Description

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface tackle one of the most misunderstood and misused traits in men...ambition. Many Christians have been taught to view ambition as selfish or prideful, but the truth is, ambition is a divine design when it’s submitted to God’s purpose.

Garrett and Nick show the difference between self-driven ambition and God-directed ambition and how to cultivate a mindset that produces action, excellence, and impact. They go into how leaders can identify and stir ambition in others, inspiring them to rise above apathy and live out their calling with focus and fire.

If you’ve ever struggled with complacency, procrastination, or feeling stuck in your potential, this episode will reignite your drive and give you the tools to channel ambition toward obedience, not ego. 

In This Episode You’ll Learn:
  • The difference between ambition and desire
  • The ingredients of ambition and how to use them to develop ambition
  • The importance of belief
  • What leaders can do to awaken purpose and drive in others
