In this powerful and hope-filled episode of the Foundational Fathers Podcast, Nick Sash and Marcus Phillips sit down with special guest Carl Joseph to explore what it means to walk in the God-given potential placed inside every believer. From surrender and obedience to the work of the Holy Spirit, this conversation challenges men to stop living beneath their calling and step fully into the life God designed for them.

This episode is for the man who knows there’s more—more purpose, more authority, more freedom—and is ready to stop delaying what God has already spoken.

🔑 Takeaways

God’s calling often precedes our confidence

Potential is unlocked through obedience, not comfort

The Holy Spirit empowers us to live beyond our limitations

Surrender is the doorway to transformation

You don’t discover potential—you walk it out by faith

🎧 Sound Bites

“God doesn’t call the qualified—He qualifies the called.”

“Potential stays dormant until obedience activates it.”

“If God put it in you, He intends to pull it out of you.”
