When you meet someone new, one of the first questions you’ll prob ask, is “What do you do?”
The thing is … if we’re saved by grace and not by what we do, then why do we derive our identity so much from what we do for a living?
What we do is important … but it should come from who God says we are. We are so much more valuable than our profession.
In this episode, I talk to Demarick Patton. He used to be a professional storm chaser but now he’s a Jesus lover, husband, father, and entrepreneur. Listen in on our convo.

- Are you a millennial over 30, single, with no kids?
- Do you feel forgotten and like you don’t fit in?
- Do you experience soul-crushing loneliness?
- Do you feel like the church is superficial and filled with empty smiles?
- Where is this abundant life that Jesus talked about?
These are thoughts and feelings that a lot of modern Christians identify with — but don’t know who to talk to about.

In this episode, I conclude my conversation with my good friend, Pastor Roger Kelly.
We start talking about business and how to increase our chances for success, including getting out of survival mode and into an expansion mindset. Then the conversation switches and we start talking about identity and how to be who we were created to be — which to me is a much cooler conversation — Don’t you think?
Feel free to listen in on our conversation!

In this episode of “Chasing the Kingdom” I conclude my conversation with my friend Andrea Garwood. We continue talking about the value of a healthy soul and how the purpose of one is to be able to love others with a greater measure.
About Andrea Garwood:
Pastor Andrea Garwood is an ordained Minister of the Gospel. She was born to Pastors Cornelius and Corilee Garwood, in Jamaica West Indies. She received the gift of salvation as a pre-adolescent child under her parent’s ministry. Pastor Andrea was ordained in Love Gospel Worship Center, where she has served faithfully in ministry for over 19 years. Pastor Andrea serves in various capacities at Love Gospel as Pastor over Pastoral Care, Crisis Counseling, Prayer, and Singles Ministries. Pastor Andrea’s God-given assignment is to preach the Good News of the Kingdom, to bind up the broken-hearted, and to proclaim freedom to the captives and release prisoners from darkness.
Her passion is to aid those in need, comfort those who mourn, and provide consolation to those who are burdened. Because of this passion, God drew her to the ministry of Counseling. She earned a Masters Degree in Counseling and Psychology and has her own private practice in downtown Orlando where she serves the community. She helps women, men, and youth discover who God created them to be and helps them move out of a place of bondage and into a life of freedom. She is a Founder & CEO of Living Well, Counseling Training & Consulting Services where she partners with Churches and other community agencies to address the mental health needs of families in need and in crisis. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and through Living Well, Inc. provides Mental Health Counseling, Consulting, and Healing for the Mind Body, and Spirit. She also works full-time as the Behavioral Health Manager for a large Hospital System here in Orlando.
The thing about Pastor Andrea that is most notable is that she loves God and is eternally grateful to God for saving her. Her greatest desire is to please God in all that she does, for without him, life would not be worth living. You will be blessed as you experience the gift of God through the vessel of God.
