What happens when you're pinned underwater, running out of oxygen, and suddenly realize... this is how people die?
In this episode of The Erik Cabral Show, Erik sits down with Bo Parfet–adventure entrepreneur, mountain climber, and faith warrior who's restored sight to over 50,000 people worldwide. They dive deep into his childhood struggles with dyslexia and a speech impediment, the near-death canoe accident in Belize that gave him unshakeable faith, and how a vision on top of Mount Chimborazo led to a mission bigger than any summit.
They talk about what it means to stop making a living and start making a life, why marketplace ministries are revolutionizing faith-driven business, and how prayer before meetings gets the ego out of the room immediately.
This one's packed with wisdom for anyone ready to chase lions instead of settling for comfortable Christianity.
