From a Hopeless to a Hope Lives Mindset, with Nationally Acclaimed Inspirational Speaker, Dr. Rick Rigsby, Ep. 106

The Built Different Podcast with Zach Clinton

I think we can all attest to the fact that times will inevitably come in life that seem too hard to bear. Challenge and adversity keep piling up leaving us doubtful and discouraged for what lies ahead. However, it’s in these difficult yet defining moments where the trajectory of our lives can be transformed. For today’s guest, Dr. Rick Rigsby, his defining moment took the place of him weeping at his late wife’s funeral after her bout with breast cancer, when he looked up to his father and breathed the words, “Dad, I’ve lost hope.” His father’s response however changed the trajectory of his life… “Son, you can’t lose something God gave you. You haven’t lost hope, you’ve lost perspective.” Because of that timely reminder, Dr. Rigsby is now a best-selling author, podcaster, and one of the most sought after inspirational speakers of our day and age. Many may know about him from a powerful message he delivered at a commencement ceremony that went viral a few years back titled, “Lessons I Learned from a 3rd Grade Dropout!” In and throughout this episode, Dr. Rigsby shares some of those lessons and wants to help you understand that the Storms in this life are what help us see the Savior.
