info_outlineIn this episode, Brett shares a personal reflection on his spiritual journey—from being a Christian who drifted due to worldly distractions, to realigning his life around eternal priorities. Brett opens up about his past reliance on self-help and personal development strategies that emphasized self-reliance over God-reliance. He acknowledges how even though he was baptized over 25 years ago, the cares of the world—work, routine, and personal loss—choked out his spiritual growth.
A major turning point came a few months ago when he fully surrendered to God, committing to seek Him with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength. Inspired by teachings from John Bevere’s Driven by Eternity, Brett now focuses on creating a biblically grounded life plan—not just for success in this world, but for rewards in eternity. He discusses the concept of a “Judgment Day Statement” and encourages listeners to work backward from what they want Jesus to say to them at the end of their lives.
He also introduces an upcoming workshop focused on five key life areas: Faith, Fitness, Family, Finances, and Fellowship, aimed at helping others realign with God’s eternal vision for their lives.
Key Takeaways:
- Eternal Focus Matters: Designing your life around what you want Jesus to say at the Judgment Seat brings clarity and urgency to your daily choices.
- God Over Self-Help: Personal development is only powerful when it’s grounded in Scripture and God-reliance, not self-reliance.
- Write Your Judgment Day Statement: Rather than focusing on your eulogy, craft a vision of the eternal rewards you desire and plan your life backward from there.
- Evaluate the Five Foundations: Faith, fitness, family, finances, and fellowship are essential areas to examine and align with God’s will.
