[00:00:00] Jason: There’s so much wisdom in there and if you can at least just be willing to extract wisdom wherever you can find it, then you’re not an idiot And so at least start there, everybody listening, just look for wisdom, be a seeker of wisdom and look for the things that are better and higher.

[00:00:34] DoorGrow property managers love the opportunities, daily variety, unique challenges and freedom that property management brings. Many in real estate think you’re crazy for doing it.

[00:01:13] Now let’s get into the show. 

[00:01:17] So my guest today, I am honored to hang out with Ryan Pineda. Ryan, welcome to the show. 

[00:01:22] Ryan: Hey, happy to be here. Good to see you. 

[00:01:25] Jason: So Ryan, I’d love to kick things off by getting into your background of how you kind of got into this journey of entrepreneurship. But before we do that, your company’s called Wealthy Investor, right?

[00:01:36] Yep. And you’ve worked with a lot of real estate investors. My target audience listening to the show are usually the vehicle or the support mechanism for a lot of investors. I think the audience would be interested in hearing a little bit about how you got kind of started into entrepreneurism first of all, and then maybe how you got into real estate.

[00:01:57] Ryan: Yeah, I’ll give the quick story. You know, I never wanted to get into real estate or entrepreneurship. I was a baseball player growing up and that was all I wanted to do. I was grateful and thankful that I was able to actually do that. You know, I ended up getting drafted by the Oakland A’s and got to play professional baseball for eight years.

[00:02:15] But, I didn’t get paid much in the minor leagues. I never made it to the bigs. I was making 1200 bucks a month. And so I had to make money elsewhere. And that’s what led me in entrepreneurship. You know, I got my real estate license in 2010. Yep. And, you know, so I’ve been in the game for about 15 years now.

[00:02:32] And, you know, I’ve seen a lot. You know, started as an agent and hated it. My mom was actually a property manager. I didn’t tell you that. So, I watched her do that for a little bit while being an agent as well. So she was an agent herself, but you know, watching her, I had no desire to be an agent or do anything in real estate because when I got in in 2010, she had just lost everything.

[00:02:53] You know, and she’s like, you need to get like a safe job. You need to get something that has a salary and a pension. That was literally her advice. Well, and I was like, yeah, maybe, I don’t know. Hopefully this baseball thing works out. But while I’m playing, I can’t get that. So I’m going to have to do something.

[00:03:11] So anyways, I become an agent. Hate it. Do it for a few years. Ended up getting into other weird things. I started flipping couches. I was a substitute teacher. I was just doing anything that could make a buck on the side. And then eventually that led to flipping houses in 2015.

[00:03:27] And that was when I, for the first time, started to make some real money. And yeah, I mean, by my third year, I had made, you know, I became a millionaire after year three, flipping houses. And it was just like, wow, this is crazy. And since then I flipped, you know, I think almost 600, 700 homes. And. You know, I’ve bought rentals.

[00:03:47] I own apartment buildings through our syndication. You know, we’ve coached people, like you said, with wealthy investor. We’ve coached thousands of students and held really big events. You know, I’ve started another subsidiary businesses for real estate investors. You know, we have a lead generation company called Lead Kitchen where we help them get leads for sellers.

[00:04:05] We have, you know, I had a tax firm, you know, I’ve kind of done almost everything you can imagine in the real estate world, but 

[00:04:10] Jason: Yeah, that’s a lot. So I’m curious you said your mom was a property manager and she gave you the advice It was kind of like maybe steer clear of this stuff.

[00:04:19] What does your mom think now about everything? 

[00:04:22] Ryan: You know what? She’s still always hyper cautious so, you know, I retired my parents in 2019 I bought him a house bought him all the cars and everything and my dad actually started working for me in 2018 as a project manager. So he would oversee a lot of our flips and even to this day, he still does it.

[00:04:42] Not cause he has to, because he’s just like, well, if you’re going to, you know, pay for us, I might as well like earn it, you know, and he just wants to support and whatever. So, You know, my dad understands the game. My mom though, obviously she’s seen the results, but she’s still always hyper cautious.

[00:04:57] And so, she doesn’t think I need to get a job now, but she does think a lot of times the big risk I take, I shouldn’t be taking. 

[00:05:05] Jason: Yeah. Looking back, when do you see in hindsight that there were clues that you were maybe destined to be an entrepreneur? Maybe even doing baseball.

[00:05:16] Ryan: Yeah. I look back in hindsight, even as a kid and I was always buying and selling and thinking about money. Like I started an eBay account when I was like 12 years old. I remember. You know, buying stuff and bidding on stuff and getting good deals on eBay. And then I remember I was selling Pokemon cards and Yu Gi Oh cards, you know, in middle school and stuff.

[00:05:37] And it’s just like, You know, the signs were always there. And then even I was always attracted to just making money myself. So like I was good at poker, you know, I won poker tournaments and I played online and I made money that way. And so in hindsight, it was always very clear. I was never going to have a job.

[00:05:53] Really the only true job I ever had was playing baseball. And even then it’s like, yeah, there’s not really a way to be an entrepreneur. I mean, you kind of are you’re in charge of your career and how well you want to do and like how well you want to train and. And so, yeah, even in that sense, baseball is kind of in that same vein.

[00:06:12] Jason: Yeah. So I’m sure even to get as far as you got in baseball, there was a lot of drive involved and a lot of effort involved, even though there wasn’t a lot of pay, it sounds like. 

[00:06:25] Ryan: Yeah, I think yeah, for me, like, I had to learn how to like win, you know, at the end of the day, losing is not an option, right?

[00:06:33] It’s a zero sum game in sports. One person wins, one person loses, you know, for the pitcher to succeed, you must get out. And so, dude, I’m like, I’m going to just figure out how to win. I’m competitive. And so I think competitiveness has always fueled me. It’s different in business now because I understand the games that we play.

[00:06:52] It’s like, you know, We both can have good podcasts. We both can win in business. You don’t need to lose for me to win. But that doesn’t mean I’m still not competitive. 

[00:07:00] Jason: Sure. Yeah. I’m sure in the different industries that you have businesses that you focus on, you have competitors and you probably want to win.

[00:07:09] Ryan: I don’t want to lose. 

[00:07:11] Jason: Right. I want to be the best. I think that’s true of most entrepreneurs. There’s this drive or, this bite to win. You know, I remember early on, I think some of my first clues as to that I might be an entrepreneur is I was into music. And I remember in college, I was going around door to door pre selling CDs so that I could fund doing an album.

[00:07:31] And yet I still at the time was thinking I’ve got to get a degree to get some sort of job to rise the corporate ladder. And I had no clue that entrepreneurism was like a path at the time. So it’s interesting and Entrepreneurism sort of found me In that I needed a way to not be doing a nine to five job to be able to take care of kids because I ended up as a single father right and divorced and like went through all this stuff.

[00:07:57] And so I was like, all right, what can I do? And so I sometimes joke that my kids turned me into an entrepreneur. It was just what needed to be done, but there were always clues before, right? So you know, one of the things that you’ve talked about a lot, I’ve noticed on your social media, on podcasts is you’re very faith forward.

[00:08:15] Like you’re very comfortable talking about your faith and like the things that kind of motivate you and drive you. And you’re involved in some charitable sort of, you know, businesses or charitable entities or organizations as well. How does faith sort of play into all of this when it comes to business for you?

[00:08:33] Ryan: Well, you know, I grew up in the church. So, you know, for those who don’t know, I’m a Christian. And you know, I grew up in a baptist church and you know, faith was always a part of my life. And I felt like for the most part, I did things the way God wanted me to. You know, I didn’t really rebel and go crazy in college, got married young.

[00:08:51] You know, I’ve always tried to put God first and everything. And You know, I think in the last couple of years, God was just pushing me to get even more deep in faith and more bold and to really embrace the spiritual and supernatural side of faith because I was always a very theologically sound person.

[00:09:11] And you know, I’ve read the Bible many times, and, you know, I spent a lot of time, like I said, in church and serving and other things, but you just realize in everything in life, especially with faith, that there’s so little that you actually know, and you know, as I’ve grown in my faith, I’ve learned to hear from God better.

[00:09:29] And tune out all the noise of everything else going out in life, right? I mean, there’s so many distractions in life. There’s your business, there’s social media, there’s your kids, your family, you know, the recession, the election, it’s like distraction. I think that’s Satan’s biggest, yeah, that’s Satan’s biggest tool is to distract you from the truth.

[00:09:49] And so the truth was God wanted me to get more bold and to really use my platform for him, not for me. And, you know, with that, I became convicted to just really go all in because I mean, one thing I guess people would notice about my career too, is like, there’s no really lukewarmness, you know, when I go all in on something.

[00:10:09] It’s like, yo, if we’re going to throw an event, it’s going to be crazy. If we’re going to start this, we’re going on a blitz. And so I said, you know what, we need to start something for Christian entrepreneurs and Christian business people. And so, you know, I created Wealthy Kingdom last year and you know, we’re a nonprofit and, you know, we have three goals.

[00:10:27] Well, I shouldn’t say three goals. The one goal, the mission is to bring the kingdom to the marketplace. And what I mean by that is so many entrepreneurs just think it’s the church’s job to, you know, go get people saved and to go disciple people. And it’s like, yeah, you know, just invite them to church on Sunday.

[00:10:44] It’s like, no, our job, every Christian has this goal or mission. You know, Jesus tells us right before he left, he said that the mission here is you need to go make disciples of all nations. We all have that same mission. And it’s like, it’s not to make the most money. It’s not to do the thing that you love.

[00:11:05] Like, Jesus never said do the thing that you love. Like that’s another big lie that, you know, people have been told. 

[00:11:12] Jason: Jesus didn’t even do what he loved necessarily. Like to a degree, he said, I don’t even do my own will. Yeah. He does the will of him who sent me. Right. He’s like, I’m not even doing my own will.

[00:11:22] And so if that’s a model, then maybe it’s not about just selfishly doing our own will all the time. 

[00:11:29] Ryan: Absolutely should not. Our will, as we grow should be more aligned with the father’s will. And that’s what sanctification is. So anyways, to, to long story short. God called us to go be disciples where we’re at.

[00:11:42] We don’t like, we need to go make disciples of all nations right now. That’s in our job, in our career, in our business, at an event, whatever. And so I took that to heart. So we started you know, looking at everything that we currently do. And we said, well, let’s do it for the King. And so I said, all right, well, let’s get a kingdom based community.

[00:12:01] And so, you know, we started an online community because that’s something we currently do in business. It’s like, well, let’s get one kingdom based. And so we have that it’s completely free. Anyone can join it. Then I said, let’s throw events. We throw a lot of events. Why are we not throwing kingdom events?

[00:12:14] And so we started throwing big events for the kingdom. And in fact, in my secular events, I just started throwing worship services and pastors in the middle of the event without even telling anyone. Because I’m like, look, this might be the only time they ever hear the good news in their entire life.

[00:12:31] And, you know, whatever they might like it, they might not like it, but I don’t really care. They need to hear it. And so we started incorporating faith into our events. You know, and then the last thing was really just discipling the current believers because I’m all about the lost. I want to get the lost at the events.

[00:12:50] With our content, with our community, but also too, what about the people who are already saved? Well, we need to disciple them and make them better. And so we started running Bible studies all across the country. And I think we’re close to a hundred, actually across the world right now, that meet every single week in people’s offices, in their homes.

[00:13:07] And we all go through the same studies together in these Bible studies, across as a body. And it’s really cool. So, yeah, we’re trying to attack it from a lot of different angles. 

[00:13:18] Jason: It’s a lot to organize. 

[00:13:20] Ryan: Oh, yeah. But here’s the thing, right? It’s weird because I just said, Hey, don’t do your will. Do God’s will.

[00:13:26] Right. But on the same hand, God gave us all talents, abilities and different life experiences. And so, you know, he calls us to use those to do his will and it’s like all right god gave me a lot of influence online. Why am I not making videos and content, you know helping people understand what that means?

[00:13:47] God gave me the ability to throw massive events. We threw wealth con every quarter a thousand plus people every quarter for years. Why am I not throwing massive events for the kingdom? God gave me the ability to organize communities and groups and all these things. Why am I not organizing and using my administrative gifts to do that? And it’s like it’s all the same thing, and they’re all the same gifts and they’re all the same skill sets, but on one hand you’re putting him first and on the other hand you’re putting yourself first 

[00:14:16] Jason: Yeah, I love the idea of you know positively impacting the world I think business a lot of people don’t realize I think business really there’s no more efficient business model for positively changing the world than business, right?

[00:14:31] I don’t think charities don’t function as well like businesses. There’s an exchange of value And if there’s value like behind it and there’s a mission and a purpose behind it Then even the team members the employees everybody Are more lit up and excited and so business is a very efficient business model and you know, one of my past mentors, Alex Charfen, and he would say something to the effect of like entrepreneurs are the people that have changed the world throughout history.

[00:14:57] They’re the people that kind of think differently. And you know, you mentioned the word disciple like several times and I love the scripture where it’s like, how do you know who’s a disciple, right? And it’s by this shall men know, right? You’re my disciple. If you have loved one towards another and I think you know this spreading this message of like sharing true principles Which I think is what makes scripture, right?

[00:15:20] It’s that there’s true principles that can be applied to things that are useful and I think a really good business book will have maybe one key principle it teaches, but then you take a book like the bible and it’s just full of lots of different instances of principles that these levers that you can apply to various situations in your life or in decision making.

[00:15:39] And you know, that’s always been sort of my purpose, I feel is to bring principles to people and to share principles of truth to others, because I feel like that’s the easiest lever to impact people’s mindset or change their lives is to bring some truth or light or some true principles that they can apply, especially if it’s facilitating more love or more kindness.

[00:16:01] And there’s so many different things different principles that apply in business in order to figure things out like related hiring related to you know running an efficient business 

[00:16:11] Ryan: How do you know like a non profit is a business right? I mean, it’s a non profit. 

[00:16:15] Jason: Yeah, it is. It is a business. Yeah.

[00:16:17] Ryan: A church is a business technically based on its designation, Wealthy Kingdom is a business.

[00:16:22] It’s a nonprofit, right? I mean, in many cases, well, I shouldn’t say this because every nonprofit’s different, but like for me, I make literally nothing from it. You know, I do it out of a, you know, I just want to do it. Now we have employees, we have staff, we have marketing, we have event costs, we got to pay for all this stuff.

[00:16:38] Right. And so we got to figure out, man, how do we use the resources we have in the best way possible? Well, it’s the same thing we ask ourself every day in business. We have a limited amount of labor, a limited amount of capital, a limited amount of time. What do we do, you know, to make the most of it? So it’s all the same.

[00:16:57] And I think too, right, you don’t even have to have a nonprofit for this to be the example, right? This is just simply the idea of stewardship. You know, God talks a lot about stewardship and it’s like, well. I’ve given y’all different varying degrees of talent. I’ve put y’all in different places. Y’all are going to be judged accordingly based on how you used your talent.

[00:17:16] And I think that, well, I know that 1, 000, and a lot of Christians don’t realize this. A lot of Christians, so, for all the Christians on the show, this is going to hopefully convict you, okay? A lot of people think that when you get saved, that’s the end of the journey. Yeah, when literally that is like they’ve arrived they’re done.

[00:17:39] You just started! Great!

[00:17:41] Jason: Yeah. 

[00:17:41] Ryan: Now guess what you your whole rest of your life now actually begins and so many people like, God tells us that hey, guess what? Once you’re saved, you know, there’s a new judgment now. Because before it was like, all right, what happens in eternity, right? You’re going to be in heaven.

[00:17:58] You’re going to be in hell. That’s like the salvation question, but then there’s this next question about judgment and stewardship and what you did with what he gave you because Somebody like myself and you will be judged more harshly than other christians and people are like, what does that mean?

[00:18:18] Well, it means that if he gave you more resource and he even says if you’re a teacher and you cause other people to stumble, you are going to be judged significantly more harshly than others. And so I take that super serious because I’m like, all right, yeah, I’m saved. I’m not worried about that, but man, I better do everything in my power to be a great steward and to understand if I have influence and I’m teaching people, I know exactly what I’m saying.

[00:18:44] Jason: Yeah, it’s much like the Parable of the Talents, you know, the worst was like to try and bury it and hide it, hide the money. The person that did the best with the money that he trusted with the most money, like, made twice as much money, like, he increased it significantly, right? 

[00:19:00] Ryan: And he was also given the person’s talent that, who buried his talent.

[00:19:04] Jason: Exactly. He’s like, I’m going to take it away from you because you don’t know how to use this or how to deal with it. And so I think there’s a nice summation of business in that for us, like where much is given, much is required and yeah, I’ve got a little bit of an audience.

[00:19:18] You’ve got a little bit of an audience as well, right? We’ve got these audiences and people are listening, people pay attention to what we’re doing And you know, we have a ripple effect. And I have a ripple effect through my clients who have a ripple effect through all the families that they support, the investors, the team members that they have. And that’s significant and to me, that’s exciting. Like, that’s what motivates me to do what I do.

[00:19:43] That’s inspiring. But yeah, I could see that some people would maybe it would convict them. Maybe they would feel maybe they feel a little ashamed if they thought about it, man, you know, the energy I’m putting out into the world and in the universe here, isn’t the ripple that I really feel is the best ripple I could create.

[00:19:59] Ryan: Well, the other part, too, is obviously we have ripples here on Earth, but, you know, there are ripples for eternity based on our decisions for the people we help and everything else, and, you know, the Bible talks about how, you know, you store up your treasures in heaven, and if you read, you know, a lot of Christians also don’t know this, they think that Heaven is this place where everybody’s equal and, you know, we’re all in the same thing.

[00:20:25] No, it’s actually not like there’s hierarchies in heaven there. Like it’s clear when the disciples are talking to Jesus and they’re like, man, dude, I want to sit on your right hand. He’s like, you don’t even know what you’re asking for. And. you know, they’re clearly trying to be in that inner circle after this too.

[00:20:43] And, you know, you could read all about it. There’s hierarchy with demons. There’s hierarchy with angels. Hierarchy is going to be in heaven. It’s already there. And it’s like, you know, you got a lot of investors on this podcast who are like, Oh man, I got to invest for the future. I got to get my net worth here.

[00:21:01] I got to get my cashflow here. I got to. And it’s like, we’re investing trying to build for the future of this life. And once you truly understand that this life is so short in the span of eternity, you start thinking very differently. And you’re like, well, I would rather invest for eternity. And actually, we just read this book in our Wealthy Kingdom group.

[00:21:21] It’s called Driven by Eternity by John Bevere. It’s a great, one of the most convicting books I’ve ever read. But, he goes, alright. He’s like, I learned this in math. Anything divided by infinity is infinity. And it’s like, eternity is infinity, right? But if you were to try and even just, finitely say it with our brains, let’s just say the next 24 hours, we’re going to dictate the next thousand years of your reward here on earth, right?

[00:21:48] How you spent the next 24 hours would dictate what reward you got for the next thousand years. You’d be like, that’s insane, right? That doesn’t seem right. That, you know, this is going to be 

[00:22:00] Jason: proportionately skewed. To this moment. Yeah, it’s-

[00:22:04] Ryan: that’s not even close to infinity. 

[00:22:07] Jason: Yeah. 

[00:22:08] Ryan: We spend 100 years here on this earth thinking we have all this time. In the scheme of infinity, it’s worse than way where it could be 24 hours to 10, 000 years to a million years, a billion years. It’s still not infinity. And yeah, people just don’t, they don’t think about it because it’s so hard to grasp. But it’s like I wish and this is why god has you know kind of got me more vocal about it.

[00:22:33] So we’re talking about it now But it’s like I want investors because I’m an investor right now, you know, like I’m always looking for the best investment I’m always looking for the best use of my time, but I want people to start thinking about man, Invest for eternity. That’s way longer than this! Your retirement is way shorter than infinity and eternity.

[00:22:54] Jason: Though, could Jesus be a house flipper in the eternities? Because he says in my father’s house, there’s many mansions, right? And he said, I’m going to prepare something for you guys. And so I think what you’re talking about is maybe we should be paying a little less attention maybe to just our real estate assets and our investing here and maybe do some heavenly real estate investing.

[00:23:17] Ryan: I’m being 1, 000, that’s 1, 000 percent what I’m saying. And it’s changed my mindset so much in the last year that I could care less about my net worth. I could care less about how many properties I own. I could care less about any of it. Because eternity is so much greater. 

[00:23:36] Jason: So some people might be saying, Ryan, come on.

[00:23:38] You’re wealthy now. You run Wealthy Investor. You’ve got money. So it’s easy for you to say that. What would you say to the naysayers? 

[00:23:46] Ryan: I would say that I’ve had a certain level of contentness, no matter how much money I had. I made 1200 bucks my entire 20s a month. Okay. So like, I understand what it is to have nothing.

[00:23:57] And you know, people always make an excuse, right? It’s like, I got three kids and a wife, five, five and under, man, I got a special needs son. I spend a lot of time with my kids. And it’s like, well, you know, that’s cause you, everybody’s default is that’s cause you have money or this or that.

[00:24:14] It’s like, no, all these things were built with nothing. They were all built simultaneously. It wasn’t that, oh, this came after that. It’s like, no, they were all built in the same construct. So people just need to realize it’s just an excuse. It’s a cop out. Right. And the other part too, is it’s just a fact of not trusting what the Bible says.

[00:24:33] So if you’re not Christian-

[00:24:34] Jason: which essentially is just not trusting God, 

[00:24:37] Ryan: Yeah, and if you’re not Christian and you don’t believe it, that’s one thing. But if you are a Christian, you cannot say that you are a Christian and then claim that. It is a lie. And it’s like, if you read Matthew [6:33], seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, then everything else will be added to you.

[00:24:54] And so this is where it comes into play of like, if I’m seeking those eternal rewards, everything else will be added to me. Now, does that mean I’m going to be a hundred millionaire billionaire own all these prop-? No, but I do know I’m going to be just fine here on earth. Like, I don’t have to worry about that.

[00:25:11] Like I’ll be taken care of. It’ll be added to me. So I just trust that promise. 

[00:25:17] Jason: Yeah. I think I’ve always just trusted, even when money was tight, I’ve always trusted in my ability to figure things out and that God’s going to take care of me. I just, I bought 

[00:25:27] Ryan: money’s been tight for me many times after I’ve been rich.

[00:25:30] Jason: Yeah. Yeah. 

[00:25:31] Ryan: Like so many times every business owner every you know, Elon Musk, dude I mean the richest man in the world, right? This guy struggles with money like, you know Yeah, dude, he had to buy Twitter for 50 billion dollars he didn’t have 50 billion dollars just laying around It was like the last hour to figure out how to go buy that thing. You know, they tell the story of how he invested all of his, like, 300 million he got from PayPal into Tesla and SpaceX and they were going to both go bankrupt and not make it.

[00:26:01] Yeah. So, you know, I guess it all just is, like, it comes back to this idea that people think that there’s a certain amount of wealth that prevents you from, you know, ever having to work again. And that’s not true. It’s just not true. Like, it can all be taken from you instantly. 

[00:26:16] Jason: So, here’s a thought I have that I think might convict, as you say, you know, Christians or just other people that claim to believe in God.

[00:26:24] Is one thing I’ve noticed is you know, especially among, I guess, poor christians or people that have money issues is that I’ve noticed this action of cursing reality while claiming to love god. It’s like oh well this sucks and this and they’re kind of they’re negative about everything showing up in reality and my favorite name for God in a lot of instances is reality because he says I am what is I am the truth he’s the ultimate and reality always wins God always ultimately wins and I don’t think it’s fair for a christian to claim, I’m like so like faithful to god yet I’m going to curse my reality and complain about reality and complain about how everything is and complain about my family and my spouse and my job and the world and everything else. And there’s such a difference I think in people that are at odds with reality which reality will always win. Reality doesn’t lie reality is what is and those that are actually in alignment with reality, and align their will to god.

[00:27:29] What do you think of that? 

[00:27:30] Ryan: Yeah, I mean look god has been here way before us and here’s another thing. I tell people I’m just like, all right, look, you know Even if you’re not a Christian, right? I think majority of people believe there is something after this life. People believe there is, you know, some supernatural thing.

[00:27:47] Most people would believe in the afterlife and whatever. And then, you know, almost everyone agrees there was nothing and then there was something right. And we would call this the creation of the world. But you know, my belief is, you know, It’s based on the Bible, and the Bible tells us that there was a supernatural world well before this physical world you know, God talks about there was angels, there was all these things happening well before he created the earth, and the earth is going to pass away, and then, you know, You know, it’s going to be back to how it was.

[00:28:16] And you know, it’s like, and you know, there’s going to be a new heaven, new earth, all these things, but my point with that is God was always, that’s just the best he has always been. He will always will be. He will always like he’s past, present, future. He’s just all present. And you know, The other part I struggle with a lot of Christians is they just don’t understand the power that they have.

[00:28:44] You know, they walk in weakness. And in reality, it’s like, Do you realize, an axe, Jesus said or not an axe, but in the Gospels, and then it happened, an axe. He said, look it’s good that I’m leaving you, because you’re going to get something far better than just me being here with you physically. You’re going to get the Helper, and then an axe, they receive the Holy Spirit, literally God living within them, inside of them.

[00:29:08] And it’s like, you have literally the same God that has always been here, that created you, that created this world living inside of you, and you’re worried? What would you ever be worried about? You know, just think like back to just metaphors, you know, would you ever be worried if like, you know financially if you had just like all this money just with you at all times?

[00:29:31] No, you wouldn’t be worried financially. Would you be worried for your physical safety if you had the most elite killers as bodyguards around you at all times? No, you wouldn’t be worried about your safety. You know, like, we have something so much better than all of those things, and we’re worried.

[00:29:46] We think we can’t do things. We don’t trust. 

[00:29:50] Jason: So this is a good question. Let’s bring this back to entrepreneurism. How can people, maybe they don’t believe in God, maybe they, they do, but how do they bring themselves, do you feel, and how do you do this? How do you bring yourself in alignment with this greater power for those that maybe can just believe that or towards the universe or the God that created it?

[00:30:12] How do we start to get ourselves in alignment? So we know we’re on the right path. 

[00:30:15] Ryan: Well, this doesn’t apply to just God. But this is just everything in life, right? You are what you consume. So if I consume junk food and crap, then, you know, I’m going to be fat and my energy will suck and all those things, right?

[00:30:30] Or like for another example, right? If I consume the news all day, 24 seven, right? I’m probably going to be a very skeptical, not trusting person. I’m going to have biases, all these things. Yeah. If I consume entrepreneur content all day and I watch all these guys I’m probably just going to be thinking about making money 24 seven, right?

[00:30:48] You are what you consume in all areas of life and you know, you are the average of the five people you hang around with all of these things are a form of just what you consume And so if you want to become more like jesus you have to consume and get around people that are like Jesus. And so, you know, what does that look like?

[00:31:05] Well, it looks like reading your Bible every day. It looks like praying every day. It looks like hanging around, you know, other Christians who are walking the walk. It looks like going to church on Sundays. It looks like listening to sermons, listening to worship music. You know, you just have to immerse yourself in it and consume it. And that’s how you’re going to become more aligned. It’s crazy because like, I’ll tell you this, and this could sound extreme to people, but it’s like, you start to realize the rest of the things in the world that are deception, right? It’s like, I used to not think rap music and things were like bad.

[00:31:38] You know, I used to listen to gangster rap all the time, man. I love Tupac and all these guys. And then you start to just like, you know, they call me little Ryan. You know, you look, you listen to the lyrics, you know, from a different point of view and you’re like, Oh my gosh, this is not good. This is crazy that I listened to this when I was a kid, I should not have been listening to this.

[00:31:59] Right. Because you start to get convicted if you watch porn, it’s like you’re going to start looking at your wife a different way because you’re just you’re consuming the wrong things. Yeah. Yeah, and even little things start to convict you too. It’s like, for the first time ever, we didn’t celebrate Halloween this year.

[00:32:15] Because I just became convicted that you know, its origins are demonic. And it’s like, you just watch all of this stuff with it. And it’s like, yeah, definitely none of this glorifies God. If it doesn’t glorify God, why would I do it? You know? And it’s like it glorifies demons and, you know, all of these dark things, it’s like, that doesn’t seem proper.

[00:32:39] Jason: Yeah, like, you know, it’s kind of that balance of how to be in the world, but not of the world, right? Like Jesus was hanging out with publicans and sinners and he was around people, but he also wasn’t like just doing everything that they were doing. And so, yeah, I think that’s an interesting concept.

[00:32:53] I like, though, what you said about. And that wasn’t even where my head was going, when I asked the question, but I love that you said like look at the people that you’re choosing to be around. There’s a consumption there and There’s this book called the Dark Side of the Light Chasers it’s by Debbie Ford and it’s interesting because she talks about in it that we each have this golden side and we also have this dark side to us and the golden side Is the side of ourselves that we see reflected in others that we of the people that we look up to. And there’s different people that kind of trigger that in us.

[00:33:25] Some people, for example, like look at Donald Trump, very polarizing figure. Some people look at him and are very triggered and their dark side is triggered. They see a narcissist, they see all these negative attributes and then there’s some that look at him and they’re like, Oh, he’s an entrepreneur or he’s strong or he’s masculine or whatever.

[00:33:42] Right? And they look at the golden side. And I think what we see in other people and the people we choose to be around, we want to choose to be around people that we perceive as having a light. Somebody that has something that we want and attributes that we want to become more like. And I think choosing to do that, especially in choosing mentors, is important.

[00:34:01] Because you’re going to ultimately become a little bit more like them. And that doesn’t mean every mentor that I choose is, like, ahead of me in every key area of life. But if they’re at least in the area a little bit ahead of me in success in the area I’m getting coaching from then I’m going to absorb that but I’m careful not to take on everything else and to be discerning and to use discernment.

[00:34:23] I think it’s important like you said to be around people that you perceive as being a high caliber or people that you believe are moving towards greater light. 

[00:34:33] Ryan: I agree with all of it. 

[00:34:36] Jason: Love that. All right. So Ryan, what if somebody is listening to this and we talked a lot about like kind of faith, God, religion, stuff like this, and somebody who’s like, okay, maybe I’m willing to entertain the idea that God exists.

[00:34:54] Maybe Jesus is somebody I should like figure out, what would you say is a good first step for those people? 

[00:35:02] Ryan: Well, you know, obviously like the Bible is the truth, right? That’s God’s revelation to us. And so a lot of people are like, well, I don’t even know where to start with the Bible. I would say step one buy a study Bible.

[00:35:13] So I would just go on Amazon. I would just, I would get an IV study Bible. It’s very simple. So that way it has you know, just notes on the side for you to help you understand what it’s saying and different questions. And so, you know, I have a study Bible right here. So this is, you know, maybe you can find this one on Amazon.

[00:35:31] This is called the Quest Study Bible. Now, this Bible is like 15 years old. So maybe this one, they don’t make this one anymore. But actually, I know they do make a version of it. It’s not called the Quest Study Bible anymore, but just look at the NIV Study Bible. And I would start in Matthew.

[00:35:44] That is the very beginning of the New Testament. I would just start in Matthew and read it all the way through. So, unlike other books where you start at the very beginning. You’re going to start about two thirds of the way through in Matthew and just trust me, it’ll make sense. So that would be step one.

[00:35:58] Step two, I would say, you know, obviously you want to get plugged into a local church. That, that’s a lot harder for somebody who doesn’t know anything. So here’s what I would advise is join us at Wealthy Kingdom. So it’s wealthykingdom.Com. Everything’s free. You can be a part of the community and you can get plugged into a Bible study with other entrepreneurs in your area or virtually. So that’s going to be your best place to really build connections because you’re going to also be around other people who understand the actual life that you live right now. And they’re open. We have lots of non believers in our Bible studies who are there to learn, man.

[00:36:34] They’re like, look, I’m here to learn. I don’t know. I don’t believe. I don’t even know what you believe, but I’m here to learn. And so we, we love those types of people. So I would, those would be the two steps I do because I don’t know everybody here listening is listening to different things. So I don’t know what local church you should go to or anything.

[00:36:52] So come join us virtually. And then you’re probably going to meet people in Wealthy Kingdom that are in your area, especially the local Bible study. And they’re going to know what local church for you to go to. 

[00:37:02] Jason: Got it. You know, this is maybe a controversial hot take of, mine But I feel like a lot of people get so caught up in trying even among christians or non christians trying to prove whether the bible and everything in it is factual history or not It’s like facts and data.

[00:37:19] They’re trying to prove it and I think both sides miss sight of the most important elements, which is are there true principles that are applicable? Can you apply these things to your life? Are they useful tools? And I think that’s the real measure of a principle, whether it’s true or not, is you try it out.

[00:37:38] You test this, try this on in your life and see if the fruit is good. See if it gives you positive results. Does it give you positive results to believe these things? Or does it cause, you know, does it take you in the opposite direction? Do you feel like you’re moving towards something higher? Or is it taking you backwards?

[00:37:57] Ryan: Yeah, there’s biblical truth to that. You know, there was a reason Jesus performed miracles, you know, like a lot of people, a lot of people are like, well, why? Right? He could have just said all the things he said, hey, you know, don’t steal. You know, follow the Ten Commandments. Love your neighbor.

[00:38:13] Everybody can agree with those things. But it’s like, yo. I’m going to make this person the lord of my life, which he was asking them to do, to believe that he’s the son of God, to believe and give their entire life to him. It’s like, well, dude, you better show me something else if you want me to commit to that degree.

[00:38:31] And you know, that’s why he performed signs and wonders to show them that, hey, look, I am the one. And You know, it’s true, right? Like, that’s why he did it. And that’s why all of the disciples you know, were killed for preaching it well after he was gone, because they saw it, they believed, and they knew that the reward, you know, was going to be great eternally, right?

[00:38:52] Look, Jesus says it to Doubting Thomas too, when he returns, right? A lot of the disciples believe, they’re like, Oh dude, like he’s back. And then Thomas is like, I ain’t believing until I see him. Until I see the holes in his body. And so Jesus comes back and he’s like, Look, Thomas, feel the hole, right?

[00:39:08] Shows him the hole in his hands. And he’s like, blessed are those who believe without seeing. 

[00:39:12] Their faith is stronger, but still, it’s all good that you needed to see to believe. Like, it’s all good. And so. There are going to be people who listen to this and they’re like, I believe all this makes sense.

[00:39:26] And then there are going to be those who say no, I need to see the fruit. I need to see why I should believe. And in fact, I still believe miracles happen today. I’ve seen them with my own hands. I’ve prayed for miracles that cannot be explained other than they were miraculous. And you know, with that, it’s like both happen.

[00:39:43] Jason: I think that I think if we’re really created in the image of God,. Then I think that is a clue that we might be a lot more powerful than we realize and you know there’s even evidence that the placebo effect is getting stronger as time goes on. So like as they do drug testing and stuff like this drugs have to pass a certain test that they’re stronger than placebo. The challenge is drugs are having a harder and harder time showing that they’re stronger than placebo because the placebo effect is actually getting stronger. And I think that humanity worked our consciousness is raising a bit.

[00:40:19] I think that people are realizing that we are creators, that we are more powerful than we give ourselves credit. And, you know, Jesus says, if you have faith, like a grain of a mustard seed, you could like move a mountain or something. Right. And so I think that I think there is something to, you know, this idea that we can create this positive future or alter our reality or alter things real time, like people’s physical health or blessing people or different things. I do think that miracles can occur and there’s evidence of it happening all the time. And I think in religion, see, I grew up Mormon. And I’m a very ultra conservative.

[00:41:00] I was a Mormon missionary for two years and then eventually left it. I didn’t even try alcohol until I was over 30. And I’m the only one in my family that, that left. I’m the black sheep and I’m the oldest of five boys. So, sorry mom, sorry dad. 

[00:41:14] Ryan: I’m not happy with you. 

[00:41:15] Jason: They still love me, but I think one of the things that I, and I’m grateful for all that I learned, like we, we did, I did a lot of religious study growing up and I was the one that just kept digging until I took my way out of it, I guess.

[00:41:26] Ryan: Mormon apologetics is a tough thing to defend. 

[00:41:30] Jason: Yeah. So I think you know, there’s a lot of people think that they need to sell some sort of gospel or good news of, Jesus or the christian church by convincing people their life is going to suddenly be magical or better and that’s not always true, and I don’t think that’s the whole point is that you don’t magically make everything about your external circumstances in your life better, but I think being more in alignment with god and being more connected allows you this greater strength to weather what’s happening.

[00:42:02] I mean if you look at what happened to Peter or any of the apostles, like they suffered horrible deaths. I don’t know that their life magically became more amazing because they followed Jesus, but they had that conviction and they knew truth. And I think in a lot of instances, becoming Christian or believing in Jesus or following his principles may make your life in some instances, more challenging, you know, maybe there’s more fiery darts thrown at you by the adversary, for example, but I do believe that there’s some sort of there’s some sort of power and confidence that comes with knowing that your personal life and will is in alignment with God wants for you.

[00:42:45] Like you’re following that calling and that knowing within, and there’s a strength that comes from that, that nobody else can shake. It doesn’t matter like what your parents are saying to you. It doesn’t matter what your spouse maybe is concerned about. It doesn’t matter if you know, you’re doing what is right, then you’re willing to just let the consequences follow.

[00:43:03] And that’s different than just looking for this better life or a mansion here on earth instead of a mansion in heaven. 

[00:43:10] Ryan: Yeah, and you know, Jesus said hey you got to pick up your cross and follow me. It’s like picking up your cross literally means dying to your old self and giving your all to Jesus And you know somebody’s like oh, but like I got to say bye and to my dad and I gotta bury and he’s no.

[00:43:27] No, this has nothing to do with your current family. This is about you and me You know, whether or not you’re going to follow. And you know, I’ve met many Mormon, ex Mormons, Jews, Muslims, people who have given their life to Jesus. And you know, it’s tough because there’s so many family dynamics that go on to it.

[00:43:46] And it’s like, it ain’t easy. And I feel for those people, cause that, that’s very hard. But I also am a believer that, you know, through your faith and through, you know, those who make that commitment, they have the chance to impact their families. So much more and they can be sanctified through them.

[00:44:02] Jason: Yeah, I mean I had a meeting with the mastermind this morning and we were talking about distractions And we were all these they’re all men and we’re all sharing like what’s distracting us and what’s holding us you know back from the things we should be doing and you know and I was thinking about you know, just how can I be a better father?

[00:44:21] How can I be a better partner, a better spouse? How can it be a better business leader? And at the stage I’m at now, it’s just more discipline. It’s less distractions. And it’s all like cutting out all of the fat and the little things that are so easily taking us. And that’s kind of what you led us into here in the beginning.

[00:44:39] You know, what do you, what would you say to those that are just, they’re trying to run their business, they’re dealing with a lot of distractions, which is common for entrepreneurs. We see shiny objects everywhere. How do they get focused and how they start, how did they start listening to that inner voice that connects them with the divine so they can start making the right moves?

[00:45:00] Ryan: Well, I think it’s very simple, right? You just make God the focus. You just have to trust that if you make him the focus. Everything else will fall into place. And then it goes back to Matthew 6, 33, seek first the kingdom and his righteousness and everything else will be added to you. And that’s faith.

[00:45:18] That’s faith in a nutshell, because you’ll be like, well, don’t understand the fires that I have, Ryan. You don’t understand the drama and the problems. My kids are doing this, my relationship with my wife sucks. Like I got to focus over there in order to fix. You know, well, before I can go worry about God.

[00:45:35] I mean, that’s like the biggest thing I hear all the time too. It’s like, well, I. Once I get my life right, then I’ll start going to church. I’m like, no, you can’t get your life right. That’s why Jesus paid the price, because you can’t. It’s the same funny thing I hear when people are like- 

[00:45:49] Jason: it’s like saying once I get abs, I’ll stop eating candy bars.

[00:45:53] Ryan: Yeah, well, I was going to use a health example too where I hear this actually from people because I was in sports for so long Hey, I’m going to get in shape first, then I’m going to go get a trainer and start you know, because I’m not ready to go train with them like, that’s too hard. I got to like get in shape first and I’m like, dude.

[00:46:09] No, that’s why you need a trainer like no, And yeah, it’s the same thing with faith. It’s like if you follow god and you seek his ways I mean just like you’ve been saying from a practical standpoint. If you follow what the Bible says, your relationship with your wife will get better. Like, you’re just going to be a better leader, you’re going to serve her, you’re going to be different.

[00:46:27] Your relationship with your kids will get better. The relationship with your employees will get better. The way you act in business will be better. You know? And it doesn’t mean that it’s going to be easy. I didn’t say it was going to be easy. I just said, it’s going to get better. And you know, I’ve had, yeah. And I had, I’ve had so many difficult situations in business, you know, lost millions, investors pissed, customers pissed, lawsuits.

[00:46:53] I’ve dealt with everything you could imagine in business. And guess what? Every time I’ve been able to get through it and it’s because of my faith and I didn’t know how I would get through it. I didn’t know what the outcome would be. I didn’t know how I would solve it. But I can tell you I slept pretty good throughout all of it because I just knew God would take care of it some way somehow.

[00:47:16] Jason: You knew it would be figured out and you felt like you had somebody on your side that’s pretty powerful. 

[00:47:21] Ryan: I mean, God promises to be on my side. 

[00:47:23] Jason: Yeah. 

[00:47:24] Ryan: You know, Romans 8, 28 says that, you know, he works all things for my good, for those who believe. 

[00:47:30] Jason: Even the tough stuff. 

[00:47:32] Ryan: All things, not some things. 

[00:47:34] Jason: Whom God loves, he chastens. Despise not the chastening of the Lord, right? So may not necessarily be easy, but yeah, it’ll be worth it. 

[00:47:41] Ryan: Don’t expect anything to be easy. 

[00:47:43] Jason: Right. I think we go into it, we should expect things to be hard and worth it. And I think when we’re, it’s kind of like the old stoic adage, you know, hard choices, easy life.

[00:47:53] Easy choices, hard life. We all know people that they’re focused on ease. They’re focused on trying to have comfort They’re focused on how do I how do I avoid doing stuff? I just want to relax. I just want my weekend I just want time and I think as i’ve grown into adulthood and you know focus more on stepping more into my masculinity.

[00:48:13] I’ve realized that you know, nobody’s coming to save us, except maybe Jesus, right? Nobody’s coming to do it for us. There’s a level of work that’s expected and we need to get beyond always seeking comfort because comfort is a deceptive and alluring sort of drug and we need to be willing to put in the work put in the effort and focus and put in that discipline and then life gets a lot easier overall Like life gets a lot better overall when we’re disciplined. Disciplined people don’t cheat on their spouses.

[00:48:47] Disciplined people like, you know, take care of their kids and spend time with them on the weekend. Disciplined people you know, focus and take care of their health so they have less health issues. They’re putting their own oxygen mask on first, so to speak, so they can take care of others, right?

[00:49:02] And that’s it. That’s discipline. And I think that’s important. Well, Ryan we’re about out of time. I really appreciate you coming on the show. This has been I think inspiring conversation. It’s got my brain sort of running in a bunch of different directions thinking about, you know, how can I be better and how can I evolve as a human?

[00:49:19] What would you like to say in your final words to those listening to this podcast and maybe how they can get in touch with you or your various businesses. 

[00:49:30] Ryan: Yeah, I think you know, as far as getting in touch with me, that’s easy. You can just go on social media, search Ryan Pineda, wherever.

[00:49:37] So that part’s easy. I would say the final thing to leave him with, I mean, we’ve talked a lot about faith and eternity and everything else. And that’s usually the final thing I leave on podcasts because I don’t depending on where the conversation goes, right? You know, I’ll always draw it back to faith.

[00:49:51] So I would just say that, man, I mean, like, look there’s a common theme for what we’re saying. It’s like, life’s going to be hard one way or the other, you know, you’re going to go through tough times. You are going to have uncertainty. You’re not going to know if things are going to work out or not the way that you’re hoping.

[00:50:08] You know, One thing I know for sure is, and this will apply for both ways, not just faith, but also business and faith. When you start becoming process driven more than results driven, your life changes. Because you’re never going to be up and down with the result. You’re always just trusting the process.

[00:50:28] And so, you know, baseball, we had to learn this every day. It’s like, I don’t know who’s pitching tomorrow. I don’t know. Like, I just got to trust my routine, my process, and then I’m doing the right things every day. And if I follow that, I know I’m going to get the best result that I possibly can get. In the long run, and I think you were referencing that when it comes to, Hey, you know what?

[00:50:46] Even if you don’t believe these biblical principles are going to change your life, that’s a form of trusting the process. And if you do, you know, you’ll end up getting better results just overall, whether you believe or not, and you just follow that process. And then, you know, I would say even to take it a step further, it’s like, man, if you trust that he is the creator of this world and he has promised to take care of you then that’s a process to choose to have faith and trust that’s the case, to trust that his plan is better than your plan. And it’s not easy because we all want control. We all want certainty. That’s, you know, that’s our human nature.

[00:51:21] That’s why we’re trying to get financially free. That’s why we’re trying to you know, get enough cash flow and I teach on these things like I get it. But there’s a better plan. And you know, if you just trust the process every day of following him, he will make your path straight, you know? And so I’ve seen that in my own life.

[00:51:42] I’ll tell you this. I never thought I’d be a podcaster, an events guy, a social media guy. I never thought that was going to be the thing, but. I felt like God was calling me down that path, and here we are. And I don’t know where he’s going to call me the next 10 years. I don’t have a 10 year plan. I don’t have any of that, and I don’t care.

[00:51:59] All I’m trying to do is whatever God’s calling me to do at this moment, and I want to be flexible to his will, and be very careful not to just insert my will. And that’s it, right? 

[00:52:10] Jason: Yeah, appreciate it. You know, appreciate you coming on the show. I think, I agree. I think you know, even if you, For some reason don’t want to be christian you don’t you don’t you’re opposed for some reason.

[00:52:23] Some people are just like opposed to the bible, just look at the bible through the lens of what are the principles that have made this book one of the greatest books of all time? Why has it stood out? Why has it stood the test of time? Why do so many people look to it for wisdom and for insight? There’s so much wisdom in there and if you can at least just be willing to extract wisdom wherever you can find it, then you’re not an idiot And so at least start there, everybody listening, just look for wisdom, be a seeker of wisdom and look for the things that are better and higher.

[00:52:53] And that’s going to eventually lead you to better and higher things and help you to weather the storm. And you can tell Ryan has, you know, he has this confidence that comes from knowing it’s not all reliant on him. He trusts that there’s something greater than him that’s going to give him a source of power or ideas or decision making or guide his paths and to not have that for those of you listening must be terrifying. It must feel a little bit scary to just not have nothing else above you to reach up to. And so there is a god. There’s somebody reach up to, go ahead and test it out.

[00:53:29] My way of aligning towards God is to sit, read things that I feel like lead me closer to something better and higher. That could be scripture, whatever, or to meditate on something, but then to think, how can I align my will with that? What is that voice inside? What is that calling telling me to do and take those actions and do it.

[00:53:47] If you don’t take those actions, listen to it, that voice will get quieter. But if you start to listen to that voice and take those actions, it’s going to get more and more clear to the point where you have that confidence to go out and make decisions. So I think that’s a good ending note here.
