Legacy Is Not After Death — It’s How You Show Up Today with Mike Patterson

Michael Diamond is joined by returning guest and IgKnight Brotherhood leader Mike Patterson to explore the essence of kingship through the lens of legacy and blessing. Mike opens up about growing up without affirmation, and how that void became the spark for his leadership, service, and purpose. They break down the four pillars of kingship — sovereignty, order, blessing, and legacy — and dive deep into what it means to serve from a place of maturity, stewardship, and alignment. This is a must-listen for any man ready to step into his next chapter with integrity and intention.
