Episode #5 Dale Partridge on being saved from his own success

I’m with my friend, Dale Partridge, giving the real, behind the scenes story of his journey from top-of-the-world startup founder to a man who has been saved (happily) from his own success. 

Dale gets honest about the pressure, the pace, and the kind of “success” that slowly steals your peace. His story is a reminder that God isn’t impressed with our achievements; He’s after our hearts. And sometimes the most loving thing He does is rescue us from the very thing we thought we wanted.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How God saved him from his own success.
• What happened when he realized he was a bad leader. 
• How he was fired from his own startup and what he learned from the experience. 
• How he learned what real success is.

Favorite quotes:

I was a good enough leader to build a great company, but not a good enough leader to sustain a great company.

Where scripture is clear, God looks at our actions. Where scripture is obscure, God looks at our hearts.

If you believe wrong you will never live strong.

Success in this world comes from a firm unwavering practice of filling our souls with God’s truth.

The word Success has been hijacked by the culture. We have reduced it, we have twisted it, and we have molded it into a golden calf for society to worship.

We can’t be successful businessmen if we can ‘t be successful husbands, we can’t build successful organizations if we don’t have successful families, we can’t do successful churches if we can’t do successful relationships.
