Across the campus of Grove City College, many students can be seen wearing apparel from a popular Christian clothing company called Elevated Faith. Josh Gander is the entrepreneurial mind behind the company. In high school, Gander started with managing marketing campaigns for over 25 brands. The knowledge he obtained through his experiences helped him during his startup in 2015. The jewelry/apparel line would exponentially grow in the next few years. Gander explains, “My real passion is sharing the Gospel and making disciples. That’s what drives me.” Gander has also made mention of some struggles he has endured in the past and how those trials have helped him relate to others with those same difficulties. Through it all, Gander has persisted to serve God and his mission.
In the Elevated Faith website, a timeline can be found that lists all of the significant, pivotal moments in the brand’s progression. Time and determination was necessary for these events to have occurred. Clearly, Gander has something all entrepreneurs should have to be great: a drive. He wanted to reach as many people as possible. Success doesn’t settle, and Gander hasn’t either.
I love this, he clearly had a calling on his life that he was being prepared for during his high school years. Also I really like that you say that he is someone that has gone through many trials and still persisted. he had a vision but most of all he had drive. because a vision without drive is as good as no vision at all.
