In your life, are you swimming with the tide, or fighting against it? In this episode, Jeff and Jonathan discuss: Hard lessons learned while diving in Nova Scotia and the aftermath. Growing in your spiritual maturity. Moving from asking why to asking what. Father for Fathers and the impact it is making. Key Takeaways: It’s not always finding the answers, sometimes it is asking the right question. You have to own your choices. God has already demonstrated our love for us, it is up to us to come unto Him in this broken, fallen world. God will answer us through others if we only keep our eyes and ears open to those. He is our Father. He is in every aspect of our lives and will see us through. Addiction can show up in our lives in different ways. What are you using to hide from and manage your pain? "My prayer for you, is that you would submit to His authority in all aspects of your life, give up your idols, and confess them to friends - there's no better way than to say this is not mine, and confess it to someone and have accountability." — Jonathan Lewis About Jonathan Lewis: Jonathan Lewis is the president of Eastport Financial Group Inc.. He authored two books, Deep Water (2018), and More Than Money (2021). His More than Money podcast speaks to the stewardship of all our assets, from our time and talent to our agency, purpose, and responsibility. He is also the Founder of Father for Fathers, a faith-based organization targeting men with the goal of giving them the tools to succeed in the world we are called to lead our families in today. He is the dedicated husband to Sara Lewis and father of two beautiful daughters. From his home in Nova Scotia, Canada, Jonathan’s vibrant drive to further his faith, family, community, philanthropy, and entrepreneurialism has been constant through his life. At any given time, Jonathan and Sara are invested in at least one or two start-up enterprises. Keen to boost the mindsets, lives, and potential of others, he also volunteers, raises funds, and advocates for charities and community ventures that model strong Christian values locally, nationally, and internationally. As an accomplished public speaker, Jonathan delivers a message of compassion, challenging other entrepreneurs and business owners to never settle for average outcomes, but to step outside the ordinary for greater personal and professional impact.
