleship, I break down a truth most people don’t want to hear:

Before God elevates a man publicly, He disciplines him privately.

This episode is a raw, unfiltered reflection on how God used the trenches the streets, survival, bad decisions, close calls, and painful losses to build discernment, patience, and faith that now applies to business, family, and leadership.

Using James 1:2–4, Psalm 144:1, Matthew 6:31–33, and Romans 12:19, I explain why trials aren’t punishment their preparation.

I share real stories from my past:

•Life-or-death moments in the streets

•Learning discernment the hard way

•How street wisdom became business wisdom

•Why forgiveness protected my future

•How faith gets louder when options disappear

This episode is for anyone who feels like:

•You’ve been through too much for no reason

•Your past disqualifies you from purpose

•God is silent in your struggle

The truth is: God doesn’t waste pain. He repurposes it.

Discernment kept me alive in the streets.

Wisdom keeps me alive in business.

Faith keeps me aligned with God’s timing.

Crack is one of the most addictive substances in the world.

It’s made with a recipe: coke, water, cutting agents, and extreme heat until it rocks up.

But what if there’s a similar recipe for the soul one that doesn’t destroy you, but builds you?

In this episode, we break down a street to Bible parallel that reveals why addiction is really misplaced hunger, and why Jesus Christ is the only Rock that survives the pressure.

📖 John 10:10 The thief steals, kills, and destroys. Jesus brings abundant life.

Street Recipe vs. Kingdom Recipe

Street recipes make you dependent.

Kingdom recipes make you disciplined.

God’s formula:

God + a craft + the Holy Spirit + life’s pressure → until your foundation is Christ.

📖 1 Corinthians 3:11 No foundation lasts except Jesus.

We break down:

• Depending on God

• Cultivating mastery

• The Holy Spirit as the cutting agent

• Pressure that shapes instead of breaks

• Christ as the Rock

📖 James 1:5 Choose wisdom, and wealth and wellbeing follow.

Final Truth:

Christ is a different kind of addiction one that builds, sharpens, and strengthens.

📖 Matthew 6:33 Seek first the Kingdom.

Question:

Are you addicted to what’s killing you or to the One who came to save you?

Be cracked out with Jesus. 🪨🔥

Most people aren’t lost they’re wandering.

Broke. Faithless. No vision. Just spinning in circles.

In Episode 18 of Billionaire Discipleship™, we break down Joshua, Moses, and the mindset that kept an entire generation stuck for 40 years… when the promise was less than a month away.

God gave Israel the promise but He still made them fight for it.

Too many people want Jericho to fall,

but won’t even circle the block.

This episode hits on:

•Why fear shrinks faith and distorts identity

•How the “grasshopper mindset” still keeps people broke today

•Why learning when there’s nothing to trade matters more than winning

•What Joshua learned by watching Moses succeed and fail

•Why preparation is obedience even before provision

•How discipline, patience, and faith are built while you’re still broke

•The difference between seeing the promise and possessing it

From Numbers 13 to Joshua’s leadership, this episode connects:

📖 Scripture

💼 Business

🧠 Psychology

💥 Real life losses, layoffs, and comeback faith

If you’re:

•Building with no resources

•Learning while broke

•Waiting on God but still grinding

•Circling the same mountain wondering “why hasn’t it happened yet?”

This episode is for you.

Maybe God isn’t ignoring you

maybe He’s instructing you.

Don’t fold like a grasshopper.

Fight like Joshua.

Everybody wants the quick bag.

The overnight success.

The viral hit.

But God ain’t in the microwave He’s in the crock pot.

In this episode of Billionaire Discipleship™, we break down one of the most overlooked contrasts in Scripture: Saul vs. David. One king popped off fast. The other cooked slow. One got the crown quick. The other waited years. Only one built a legacy that lasted.

Using street perspective + biblical truth, we connect ancient Scripture to modern hustle culture fast money, shortcuts, disobedience, patience, development, and stewardship. If you’ve ever been tempted by the quick flip, the fast lane, or the easy way out, this episode will challenge your mindset and realign your purpose.

This isn’t about religion it’s about formation.

Not hype legacy.

Not quick success trusted stewardship.

🔑 Key Topics Covered

• Saul’s overnight anointing vs. David’s 15-year wait

• Why quick come-ups often lead to fragile futures

• How disobedience killed Saul’s legacy

• Why God develops the man before He delivers the throne

• Street hustle vs. Kingdom preparation

• How patience, struggle, and obedience compound over time

• Why fast money looks like a crown… until it crumbles

• “Don’t microwave a throne God meant to bake”

📜 Scriptures Referenced

• 1 Samuel 13:13–14 — Saul’s disobedience and lost kingdom

• Psalm 27:13–14 — Waiting on the Lord

• Patterns seen in the lives of:

• Joseph

• Gideon

• David

• Peter, Paul, Silas

• Jesus Himself

💡 Core Takeaways

• The longer route isn’t punishment it’s preparation

• God does not waste pain He multiplies it into purpose

• Saul chased speed; David embraced development

• Quick hype fades

In today’s episode, we dive into fire-tested faith, impossible dreams, and the kind of belief that stands strong even when the odds say you shouldn’t make it.

I talk about a dream that some people think is impossible touching $100 billion before I leave this earth. Not for flexing, but for impact. For stewardship. For the projects, the tools, and the resources that could change lives for generations. The goal isn’t just wealth… it’s legacy. I only want to pass on $10 billion across the next 100 generations, creating $100M dividends for every child in every generation.

Because money is a tool. God is the source.

People look at where I came from and say the dream is impossible. But God already said it’s done walk in His name. Because faith is walking like it’s finished even when it looks like it hasn’t even started.

I break down the real definitions of impossible and faith, and why I refuse to live small when I serve a big God. And I keep it a buck… there’s a chance I don’t hit 100 billion. The odds are stacked. But whether I touch 100B, 1B, or 1M, I will still serve and follow the Lord. What started as chasing money became cultivating a relationship with God and creating this powerful blend of business and Christ.

The money is just the tool.

The transformation is His.

We also talk about the furnace moments the times the enemy tries to use the fire to destroy you, but God uses that same fire to reveal you. Reveal the growth you still need. Reveal the habits that needed to die. Reveal how you treat your wife, how you love your family, how you lead your home.

All of it comes out in the fire.

I walk through the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3 — the original “if not, I still believe” warriors. They said:

“The God we serve is able to deliver us… but even if He does not, we will not serve your gods.”

That’s real faith. That’s fire faith. That’s the mindset that inspires me to step into my own flames.

And what’s wild is how the story ends: they walked out without ash, without burns, without even the smell of smoke. That’s the level of transformation Christ brings. He’ll rewrite your story so good, people can’t even smell where you came from.

Hebrews 11:1

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”

So here’s the question I leave you with until the next episode:

The furnace tested their faith, but the fire revealed their God. Will your faith set the temperature in your life… or will the impossible make you fold?

In this episode, Jerry opens up about navigating some of the hardest seasons of his life losing multiple jobs, facing real pressure, and wrestling with the shadows of his past while choosing faith over familiar shortcuts.

Through scripture, personal transformation, and practical wisdom, this conversation highlights how God forms identity, resilience, and clarity in the furnace of adversity.

🔥 Episode Summary

Everybody wants overnight success, but nobody talks about the years in the dark that come before the spotlight.

In this episode, I sit down and talk like I’m talking to Katherine — real, raw, and honest — about why we chase fast success, and why God intentionally delays it.

Acts 2 shows the early church exploding from zero to 3,000 in one day, but what we don’t see is the years of preparation, obedience, struggle, and faithfulness that led up to that moment. Same thing with your calling, your business, your purpose. The “viral moment” is never the full story.

We break down:

•Why society is addicted to instant results

•How social media convinces us success is easy

•Why God protects you by delaying your breakthrough

•The difference between self-confidence vs self-worth

•How to turn weaknesses into weapons (Paul, Beethoven, and more)

•Real business stories: Kevin Plank (Under Armour), Jamie Kern Lima (IT Cosmetics)

This episode is a reminder:

God doesn’t do microwave blessings — He slow cooks greatness.

⸻

🔥 Key Takeaways

1. Overnight Success Is a Myth

People only see the Acts 2 moment, not the sacrifice before it.

Social media shows highlights, not the years of grinding, waiting, and failing.

2. God’s Delay = Protection

“If God gave me success when I wanted it, it would’ve destroyed me.”

Sometimes the thing you’re praying for would crush you if you got it too early.

3. Kevin Plank’s Story

Founder of Under Armour → broke, grinding, sleeping on couches, risking the last $16K he had

Revenue went from:

•$17K → $100K → nearly $400K

But none of it was “instant.”

He literally couldn’t pay a $2 toll on the way home from a business trip.

“Success doesn’t usually find you on your own schedule.”

4. Your Weakness Can Be a Weapon

Paul’s thorn.

Beethoven going deaf and creating his greatest work afterward.

Weakness doesn’t disqualify you — it positions you.

5. Self-Worth vs Self-Confidence (Jamie Kern Lima)

•Self-confidence = external

•Self-worth = internal identity

You can’t achieve your way into worthiness.

You have to believe God’s word more than your own thoughts.

“Are the people around you a circle or a cage?”

6. The God Flip

God grows you underground before He grows you in public.

Every “delay,” every “failure,” every “slow season” = preparation.

⸻

🔥 Scriptures Used

Acts 2:41 — 3,000 added in one day

Galatians 6:9 — Don’t get weary, harvest is coming

Habakkuk 2:3 — “Though the vision tarry, wait for it…”

⸻

🔥 God Bar of the Episode

“Overnight success is just the highlight reel of 10 years in the dark.”

⸻

🔥 Challenge to the Listener

Before you ask God for the spotlight, ask Him to strengthen your roots.

Would you actually be ready if the success you’re praying for dropped on you today?
