We had the good fortune of connecting with Byron Ford and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Byron, what do you attribute your success to?
God is the most important. Everything we do is Faith based. Things are only done when they are Holy Spirit led. With everything we do we want it to glorify God and he is constantly doing work through us through music and apparel.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I do things the way I do them because I am me. I am fearfully and wonderfully made so if I’m doing something other than doing what I was created to do or trying to be someone I was not created to be then I’m telling God that he didn’t create me right. So me being me and everyone else being who they are is what sets me apart because I’ve already been created differently. I’m exciting about everything everyday because everyday is the best day ever. I am where I am today because of Faith and family. God is my ultimate source and provider so he is over it all which is how I also overcome challenges. There is nothing he can’t do except go against his word and his word tells me who I am and tells me that he works everything out for my good. It’s easy when you have Him because He has it all figured out. I want the world to know the name of Jesus and see how he uses me for his glory and I’ve learned that all things are really easy when you do it God’s way.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
That’s would probably be up to them really but we can go eat wherever they like and whatever depending on the person. There are all kinds of places around though. We can stay at the Coolness Palace and do some stuff here, we can play some sports and workout. Just depending on the person and what they would like to do, there are plenty of options.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
God, family, and all of the places I’ve been. I listen to people and learn a lot about different topics. My ultimate source is God and his word. I grow and learn everyday because of it. So this is a shoutout to anyone I’ve ever talked to or seen and learned something from, my childhood, to all my classmates from school, college, high school, Jr. High etc…
