Summary

Culture fixates on the externals, but it’s what’s going on inside that will elevate (or derail) your life. While restoring his 1978 Jeep CJ-7, BT took apart the engine, only to discover that things inside were not as good as they appeared. Connecting this physical reality to the spiritual, he shares 7 ancient practices proven to move your life forward. You don’t need a shiny coat of paint if your engine is gunked up. Instead, focus on improving the internals, and everything else will fall into place.

For the month of July, we’re reliving Brian’s 3-year Jeep restoration project, as chronicled on his YouTube show Garage Bible Study. With over 30 episodes dedicated to restoring his 1978 Jeep CJ-7, BT draws a straight line from physical work to spiritual principles. Track along with the entire project on YouTube, here.
