Unknowns Rising with Arturo Serna

07/15/2026

I am so grateful for the opportunity to sit down with the team at the iWork4Him Podcast to share some of the heart behind "Unknowns Rising."

There is a powerful theme throughout Scripture: God consistently chooses the unexpected—the Davids, the Esthers, and the Josephs—to accomplish His biggest purposes. It makes you wonder: what if He is doing the exact same thing right now by preparing the leaders the world hasn’t noticed yet?

In this episode, we dove deep into a vision for a new generation of leaders who aren't just chasing wealth or influence, but are learning to steward both for God’s glory. We explored everything from kingdom-minded leadership to navigating the future of AI, always returning to the truth that discipleship must come before influence.

My favorite takeaway from the conversation? God isn't looking for people who are merely successful; He’s looking for people He can trust. A Davidic people after His own heart.

If you’re leading a business or simply asking God what He’s preparing you for next, I’d love for you to listen in. You can grab your copy of the book and dive deeper into the story at [unknownsrising.com](https://unknownsrising.com).

A huge thanks to our hosts for such a grounded, meaningful conversation!

What if God is preparing leaders the world hasn't noticed yet?

Throughout Scripture, God consistently chose the unexpected - David, Esther, Joseph - to accomplish extraordinary kingdom purposes. Could He be doing the same today?

In our latest episode of iWork4Him, Art Serna, author of Unknowns Rising with Arturo Serna , shares a compelling vision of a new generation of leaders who won't simply pursue wealth or influence, but will steward both for God's glory. The conversation explores faithful stewardship, kingdom-minded leadership, the opportunities and challenges of AI, and why discipleship must come before influence.

One of the best takeaways: God isn't looking for people who are merely successful - He's looking for people He can trust.

Whether you're leading a business, serving in your workplace, or simply asking God what He's preparing you for next, this episode will challenge you to think bigger about His kingdom and your role in it!

A new breed of leader is rising. 🚀

The "Unknowns" aren't defined by their egos, but by the weight of the problems they choose to solve.

In this snippet from the upcoming Unknowns Rising series, Art Serna explains why getting "in the sandbox" is the only way to align your work with your why.

Full episode later this summer.

Sometimes one conversation opens the door to many more.

I recently joined Rashad Woods on the TRON podcast, and we explored leadership, AI, purpose, and why I believe we're witnessing the rise of a new generation of builders.

People who may not be famous.

People who may not have all the resources.

But people who are willing to solve meaningful problems.

Those are the "Unknowns" I write about.

I'm thankful to Rashad for creating conversations that matter and for giving me the opportunity to share this message.

If you know someone who is building something bigger than themselves, would you share this episode with them?

And if the conversation resonates with you, I'd appreciate your help by liking, sharing, and commenting so more people can discover Rashad's podcast and this growing community.

Thank you for helping spread hope and possibility.

This is my friend Robert. A fellow author, builder, and world traveler 🌍. It was great to visit today, share our hearts for blessing humanity, and building something of lasting value that outlives us.

I believe he is RISING now in response to the global phenomenon I wrote about in "the unknowns rising" book. It's so cool to find synergy and frequency coherence with another fellow human, especially in the AI age.

We look forward to traveling to Boston this summer on the journey to build "what's next." C'mon somebody! 🙌

What if being "unknown" isn't a curse, but groundbreaking training? 🔥

I sat down with on the What If It Did Work? Podcast and we went deep on the season nobody talks about, the grind before the glory.

🎙️ "I’m a NEW man now, and I’m grateful for that moment."

This conversation hit differently. We talked about what happens when the title disappears, when the system overlooks you — and why THAT season is what shapes real leaders.
