We’ve all been sold the same story: work hard, buy the house, get the cars, and then… coast. But what happens when you finally "arrive" and realize the dream wasn’t what you thought? In this raw conversation, we unpack the tension between the prosperity gospel, cultural expectations, and what it truly means to live with purpose—not just comfort.

✅ Why chasing material success often leads to emptiness
✅ How the "comfort crisis" sabotages long-term fulfillment
✅ The difference between biblical provision and modern entitlement
✅ Why your identity (not just your goals) determines your trajectory
✅ What Jesus would say about today’s version of the American Dream

This isn’t about rejecting success—it’s about redefining it. Are you chasing God’s calling or just a comfortable illusion?

"Jesus promised hardship with purpose, not ease with entitlements."

📌 Key Topics:
✅ The hidden cost of keeping up with the Joneses
✅ Why generational wealth often fails by the 3rd generation
✅ How to build resilience through life’s inevitable fires
✅ Trusting the process vs. trying to control outcomes
✅ The North Star question: What am I truly chasing?

One question to leave with: Does your daily grind align with your deepest purpose—or just society’s script?
