Slavery is a thing of the past, right? Well, maybe not... If the definition of slavery is to be owned by someone else, what would it be called to be owned by SOMETHING else?

Make sure to listen to this episode and share it out so we can end this modern day slavery as soon as possible!

If you have ever heard the saying that "nice guys finish last" you probably think it's because they are getting pushed over by the "mean guys." What if that wasn't the case at all? What if the goal is to NEVER become the nice guy at all? In this episode, Derek reflects on a conversation that he recently had that made this point crystal clear and how he was the "nice guy" in a situation that really came back to bite as it almost always does. Although our culture may try to convince you that being a nice guys (or gal) is something we should all strive for, it's not true and it's also not biblical despite what your pastor or teacher may tell you. If you've fallen into that nice guy situation or if you always wonder why it seems that you aren't getting the respect that you should, this is a must listen!
