Episode Details

What would it look like for Christian men to build businesses that strengthen their families, support their churches, and bless their communities?

In this episode of Everyday Reformation, Brandon Scroggins and Nick Carter sit down with Jim Bazzell, a faithful husband, grandfather, churchman, and owner of Bazzell Lawn Care.

Jim shares how he started with a push mower as a teenager and built a successful local business rooted in hard work, integrity, and trust in God. He explains why Christian men should consider learning a trade, starting businesses, and creating productive work that serves others.

You’ll hear practical wisdom on:

• How to know if you’re cut out to start a business
• The blessings and challenges of working for yourself
• Why trades are often a better path than college
• How to involve your wife and children in productive work
• Teaching children and grandchildren a biblical work ethic
• How to run a business without letting it become an idol

This conversation is a powerful reminder that faithful men don’t just critique culture—they build something better.
