Faith is not only something we talk about on Sundays. For many believers, it becomes the foundation for everyday decisions, difficult seasons, meaningful work, and the way we serve others.
On Living My Faith with James Fenimore, Hunter Price, CEO Owner of V3: Voice Vision Victory and a pastor in Springfield, Illinois, shares a deeply personal look at what it means to live out faith in real life. His story includes ministry, speaking, faith-inspired content, coaching conversations, and the ongoing challenge of trusting God through anxiety and depression.
Hunter’s journey is a reminder that spiritual growth is not about comparison or perfection. It is about surrender, obedience, community, and choosing each day to walk in the Spirit.
About Hunter Price and V3: Voice Vision Victory
Hunter Price created V3: Voice Vision Victory, a faith-inspired content website featuring blogs and podcasts. He also authored his first book, Care to Compete. In addition to his work through V3, Hunter serves as a pastor at a church in Springfield, Illinois.
His work extends beyond the church setting. Hunter speaks at churches, clinics, and on podcasts, often connecting faith with topics that matter to leaders, coaches, and people looking for practical encouragement.
A Faith Journey Shaped by Obedience
One of the most defining moments in Hunter’s faith journey was leaving a highly successful coaching career to enter the field of ministry. That transition was not simply a career change; it was a step of obedience.
For many people, faith becomes most real when it requires surrender. Hunter’s story reflects the reality that following God can mean walking away from something familiar, successful, or comfortable in order to pursue a deeper calling.
When Calling Requires Courage
Major life transitions are rarely simple. They often come with questions, uncertainty, and sacrifice. But Hunter’s journey shows that faith is not passive. It involves action, trust, and a willingness to follow where God leads.
His move into ministry also shaped the way he now approaches conversations, leadership, and service. Whether he is pastoring, speaking, writing, or working with coaches, faith remains central to his purpose.
Living Faith Daily Is a Choice
As a pastor, Hunter’s faith is part of his everyday work. But he is clear that living out faith is still a daily choice. It does not happen automatically, even for someone in ministry.
He describes the importance of choosing to live in the Spirit in every interaction and every piece of advice offered. Without that intentional choice, it can be easy to become jaded or discouraged.
Faith at Work, Home, and in the Community
Hunter’s daily life includes opportunities to encourage, counsel, and point others toward faith. In his work with coaches, he often finds that conversations may begin with sports but finish with faith.
This is a powerful reminder that ministry can happen in everyday spaces. A conversation does not have to begin as a spiritual discussion to become meaningful. Sometimes, the door opens through shared interests, relationships, and trust.
Finding Strength Through 2 Corinthians 12
When asked what encouragement or scripture has been especially meaningful in this season, Hunter pointed to 2 Corinthians 12. His connection to this passage is deeply personal.
Hunter has been diagnosed with clinical depression and has lived with generalized anxiety disorder. He describes it as the thorn in his side. His life changed when he realized that God may not take it away and that he had to accept that reality.
That acceptance did not mean giving up. Instead, it became part of how God’s glory is shown through his life. Hunter recognizes that he could not do this on his own, and that the ability to keep showing up is evidence of God’s strength.
Weakness Does Not Disqualify You
Many people assume that struggles with mental health, fear, or anxiety make them less useful to God. Hunter’s story points to a different truth: weakness is not the end of the story.
In 2 Corinthians 12, the apostle Paul writes about a thorn in the flesh and learns that God’s grace is sufficient. For Hunter, this passage has become a meaningful reminder that God can work through what feels unresolved.
Faith does not always remove the struggle. Sometimes faith gives us the strength to keep walking with God through it.
Practical Advice for Growing Spiritually
Hunter offers two simple but powerful pieces of advice for anyone who is struggling to live out their faith or looking to grow spiritually.
1. Do Not Compare Your Journey to Others
“Comparison will kill you,” Hunter shared. Spiritual growth is personal. When we constantly measure our faith, progress, calling, or season against someone else’s, we can lose sight of what God is doing in our own lives.
Instead of comparing, Hunter encourages people to focus on their own growth. That means paying attention to obedience, repentance, prayer, service, and the next step God is asking you to take.
2. Surround Yourself with Uplifting Believers
Hunter also emphasizes the importance of community. He notes that you become the average of the people you spend time with.
For someone trying to grow spiritually, relationships matter. Encouraging believers can help strengthen your faith, speak truth when you need it, and remind you that you are not walking alone.
