Hosts Landon Williams and Bob Willumsen interview Ian Withrow, Memphis branch manager at Barnhart Crane & Rigging, about bringing faith into daily work: weekly Monday prayer, onsite ministry, and a company model that gives half its profits to global missions.

The episode shows how spiritual practices and business excellence can coexist—driving growth, attracting talent, and preparing the team for changed lives, baptisms, and deeper discipleship in the workplace.

Hosts Landon Williams and Bob Willumsen discuss how Christian faith intersects with business leadership, focusing on the reasons behind our goals and the identities we chase.

Using Scripture (John 16, Philippians 3), personal stories, and practical metaphors, they contrast worldly success—wealth and recognition—with the 'complete joy' found in Christ and ask business leaders: what ladder are you climbing?
