July 25. Justin Searle. Justin knew how to work hard and learned there was more to life than he could get by hard work alone. If life feels driven but empty, take faith to work with you.

July 24. Haralan Popov. Popov was an atheist until he was a teenager, when he became a Christian. Before long, he was a pastor. But when WW II ended, Bulgaria was abandoned to Communist control.

July 22. Desmond Tutu. Desmond went to a segregated and underfunded all-Black school in South Africa, where he excelled, by the way.

July 21. Kemmons Wilson. Kemmons was already a movie-theatre-owning millionaire when he took his wife and 5 little children to the capital for a family vacation. They stayed in a $6-a-night motel room, which was not only dingy and cramped, but its price zoomed to $16-a-night as soon as the motel owner saw the kids. Wilson told his wife it wasn’t fair, and within a year, he opened […] The post Kemmons Wilson, US, Founder of Holiday Inns https://www.365christianmen.com/podcast/kemmons-wilson-us-founder-of-holiday-inns/ first appeared on 365 Christian Men https://www.365christianmen.com.

July 18. Jerry Moldenhauer. Jerry loved Jesus Christ, and he loved a young woman. Today’s story is not dependent on the kind of job Jerry had or the place he lived.

July 9. Ken Weigel. Ken struggled in some ways about finding his best place, about exactly what God was calling him to do.
