Charles Gilford III is a community servant that has done a lot of advocacy and service throughout Colorado. Charles’s resume is impressive. He’s climbed various career ladders, from working for corporate companies like Comcast, and or government agencies like the City and County of Denver. However, that’s not what we focused on. Instead we discussed Charles’s intriguing journey into ministry and his faith background. Throughout this episode we talked about his faith foundation, becoming an associate pastor, submission, hearing and waiting on God, preparing sermons, receiving “spiritual” feedback, and so much more! What I love about this episode is how universal Charles’s message is. The gems he dropped can be applied to people of various backgrounds. I encourage you to check our Charles’s sermons “It’s In The Seed” and “The Second Touch” through One| A Potter’s House Church and to connect with him on Instagram: @charlesgilford3

On every “Humble Beginnings” episode we dig deep. But on this episode, we took philosophical to another level. We went straight “outlandish”. The “Motivated Mister” himself, aka Sly Tha Deuce offered so much wisdom not only about music, but what it means to live “outlandishly”. Outlandish is defined as something that sounds/looks unfamiliar or bizarre. Sly demonstrates that being outlandish in nearly everything you do, not only builds character but can bring great success too. Other topics we discuss includes accountability, authenticity, Sly’s philosophy on why he calls himself a poet, not necessarily a rapper, and more.
