Hey there, I’m Jeff Gerhardt, and you’re tuning into the Leveraging Success podcast. Today’s episode is a really special one for me because I’m sitting down with my youngest son, Jacob. We’re diving deep into his dreams and how he sees the world, and let me tell you, it’s a conversation that’s close to my heart.
Jacob’s got this burning passion for music, and he’s determined to make a career out of it. But that’s not all—he’s also feeling called to be a pastor. It’s amazing to see him so dedicated to shaping the future of Christianity, and I couldn’t be prouder.
We also get into the importance of family time. Jacob and I have had our share of what we call “best days,” and those moments are just priceless. I try to offer him as much guidance and support as I can, always emphasizing how crucial faith and family are in this journey of life.
Remember to stay true to what matters most: faith and family.
