Being a Beacon of Light with David Rosal...

Larry Hagner
About this episode

It doesn't matter if you are an everyday dad or like my guest today, who is a celebrity and in the limelight where there's demands on his time, demands on everything. And yet still can carve out time for his wife and for his kids. And when the world is uncertain and we kind of live in some turmoil, we have the opportunity, no matter what level we're operating at to use our gifts and talents to be a shining light and a beacon of light in someone else's darkness.

My guest for this episode, David Rosales is the lead singer of the David Rosales Band. Today we are going to hear his story as a man, husband and father. He tells the story of how he was on top of a building in Los Angeles.

Even when everyone needs something from him as an artist, he still finds time to carve for his family. He shares some wonderful stories of how regardless of what life throws at us we can use our gifts, our strengths and our talents to be a beacon of light and hope and maybe just a bit of an escape.
