Today's episode is a real treat. I had the pleasure of chatting with Chris McMurray, a pastor, author, business coach, and serial entrepreneur. Chris has a fascinating story that's been covered by national media, and he's the author of the book "Food Stamps to Franchise."

Real Stories, Real Impact: Chris shares his incredible journey from struggling with debt and food stamps to building a successful business and becoming a voice in the national conversation.
Faith and Business: Learn how Chris navigates the intersection of faith and business, making decisions based on principles rather than the heat of the moment.
Risk and Reward: If you've ever been paralyzed by the fear of starting something new, Chris's insights into risk-taking could be the push you need.
Cultural Influence: Chris passionately believes that the body of Christ should reclaim its seat at the table in cultural conversations. Hear why and how you can be a part of it.

Chris's remarkable story involving Vice President Joe Biden, some ice cream, and how it catapulted him into the national spotlight.
