Episode Synopsis

Wednesday, January 29th: What happens when someone at the top of the world suddenly loses it all? In this episode of The Daily Grind, John explores the collapse of WeWork and its former CEO, Adam Neumann—a man who went from billionaire status to losing nearly everything in just a few years. But this isn't just a story about business failure. It’s a powerful reminder of how worldly success is fleeting, but God’s kingdom is upside-down. Through Mary’s song in Luke 1:46-55, we see a radical declaration: the proud are scattered, the rich are sent away empty, and the humble are lifted up. Jesus reinforced this truth over and over—the way up in God's kingdom is actually down. So what does that mean for us? Are we chasing after wealth, power, and influence, or are we following Jesus' example of humility and service? Join us as we unpack what it really means to live for God’s kingdom rather than the fleeting success of this world.
