When Clifton Ross Jr. and Kiyanni Bryan first met at a Black Christian Influencers event, they immediately connected like family despite coming from different worlds. Now, in this soul-stirring conversation, they dive deep into the delicate balance of building purpose while raising children.

Kiyanni shares her remarkable journey from banking executive to clinical program manager and entrepreneur, revealing how her publishing company was born from her own struggles as an author. With refreshing candor, she discusses the challenges of single motherhood while pursuing her calling: "I was thinking that since I was at every game, every practice, I was fulfilling something... but later discovered my daughter felt like a 'preacher's kid' who saw ministry take the front seat."

This conversation delivers powerful wisdom about creating proper infrastructure for your purpose. Kiyanni emphasizes that purpose is not instant revelation but an ongoing pursuit that requires character alongside competency. She challenges listeners to examine whether they're building with God or merely asking Him to bless what He never ordained: "We've built in His name and gathered in His name and not even invited Him to the party."

The most touching moments come when discussing how children actually refine our purpose rather than distract from it. While Kiyanni’s mother taught her to pray, motherhood transformed her into an intercessor—someone who strategically battles against spiritual forces targeting loved ones. This distinction revolutionizes how we view the integration of family and calling.

The journey from brokenness to divine alignment forms the powerful foundation of this raw and transformative conversation with Sammie Rogers. With remarkable vulnerability, Sammie shares his testimony of hitting absolute rock bottom—living in his car despite having a job—and how this moment of complete surrender became the catalyst for his spiritual rebirth.

What unfolds is a masterclass in spiritual resilience. Sammie reveals how God systematically rebuilt his life, providing housing, restoring his finances, and rekindling his passion for worship music. But the true revelation comes through his insights on maintaining spiritual alignment through both blessing and testing seasons. "Everybody wants God's blessings and glory, but nobody wants the suffering," he reflects—a profound truth that challenges comfortable Christianity.

Perhaps most compelling is Sammie’s insight that "God throws pebbles before he throws bricks"—though he laughingly admits that in his experience, God often skips straight to the bricks. This humor-laced honesty makes his testimony relatable to anyone who's felt the weight of divine correction.

Ready for a spiritual reset? This conversation will challenge you to examine your own alignment with God's purpose and embrace the uncomfortable seasons that often precede your greatest breakthroughs. Sometimes the most powerful spiritual transformations happen when we're least comfortable—and that's exactly where God wants to meet you.

What happens when God transforms your greatest weakness into the very vehicle for your calling? In this compelling conversation, host Clifton Ross Jr. welcomes Apostle Marc Montgomery who reveals his remarkable journey from childhood speech impediment to powerful prophetic ministry.

Both men explore the counter-intuitive spiritual principle that our weaknesses become our greatest strengths. Montgomery explains why every prophetic person must contend with ongoing pain: "People who receive a lot of revelation from God have to be prepared to deal with constant pain... because that's the thing that's going to keep you humble."

Parents will find particular value in Montgomery's insights about creating a "dream culture" in families—how normalizing spiritual experiences for children expands their imagination and establishes healthy spiritual foundations.

Whether you're wrestling with personal limitations, seeking to understand prophetic ministry, or desiring to create a spiritually vibrant family culture, this conversation offers wisdom that transcends religious formality and speaks to the heart of human purpose. Subscribe now and discover how God might be using your greatest challenge as a doorway to your destiny.
