Steve flew to Las Vegas to sit with Granger Whitelaw for this one, and was it worth the trip! Granger is both a venture capitalist and the Executive Chairman of Faithstone Capital Partners, a faith-based investment bank. He's spent more than 30 years in finance, mergers and acquisitions, and building companies. He's been a Wall Street banker, led public companies as CEO, founded Rocket Racing, and he's started several organizations to give back. With a deep passion for Kingdom impact, Steve and Granger talked about faith, money, leadership, and what it looks like to take God to work. Grab a coffee and settle in. This is a good one.

Steve Brandt is the founder of Steve's Livestock Transport. Steve started in 1987 with one truck, one trailer, and no money for a down payment. He bought that first rig on a handshake and paid it back like he promised. Today his company is the largest commercial livestock carrier in North America. Along the way he also built Blue Water Wash, which pioneered better ways to clean and sanitize the big rigs that haul cattle and hogs across the continent. Steve is an entrepreneur, innovator, business leader and investor. His story is built on prayer, pain, and hard work, and he doesn't keep his success in his pocket. He's a generous philanthropist with a passion to see the Good News reach the ends of the earth.
