Ep.116: John C. Maxwell
Tom visits with John C. Maxwell at RESGEN Men’s Summit 2026 for a meaningful conversation about faith, leadership, and the power of lifelong learning.
How do you know if the life you’re building is truly the one God is calling you to live?
In this episode, Tom sits down with Nick Ovenden—husband, dad, leader, and president of GreatLIFE—for a conversation about calling, stewardship, and becoming the kind of man who leads with both strength and surrender.
Together they talk about:
- The moment Nick realized knowing about God wasn’t the same as walking with Him
- Why true leadership is about developing people, not just driving results
- How stewarding your health impacts the way you show up at home, work, and in your faith
- The impact of mentorship and why we all need to be mentored and mentor others
- The daily disciplines that quietly shape the man you are becoming
Tom and Nick also share relatable leadership and life moments along the way, reminding us that growth rarely happens in the spotlight but through faithful, intentional choices made day after day.
