Welcome to The Cory Lee Show!
In today's powerful episode with Pastor Jonathan Potter, we dive deep into the journey of faith and the transformation from corporate success to living a life of spiritual fulfillment.
Jon shared his profound shift from working for recognition to embracing his role as a 'son of God,' highlighting that our true identity lies in understanding that we are sons & daughters of God, not in our worldly achievements.
From miraculous healings to the quiet strength found in vulnerability and grace, Jon's testimony is an inspiring call for us to embrace and see ourselves through the lens of God's unconditional love.
Remember, it's not just about being a 'man or woman of God,' but recognizing we are loved children of the Divine.
Tune in, be moved, and let's change our world together—one act of faith at a time.
As we explore Jon's life, he recounts a poignant night that was a turning point for him, a transition from striving as a "man of God" to embracing his identity as a "son of God." Through his stories, we're reminded of the dangers of the "orphan spirit" and the transformational power of recognizing ourselves as beloved children of the Creator.
Jon's insights are not confined to the theoretical; they're steeped in his own experiences as a father and grandfather, as well as his book, "Spiritual Identity Fraud." Through his candid conversation with me, Cory Lee, we discuss the shift in traditional evangelical thought, confront sexual brokenness, and redefine the grace of God as not just an antidote to sin but a preventive vaccine empowering us to live righteously.
Jon's heartfelt advice to all our listeners is to fervently seek the baptism of love that can only come from above. This episode promises to be a paradigm-shifting experience, offering both solace and encouragement to anyone seeking authenticity in their spiritual walk.

Welcome to The Cory Lee Show, where today's episode is nothing short of transformative.
We're joined by Brett Snodgrass, a real estate savant turned life-changer for men in business.
Brett's passionate voice has reminded us that the presence of a father is irreplaceable, and the influence a man has on his family, when grounded in Christ, is immeasurable. We've delved into the potential of men's groups to awaken and deepen relationships, and Brett’s contagious zeal for seeking God's kingdom first has inspired us all.
We've also faced tough truths about the harm of pornography, but there's hope and healing through confession and community.
If you're ready to redefine success and forge meaningful connections, head over to www.irondeep.com and find out more about the community of men that Brett is building.
Don't forget, it's not just about business; it's about building a legacy of faith and family.

Welcome to The Cory Lee Show.
In today's podcast episode, we delved into the essence of being a champion. From Teddy Roosevelt's 'Man in the Arena' to the epic battle of David and Goliath, we explored what it truly means to have the mindset of a champion.
We discussed the importance of identity, attitude, and playing to win, not just in sports, but in life. So, what does it look like for you to be a champion?
🎙️ Key Takeaways in this episode:
1. **Champions Know Who They Are:** They live from a place of identity, not fighting for it. As Coach Prime says, "If you have to tell everybody you that dude, then you probably ain't that dude." Champions carry themselves in a way that puts others on notice, living from a place of confidence and purpose.
2. **Champions Expect to Win:** They approach every task, challenge, and opportunity with the expectation of success. As Zig Ziglar famously said, "Your attitude will determine your altitude." Champions have an attitude of expecting success and strive for excellence in their endeavors.
3. **Champions Influence the Culture:** Similar to the coffee bean in a boiling pot of water, champions influence their environment rather than being influenced by it. They don't play down to the level of challenges but rise to them, taking full responsibility and ownership in influencing the world around them.
I encourage you to listen to the full episode for more insights and stories from my discussion.
If you resonate with these takeaways or have your own thoughts to share, comment below and let's continue the conversation! Remember, you are no accident. You were made for such a time as this, and you are capable of achieving greatness.

Welcome back to The Cory Lee Show, where remarkable stories meet powerful life lessons.
In today's episode we're diving into an incredible journey of transformation, tenacity, and faith with our guest, Brandon Johnson.
From the depths of shame to the heights of business success, Brandon opens up about his harrowing climb out of personal despair. Once entangled in a web of lies and battling addiction, he shares how embracing the truth and accepting the love of those around him — including the selfless love of Jesus and the steadfast support of his wife — set him free from his past.
Brandon isn't just another entrepreneur; he's a testament to the power of second chances. Transitioning from casual sales of eBay and baseball cards to running a thriving business that provides for his team and serves the community, Brandon reveals the secrets of spotting deals and building an enterprise from scratch.
Our conversation today peels back the layers on the real challenges small businesses face, especially the art of assembling a solid team that shares your vision. Despite refusing to offer traditional insurance – because he values community support over policies – Brandon's approach to teamwork is as unconventional as it is caring.
Prepare to be inspired as Brandon opens up about his rapid growth from a hobby to securing a warehouse and how his faith plays into seizing opportunities and avoiding the distractions that life throws at us. He shares a vital passage from Ephesians that guides his gratitude and diligence in business.
Cory and Brandon tackle the gritty realities of entrepreneurship — from enduring failure to systems development — and the mental game of hating to lose over the love of winning, drawing on comparisons with elite athletes.
Listeners, this is not just a story about business achievement; it's a tale of personal redemption and a clarion call to anyone grappling with their truths. Join us as Brandon extends a heartfelt invitation to connect, offering insights that resonate beyond the airwaves. Here's to learning, growing, and seizing the day on The Cory Lee Show.
