Omar you're amazing bro , didn't know you were a believer in Christ this gives me so much encouragement and inspiration.
Praise God!!
I don't have Apple podcast but I do have RUclips, so...
Thanks for posting. I've been following you for some time with ThinkMedia and your church services. Nice to see how it all comes together. Looking forward to episode 2 🙂
😮😅❤
No puedo dejar de llorar 🥹 como esposa de pastor, empresaria y trabajadora a tiempo completo, me guiaron a este vídeo. Tantas preguntas y en necesitad de mentoria. Espíritu Santo, te necesitamos continuamente en nuestra vida, ministerio y emprendimiento 🙌🏻🪡🧵
This is hands down the most relatable piece of content I've EVER HEARD. It's EXACTLY what I needed to hear right now in this season. So much of your story is where I've been, where I'm at, and where I think the Lord is calling me. Thank you for pulling back the curtain and authentically sharing your journey. You're the 🐐and an inspiration 🤟🏻
Thank you Zac! Taking the time to write this is much appreciated! Grateful God can use me to confirm what he wants to do in your life!
I tried catching up with Think Media for a second and noticed we are not there anymore. So, I literally searched your name on RUclips and found this channel! Glad you're still around. I like your content a lot and I'm excited for this podcast. New subscriber here!
Glad you found me again! Appreciate you!
Not even too far in and this is what I needed
"This is the will of God, to build His church. If you've ever wondered like, "what's my purpose in life?", just start there. Find a local church, and give your life to it." 💯💒
BOOM 💥
If you're secure in what you do that's a superpower, amen to that! I'm in a new age dominated industry as a wellness practitioner and ontological coach and standing firm as a born again, Bible believing follower of Jesus Christ! Yah baby! To me a minute to stand in that security, but now I'm there and I am unstoppable in Him!! Thanks so much for standing on your calling!
Passion + insecurity = just being loud! 💥
30:40 that's the master key right there!
Like many others, I too was surprised to hear you're a Christian.
May the Lord keep and preserve you Omar
He ate and left no crumbs😂😂😂. The selling yourself part is so relatable. I feel so bad for wanting to charge people.
The people curse him who holds back grain, but a blessing is on the head of him who sells it. Proverbs 11:26
Selling is serving!
Yes!!!
Found you through Think Media. LOVING this conversation! God and I have a whole history with podcasting and me trying to “do both” for the past 15 years. I’m inspired to find more of my security in Christ and “do what I do” than trying to fit into a formula.
“Doing both as seeing as one” security in who you are! Being present. So many gems dropped. Continue to build churches and be great at everything you are doing.
Thanks fam!
Love this. As a pastor and entrepreneur, the word that the Lord dropped on my heart recently is “integration.” It’s all in service of the one thing. Thanks for reinforcing that with your story. Also committed to finally starting RUclips in 2024 so gonna be an epic year!
You can do it, bro! Proud of you!
37:00 Making emphasis on submission to authority is really making me resonate more with you, Sir
Thank you so much for this, Omar! 🙌
It's so inspiring to see believers EXCEL and THRIVE at what they do, regardless of whether or not it's done inside the work of ministry. As Christians, We're called to REPRESENT Christ in every sphere of influence, and your story just encourages me so much to keep on dreaming BIG for the Lord and working HARD and FAITHFULLY to see God's kingdom advance.
Whatever He's placed in my hands is all that I need to bear fruit.
God bless you more! 🙏
Thank you Paulo!
Listened to the end…thanks for sharing this! I haven’t started my RUclips channel or podcast yet…but hearing your perspectives on Ministry and Money is helpful! When first “planning my course” I was thinking I would at first keep my beliefs less “prevalent” with the idea that it would allow more people who were not believers to feel comfortable and become “fans” without/before feeling “preached at” here and there. But the more I’ve planned-the more I realized…how can I not! For one thing-My faith and beliefs are who I am, the reason for my wisdom, hope, creativity, vision, give me purpose -etc. The journey of faith is one everyone needs to be on-I think everyone is “on that journey” whether they realize it or not.
Secondly-people want authentic, people want truth. When I believe I’ve found answers-THAT IS worth sharing! ❤
Makes sense that our work, money and beliefs should be connected if we are functioning optimally. 😊
Excited for this!
Thank you Isaac!!
So transparent, so you. Awesome man.
Thank you! Glad I was able to share my heart on this one!
🎉🎉New sub! Excited for the blessings of God over your podcast ministry, family and faith! Thanks for serving 🫡 the Kingdom and the nation!
Thank you!
Security In My Identity! Thank you, so much for sharing your testimony.
Bro. Loving this episode. Very encouraging to me at the stage I’m at in life. Getting me amped for my next season. Getting creativity flowing with what God’s put in my hands to help build his house.
Let’s go!!
Wow, I wouldn’t have ever thought you were a pastor!! This is awesome and so inspiring.
Let’s Go!
Let’s go!!! 🎉🎉
Let’s go bro ! Excited to jump I and watch
Love this conversation SO MUCH! I can relate to everything from the beginning, growing up as a Catholic, to the end, the challenge of selling yourself/your service. Thanks for this!!
Omar, been following you for a couple years through Think Media, and I just started watching your podcast after starting my own podcast and being inspired by your growth and faith in moving forward with such big plans. God bless you bro and may He prosper the work of your hands! love learning from you man.
Appreciate that! DO NOT STOP - it's the only way to win with a podcast
Love this so great man!
Literally, been dope! Praise The Most High! Keep going Omar!
When the MATH ads up! 👀
So good bro! I stepped out of full time vocational ministry for the last 22 yrs into content creation.
Excited about this Pod!
Thank you so much for this podcast and definitely for this first episode! So open and needed for Christians in this RUclips/online business space! So encouraging!
I agree!!!
I’m so happy that you finally listened to Gods voice and pivoted to his direction. I totally love this
This episode was truly a God-send because you articulated so much of what I’ve been wrestling with for the last few years. When God calls you to pioneer something new, it’s tough because you don’t see a blueprint that you can emulate. But hearing you talk about this reaffirmed for me that I don’t have to choose passions and have God’s green light to innovate. THANK YOU BRO! ❤
Timely is an understatement! Your story hits hard right where I am and your wrestling, lessons, and questions brought a lot of clarity and peace. Keep growing the Kingdom, man!
Praise God!
I've had this video on my heart for a minute to watch in my watch later list. I'm so grateful that I did because it was very inspiring and insightful. Especially because I just recently started my own coaching business and will soon start my podcast. This was definitely a blessing to see someone who is in business and a solid representative of the Gospel. Keep going you guys
Thanks Russell!
The Lord shut the lions mouth. He said if God is for us, who can be against us? Blessings brother and congratulations! I’ll be watching lots of these as I try to expand myself!! 🙌🏽
Let's go!
So glad I found you man.
So glad you're here!
Every gem that you dropped was right on time! Thank you!
Thank you Kazia!!
I loved this episode! Your transparency about your ministry is what makes you so relatable and reputable. You are a true gem. Arthur does look like he could be your son or little brother!! Congratulations on the baby and the church being built. You are truly a Blessing!
Thank you! That's great feedback!
Wow! I received a similar prompting from the Holy Spirit as well Omar. It's been about 10 yrs ago however I continue to "get ready for your close up" by faith. Just launched my podcast 4 weeks ago! So excited for this podcast! Honestly not much out there like this! May God prosper your work!
🙂
This first podcast went crazy! Good stuff Omar 🔥
I am absolutely astonished. I happened upon you via Think Media via Chalene Johnson years ago. As a Christian and a former social media scholar, I was just watching and learning. Fast forward to now, I have my own practice as a financial advisor in Albuquerque and the home office of my company is based in Las Vegas. And just now, watching the video, you mentioned a family from Belen, NM helping to build a church in LV. Wow! God's connections just blow my mind. I'm excited to see the work you will do with your new podcast!
I am amazed at how on time this podcast episode hit my feed 🙌 THIS is the best podcast I've ever come across. Thank you @Omar for obeying the call . God knows I needed this
That's huge, thank you!
This is precisely the message I need this season. I've never encountered someone explaining the concept of yielding to authority in such a unique manner. Thank you, Omar, for sharing this perspective.
Thank you for your testimony, Omar!
GREAT show! OMAR dropped bars! AND what a family affair, your first episode with your wife AND SON ART!!! LOL
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much for sharing this video. I didn't know you were Christian too. I really enjoy how you and Sean talk about your faith!
God bless
Literally my favorite!!!!🎉🎉
Not my first time watching but I had to watch Ep. 001. Keep going and God bless.
So pumped for this pod! Incredible intro.
Arts the best!
Let’s go!!!! This podcast is 🔥🔥🔥
thank you Layla!
YAY Omar!!! So many good points. Loved it so much, and looking forward to more!! Blessings bro!
Thank you!!
I am fan of your youtube content. Can't wait for more 🎦
Omar is the 🐐
love you bro
Amazing testimony, Omar. One thing you may think about doing if you ever share to this depth on your personal spiritual testimony is to build a bridge to other Catholics. I've started a nonsectarian podcast myself, and thanks to your teaching about Premiere Pro I'm becoming a fairly decent digital video editor (still a lot more to learn).
It is so encouraging at my age to see young people like yourself moving forward. Congratulations on the coming son. Keep on keeping on!
Amen! Will do!
Thanks so much Omar for continuing to share your real life ministry in such an amazing way. You make this mix of business and ministry so relatable showcasing your real life journey , with key underlying principles , and showcase how not to see them as separate activities , but as one of the same thing. I am locked and loaded, and will be tuned in to hear more inspirational stories from other people in their "departments"
AMEN! Thank you!
Already inspired!
AWESOME!!
Amazing Omar! This was super dope! ❤
Thank you for going for it!!! Love the concept of owning your department and hearing from people doing just that.
The Dept is ministry to me as much has in church ministry
Amen! Appreciate you!
Super excited to see you launching the podcast. When I met you it was kind of intimidating but the crazy thing is you are super down to earth and very much willing to add value on your “department” the expertise on media and faith. I got lots of takeaways especially what is Christianity which as a Catholic I wasn’t really sure what it was about and you made it very easy to understand which is probably one of your other “departments”. Dude now you gotta go and gives us more content.
THANKS FAM! Yes, I'll be dropping more heat!
Nice work. You are a solid dude with a caring soul. I'm not really a religious guy so some of this didn't really speak to me. However, you can tell that you want to help others and it shows. Keep up the good work...
Great Nuggets Omar!! Thank you.
Amazing Job brother for always listening to God telling you to prepare yourself. That is something I have done throughout my venture to prepare myself everyone does not have to start the right way if they prepare the things that need to be done.
It will get done no matter what it takes you will have everything you need. To finish the work you sent to do on earth. If something big they you will get the work done might take a long time but you will get the work done on time.
Love your content! So inspiring. Keep it up!!! God Bless
I absolutely love this 🎉🎉
Congratulations on the new baby! 🎉
Perfect timing with great messages! Excited for what’s to come 😁 Congratulations Omar! Your content is 🤌🏽✨✨✨
Omar you really inspire me to be better in content creation! Keep up the amazing work and look forward to what God has for you!! 🙏🏾
Thank you fam!
Pumped for this show! Excited to add it to my listening rhythm!
Awesome and very relatable. I felt peace and Kingdom throughout the entire podcast. God bless you and your RUclips channel bro.
Great Real Talk!
This podcast is honestly exactly what I’ve been needing! I have a full-time job, serve heavily in ministry as the youth Director and try to do all things in life with excellence! I just decided to do a lot more on RUclips and social media and this podcast could not be better timed. Thank you so much Omar for answering the call!
Your an inspiration bro let’s go 🔥
Thanks bro!
We’ve been waiting for your own podcast!!!! Congratulations to y’all!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
TIME IS NOW SIS! Thank you!
This is awesome Omar. Thanks for sharing
appreciate you for watching
Congrats on the podcast! I enjoyed episode 1, and received value. Thanks for sharing your wisdoms, knowledge, and experiences.
Thank you for the podcast bro! I needed the encouragement. I am the young adults director at my church (which is my passion) but I started my real estate business full time this month. Trying to do both while watching the kids at home has been tough. Pray for me that I can do both like you are doing!
Bro stooooop! I literally say the church is Gods plan an and he doesn’t do plan B!
I deeply relate to you and you deeply inspire me. I have been in the background (PK) but like you haven’t seen anyone be behind and in front of the camera
Have been looking to reset, restart my purpose and your experience is very inspiring for me! Thank you!
Praise God!
Great episode, so excited for this podcast. You have helped so many with your heart, knowledge and elite communication.
That means the world!! thank you!

Your content is incredible! I launch my first podcast in about 2 weeks. Studio is complete, i didnt think there was any podcast like this out there but my dream is literally copy & paste your content hahah. I’ve watched every episode and im passionate about God, entrepreneurship, and i’ve always wanted to have something like a podcast. Just getting the coursge for it now. Thanks for the help through your content & think media as well.
Thank you for the edifying conversation! It's so candid and relatable. I'm currently in a season of transition and trying to manage life, part time work, building a business and ministry commitments. There were a lot of things said here that helped me to reframe my current mindset and encouraged me to keep pursuing the call God has placed on my life. Looking forward to more conversations!
Incredible 💯
