Oscar Banks is a pastor and mindset coach who has spent years helping people renew their minds and return to the heart of Jesus. From leading his church in St. Petersburg to developing affordable housing in his community, he believes real transformation begins when Christ becomes the center.
In this episode of The Rooted Dad Podcast, Logan and Oscar talk about what it means to stay grounded in your faith when the world feels loud, how Jesus meets us in our pain, and why our hardest seasons often become the stories that heal others. They also reflect on mentorship, legacy, and the mindset every dad needs to lead with love and conviction.
Tune in for a hope-filled conversation about faith, resilience, and the power of keeping Jesus at the center of it all.
