At SheepFeast, our heartbeat is to build communities of faith strengthened by both technology andtruth. In our latest Corral Call, hosted by Dr. Je in the absence of our founder Mark, we were deeplyhonored to welcome a truly remarkable guest Frank Sinclair, founder of Dream Again BusinessConsulting, keynote speaker, and living testimony of God's redemptive power.What unfolded during this session was nothing short of profound: a raw, unfiltered conversationabout overcoming discouragement, reclaiming hope, and recognizing God's hand in the midst ofbrokenness. From Poverty to Purpose: Frank's Remarkable Journey Frank's story begins in the rural South during the era of segregation. Raised in North Carolina byparents who had only completed elementary school, Frank worked as a sharecropper and endureda culture marred by normalized violence and deep poverty. Yet, even in that soil of hardship, seedsof purpose were quietly being planted.Despite never stepping into a church during his youth, Frank became an outstanding student. Butwith no mentors guiding him toward higher education, he joined the Air Force at 18, seeking escapeand opportunity.It was in the military, a place where he first experienced racial inclusion and mentorship, that Frank'sworld began to shift. He earned a degree from the University of Maryland, rapidly climbed the ranks,and began building a future… until the voices in his head started whispering a different story."You're a fraud. You don't deserve this."The voices of discouragement that led to Frank's unraveling.These lies led Frank down a dark spiral of self-doubt, alcohol abuse, and ultimately homelessness.The very success he had built crumbled, and he found himself sleeping under a bush in ColoradoSprings, forgotten by society but not by God. A Divine Appointment in the Park Enter Richard Brooks, a man who chose compassion over judgment. He noticed Frank sleeping inthe park and asked to hear his story. That moment turned into a divine encounter. Richard prayedwith Frank, welcomed him into his home, and led him to Christ.This act of radical love rekindled a flicker of hope in Frank's heart. The next day, he found himself inchurch, surrounded by strangers who saw his worth before knowing his name."Community created hope again for me."-Frank Sinclair Healing, Falling, and Healing Again Frank's journey didn't smooth out overnight. After reentering the workforce and later becoming apastor, unresolved internal wounds surfaced again. Despite his gifts and passion for people,character gaps led him into an affair, the loss of his church, and almost his marriage.But God's grace continued to pursue him.Today, Frank is a leadership coach, speaker, and author whose mission is to help others findhealing and purpose. Through Dream Again Business Consulting and The Be Encouraged Show, hespreads messages of resilience and hope to tens of thousands globally.What Is the Bridge from Discouragement to Hope?During the session, Frank introduced a powerful visual: the space between expectation and reality,what he calls the "anxiety space." It's in this tension that discouragement festers. The solution? Hope. "Hope is what propels everything forward. Without it, neither IQ nor EQ can rise."-Frank SinclairFrank emphasized that every person is inherently valuable not because of what they do, butbecause of who they are. With over 8 billion people on Earth, there's still only one you. That scarcityis proof of your worth. Lessons We Can All Take Away Pain isn't pointless - Frank reminds us that purpose is often born in pain. Comparison is a thief - Instead of comparing, seek God's unique path for you. Transparency heals - Sharing your story opens the door for transformation in others. You need community - God often uses others to usher us into breakthrough. We never arrive - Even at 68, Frank admits he's still learning, growing, and leaning on God.The 2,000 Cubit Rule: Making Space for GodIn the closing moments of the call, Frank shared that every major breakthrough in his life requiredone thing: making room for God. Whether writing his first book, rebuilding his life, or launching abusiness, it all stemmed from surrender."I don't speak from arrival. None of us have arrived. We're not home yet."-Frank SinclairStay Connected with FrankWebsite: dreamagainllc.comBe Encouraged Show: beencouraged.netInstagram Live (International Interviews): DM Frank or email at frank@dreamagainllc.comFinal EncouragementWhether you're in the valley of discouragement or simply navigating life's complexities, Frank's storyis a reminder that your story isn't over.
