Be Rich 2025: A Conversation with Bruce Deel // Andy Stanley and Bruce Deel

Our biology and culture push us toward impatience, but God calls us to trust that what he’s doing in us is worth the wait.

Andy Stanley’s conversation with Bruce Deel highlights the inspiring work of City of Refuge, a Be Rich partner dedicated to moving people from crisis to independence.

Not everyone will have the opportunity to be famous, but everyone has the opportunity to be great.

Family can be both the most rewarding and most challenging part of life. The challenge is accepting the messy “real” while still aiming for God’s “ideal.”

People miss or dismiss Jesus sometimes, but when they do it’s usually for an unnecessary reason.

We don’t miss out in life because opportunities aren’t there—we miss out because we let deception, distraction, or disobedience rob us of them.

Life is better connected—because spiritual growth, care, and accountability happen in relationships, not in rows.

Worship isn't just for the mountaintop—it's a lifeline in the valley. Even in your most painful, confusing moments, you can choose to praise God and experience his goodness.

If you’re curious, cautious, or somewhere in between, the Spirit invites you to lean in, let go, and be led.

When we choose to fight our battles on our knees, we surrender control and invite God to do what only he can do.
