    27. Sacrifices Over Salary

    To achieve what we want in life, we have to make sacrifices. Small deeds such as being kind and polite to others and prioritizing them when you don't have to is not always convenient but will make you feel good doing so. Tim Crews, based in Virginia, does just that. He helps others find physical homes, but he's equally interested in making sure his actions help others find a spiritual home as well. Enjoy this episode, and be sure to share it with a friend.

    25. Take Your Gifts Seriously

    We have a responsibility to encourage and uplift the voices of young people. Moe Music is one of those voices. Anyone fortunate enough to listen to him recognizes his melodic approach and vocal potential. Based in Richmond, Moe credits his family and community for provoking the beginning of his singing career. Like Dr. King, Moe has a dream, and he's doing all he can to make that his reality. Please sit back and enjoy the rise of a celebrated young artist long before the world recognizes he's worth celebrating.
