Why I Won’t Give Up.
A visual devotional for builders, creatives, and entrepreneurs who are still here—even when it doesn’t make sense on paper. Faith, honesty, and strategy in one stream.
Hosted by Isaiah Markel Lesley • Filmed in Chicago • Streaming via Libsyn and across social.
A Room For The Ones Who Kept Going.
WIWGU was born in the tension between vision and reality—when the calling feels loud but the circumstances feel loud too. It’s a space to say the quiet parts out loud, name the fear, and still choose faith and forward motion.
Each episode moves like a conversation, a prayer, and a strategy session in one. We talk about housing, money, identity, creativity, and calling like they belong in the same sentence—because they do in real life.
Who It’s For
• Builders who feel called to more—business, ministry, media, or all three.
• Creatives trying to honor their art and their bills at the same time.
• People who love God but also love strategy, spreadsheets, and soft life.
If you’ve ever whispered “I can’t keep doing this” and still showed up the next day, you’re in the right place.
Episodes & Declarations.
Think of each episode as a chapter in the same story: you deciding not to fold. You can move in order or jump right to the one that sounds like the day you’re having.
Ground Floor — Morning Declarations
Morning declarations for builders. This is the foundation — your faith spoken aloud before the day tries to tell you who you are.
Faith Over Feelings
When it doesn’t look like it’s working. Learning to hold faith when sight is shaky, and choosing belief over the story your emotions are telling.
Walk Like It’s Already Yours
Anxiety vs fear, the power of posture, and walking with spiritual authority—even when the paperwork, followers, or numbers haven’t caught up yet.
Build While It’s Unfinished
Faith in progress. Building when nothing looks ready, trusting the blueprint, and letting yourself take messy, obedient steps.
Wait Like It’s On The Way
Faith in the in-between. Sitting in divine timing when you can’t see the road, and learning to rest without quitting.
Why I Won’t Give Up
The declaration. Prophetic language, scripture, and the faith to not fold—even when your history, your numbers, or your feelings try to argue otherwise.
