Jesus is Everything – Dr. Bruce Hartman pt 1

Jesus is Everything

Dr. Bruce Hartman pt 1

Many people today are always striving to move up the next rung on the career ladder. Always trying to get more, do more or be more. But, what happens when you achieve it? What’s next? How many would put on their resume that, they would leave it the corporate world behind and enter into their true life’s calling – of serving the Lord?

My guest today has done just that. Dr. Bruce L. Hartman, a former CFO for Fortune 500 firms, such as Yankee Candle Company and Foot Locker, he left the corporate world to follow Jesus and received his Doctorate in ministry. In a storytelling fashion, he gives practical insights on how to have a strong faith life and the power of Jesus. His first four books, “Jesus & Company”, “Your Faith Has Made You Well” , and about a year ago, Dr. Hartman was on our program discussing his book, “Spend A Year With Jesus”, But today, we will be discussing his recent book is titled, “Jesus Is Everything: Discovering It All When There Is Nothing Left But Jesus.”

Let me ask you, when you were contemplating making the move from your corporate career and returning to school to earn Masters in Divinity degree and then continuing on to earn your Doctorate – what was the driving motivation that prompted you to make that kind of move?

I know that, in your heart, you believe you were making the right move. What about your peers in the corporate world? What were their thoughts on what you were about to do and how did that weigh on your mind?

You emphasize you are not a traditional minister. But you sensed the Lord was calling you into a form of media ministry. Can you explain that for us?

What made you believe this book, “Jesus is Everything,” was needful for this time in which we live today?

To live our Faith, to openly serve and proclaim Jesus as Lord, as you say, to “live the Gospel,” – that requires courage in this current politically correct climate today. Does your book share how someone who may be struggling with sharing their Faith, how they can find the courage to take a Faith stand in the face of this kind of opposition?

You share that following Jesus is simple to understand – but hard to be completely faithful 100% of the time. What should we do when we come up short and are now feeling a sense of “letting the Lord down?”

In the first chapter of your book, you discuss “The man in the bed.” Can you explain this concept?

Folks, Dr. Bruce Hartman’s book, “Jesus Is Everything: Discovering It All When There Is Nothing Left But Jesus.” Is a must read. In this book, Dr. Bruce Hartman uncovers the REAL JESUS – the man behind the religious legend. And, Dr. Hartman shares what Jesus wants us to accomplish with our lives as well. This book is written for real people, just like you and me, who are seeking answers to real life issues. And for those answers, Dr. Hartman is pointing everyone to Jesus.

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to. We thank you for your commitment to this community and we ask for your support and prayers as we strive to glorify God in all that He calls us to do.
