Monday Motivation | I Gave a CEO More Respect Than I Give God

Do you take God seriously — or are you giving Him whatever time and attention you have left over? In this Monday Motivation, DJ shares a personal moment from a Zoom call with a successful CEO that forced him to confront an uncomfortable question: why did he show up more prepared for a business meeting than he does for time with God? This episode digs into the gap between what we say about God and how we actually show up for Him. DJ walks through Malachi 1:8, where God calls out His people for bringing their worst instead of their best — and connects it to the way many of us treat our faith today. Not out of disrespect, but out of habit. Out of casualness. And that casualness quietly shapes the entire relationship. If you've ever rushed through prayer, gone through the motions of devotion, or realized your time with God gets whatever's left after everything else — this one is for you. DJ doesn't point fingers. He starts with himself. And the honesty might be exactly what you need to hear this week. This isn't about perfection. It's about intention. It's about asking yourself: does my life actually show that God matters?
