Ep. 155 Mike Murphy - For His glory!

Desiring to win at anything always costs something… what was the cost of becoming a 2 time high school wrestling state champion? Les Schwab career? And now, finding purpose after retirement? How is God still working out HIS plan in Mike’s life? Mike shares his life… high school and college wrestling, his amazing wife, kids, grand kids, a 30+ year career with Les Schwab and his faith in Jesus! Everyone wants to win at something, but it’s rare to win at everything!  With that said, wanting to win in one area of your life will cost you something in a different area of your life! The question is, what is it and was it worth it? Mike is very transparent in this podcast to share his life… winning in wrestling, his career and what the costs were!  The good news… God has a way to draw us back to HIMSELF when we get too far away and bring us back into the fold! You will really enjoy hearing about the joys of Mikes life, what a career with Les Schwab did for him and his family, what his wife, kids and grand kids mean to him. “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16 #DiscipleofJesus #realfaith #retirement #LesSchwab _ _ _ For more stories like this, go to: https://www.youtube.com/@BuddyJamesPuckett If you or someone you know want to be on the podcast, please reach out to me on Instagram @conversationswithbuddy or text me at 503-851-8031.  _ _ _ About Buddy Puckett: Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married.  This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage.  We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well.  Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled, failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ!  “Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6
