Imagine being adopted as a baby and growing up to co-found a groundbreaking app that brings people closer to their faith. That's the story of Matthew Potter, the guest on this episode of 'Anchored by the Sword'. Hosted by Gina Fox, this episode dives into Matthew's journey from his early days in a loving adoptive family to his pivotal role in creating Pray.com, the world’s leading app for daily prayer and faith-based audio content.
Matthew's life has been anything but ordinary. Adopted into a family through what he believes was divine intervention, his path led him to become a tech innovator with a mission. His encounter with Steve Gatena at a coffee shop in Santa Monica was the spark that ignited Pray.com, especially after Steve's tragic loss of a friend in a plane crash. Their conversation turned into a mission to help others find solace and strength through prayer and community.
Through Pray.com, Matthew has created a digital sanctuary offering daily devotionals, bedtime Bible stories for kids, and even prayer meditations designed to help manage stress and anxiety. His story isn't just about building an app; it's about using technology to touch lives and foster spiritual growth. One of the most touching parts of this episode is how Matthew finds guidance in Ephesians 1:5, which reminds him that his journey is part of a divine plan.
He encourages listeners to stay focused on their path, even when it gets tough, and to find joy in the journey itself. This episode is perfect for anyone looking for inspiration and proof that faith and perseverance can lead to extraordinary outcomes.
