Break Mediocrity and Unlock Your Potential | Dr. Gary Adams
Episode #163
This episode will give you practical keys to help break mediocrity and unlock the potential God place within you. Dr. Gary Adams, President of Mission Harvest America, and author of Breaking Mediocrity: Unlocking Your Potential, wakes up each day and asks God, “what are we doing?”. Our lives change when we realize our potential is ultimately shaped by God’s potential, and God’s potential is infinite. We all have a purpose and God has a plan that he needs us to execute. Potential is great, but sits dormant until we move.
What if our walk with God isn’t meant to be boring? What if each one of us has potential to change the world? All too often, Christians discount themselves as unqualified to really inspire and change the landscape of our culture. Listen to this interview and be inspired today to break out of mediocrity in every area of life.
