No bank account. No plan. No way out. So how did he get here? It wasn't hustle. It wasn't talent. It wasn't connections. It was something most people aren't willing to do — and in this message, he breaks down exactly what it cost him, why God required it, and why the same thing is required of you. The formula has been in John 3:16 the whole time. Most people read it for comfort. ET reads it as a blueprint. 📖 SERMON: ET Was Homeless at 16 — Here's What He Had to Give Up to Get Here 🎙️ Speaker: Eric Thomas (ET The Hip Hop Preacher) 🏛️ Church: A Place of Change Ministry (APOC) — Grand Ledge, MI ───────────────────────────── 📲 TAKE THE NEXT STEP ───────────────────────────── 🙏 Give & Support APOC: https://apocministry.org 📖 Sermon Notes: https://apocministry.org 🎧 APOC Podcast: https://apocministry.org ✉️ Join a Growth Group: https://apocministry.org ▶️ Subscribe for weekly messages: https://www.youtube.com/@APOCMinistry?sub_confirmation=1 ───────────────────────────── 🔥 ABOUT ERIC THOMAS — ET THE HIP HOP PREACHER ───────────────────────────── Eric Thomas is a world-renowned motivational speaker, pastor, author, and educator who went from high school dropout and homeless teen to earning his PhD and becoming one of the most sought-after voices in personal development.
