A proposito di questo titolo

Featuring: John Ramstead Organizations: Beyond Influence; Hangar X Studios In this powerful and deeply personal episode of The Power of OR Podcast, Brad Hawkins and Jim Brangenberg sit down with longtime friend and former Navy fighter pilot John Ramstead to explore the unexpected turns that reshaped his life, faith, and identity. From achieving his lifelong dream of flying F-14s to losing his career overnight, and later surviving a near-fatal accident that led to a profound encounter with Jesus, John shares what it truly means to live with the Power of OR – trusting God when everything familiar is taken away. This is a story of ambition, loss, surrender, healing, and learning that God's plans are often revealed through our greatest disruptions. What You'll Hear in This Episode The mentorship lesson that John learned from his dad and applied to his life The devastating injury that ended his military career just months before Top Gun Losing his identity, struggling with depression, and being a door-to-door cell phone salesman after leaving the Navy A divine encounter with Christ that radically transformed his faith and marriage A second life-altering "OR moment" after a catastrophic horseback accident Why "all things work together for good" became the foundation of his life How suffering reshaped his understanding of joy, identity, and purpose Key OR Moments Top Gun or Total Loss – Chosen for Top Gun, then medically disqualified days later Career Identity or Kingdom Identity – Losing his dream forced John to confront who he really was in Christ Death or Divine Encounter – A traumatic brain injury led to a supernatural experience with Jesus Regret or Redemption – Learning to trust that God redeems even the paths we don't understand Why This Episode Matters John's story speaks directly to anyone who has faced disappointment, career loss, identity crises, or deep suffering. It's a reminder that our greatest calling isn't found in titles, success, or achievements but in intimacy with Christ. This episode challenges listeners to ask: What if the very thing I see as loss is actually God's invitation to something deeper?
