Episode Title: Return to Your Altar

Episode Description:

When everything gets bigger—your family, your responsibilities, your wealth—sometimes you need to go back to the place where it all started. Abram returns to the altar he built, the spot where God first spoke to him, and God says the promise again. Not because Abram forgot. Not because God changed His mind. But because dreams don't happen overnight, and sometimes we need to be reminded that the waiting is part of the journey. Where's your altar? And when's the last time you went back?

In This Episode:

  1. Why Abram returned to the exact spot where he first heard God's voice
  2. The moment when success forces a family to split in two directions
  3. What it means when God repeats a promise He's already made
  4. The struggle of wanting the dream now versus walking through the steps to get there
  5. Finding your personal altar—the place where you feel closest to God

Key Quote:

"Things aren't just going to happen overnight. You've got to take that first step or two steps to get there. Go to your altar—go to a place where you can call on God's name, seek Him, and ask Him about your calling."
