What happens when successful business leaders say yes to God and open their lives to the next generation?

In this episode, Andy Mason sits down with Nick and Molly Pastermack, entrepreneurs, investors, and Entrepreneurs-in-Residence at Taylor University, to explore how simple acts of hospitality, obedience, and faith are shaping young leaders on campus.

From pancakes on Saturdays to Spirit-led business decisions, you’ll discover that mentoring young entrepreneurs doesn’t require a platform; it requires availability.
