Meet Clive Gray, a powerful story teller who speaks from his decades of international service. You’ll hear about freedom found in surrender, living authentic, and the incredible impact a life lived authentically can have on the world.

Originally from Northern Ireland, Clive spent 15 years growing up in Ghana and Nigeria. He later married Kathryn whom he met in Florida. Clive dreamt of becoming a missionary pilot. He worked his way from an aircraft mechanic to becoming a captain of an $8 million private corporate jet. But at 37 years old, Clive was drawn to surrender his career and lifestyle to serve internationally. For 10 years he and his family served in Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, before taking on a new journey.

Clive has three grown children with 2 grandchildren and 2 more on the way! He and Kathryn currently live in Bali, teaching college students English and helping them answer some of life’s biggest questions. 

A “third culture kid,” Clive finds himself most at ease in a mix of cultures. In this episode he shares his journey towards his royal identity and challenges us all to yield to God.
