Send us a textJoin Cody as he sits down with Drew Romo, host of the Brick by Brick podcast and founder of the nonprofit UnxDisqualified. Drew takes us on a powerful journey of purpose and leadership, sharing the hard truth about the difference between ambition and laboring in vain. “Unless the Lord builds the house, the laborers build in vain” – a reminder that without God’s direction, even the best intentions can fall flat. He emphasizes that while ambition is good, it must align with God's purpose, and true success comes from staying under the "pace of grace."Drew's message is clear: we’re called to build walls, right where we are as showcased beautifully in the book of Nehemiah in scripture. Whether it’s your business, ministry, or personal life, God has anointed you to build—starting with the "wall in front of your house." He also dives into the importance of avoiding comparison and focusing on the process of building rather than just the promise. With heartfelt conviction, Drew shares his own journey of overcoming disqualification in his own life and the mission God called him to now through his nonprofit work, helping those who feel unworthy of their God-given calling. This conversation will inspire you to step into your purpose, serve others, and stay deeply rooted in God’s Word and community.If you want to join our Christian Entrepreneur Club, learn more here: https://christianentrepreneurclub.org/christian-entrepreneur-club-discovery-session-page.
