The 3rd LevelStory

100 Christian men. One county. One story at a time.

Shawn Powell is sitting down in person with 100 Christian men who lead in Reno County to hear their stories of faith, family, work, and community. When conversation 100 is complete, the project ends.

Every conversation follows the same path

Three parts of a life well lived.

The structure creates room for an honest story without turning the conversation into a script.

Part 1 · Foundation

Faith story

How faith shaped the guest and his marriage, where it started, and where it is now.

Part 2 · Provision

Family and work

His children, his vocation, and what it means to provide beyond a paycheck.

Part 3 · Legacy

Community and next generation

What this community needs and what he wants to leave for his children’s generation.

The purpose

“Real wealth isn’t just what’s in your account. It’s what you build in yourself, what you give your family, and what you leave your community.”

Every story points back home.

Each episode closes by naming one local need, nonprofit, or cause worth supporting. The goal is community and relationships, not audience size.
