Obedience Over Comfort: A Courageous Conversation with JC Risewick
In this episode of the Courageous Crossroads Podcast, Jeff Johnson sits down with JC Risewick for a raw and thoughtful conversation about courage, obedience, identity, and the hard choices that shape a life. JC, a lifelong Iowan and former president of his family’s 50-year-old company, Seneca Companies, shares how the most courageous decision he ever made was choosing to sell the business his father built and stepping into an uncertain new chapter out of obedience to God.
He opens up about navigating identity loss, learning to listen, and following God’s lead even when it runs against comfort or pride, from giving up alcohol to turning down a prestigious leadership role on the Iowa Board of Regents to uprooting his family and moving to Colorado. JC is a devoted husband and father of three, a strategist by profession, an outdoorsman at heart, and a man grounded in faith who is committed to serving his family, his community, and the call he believes God places on his life.
