Karim Baidaoui
Founder | Minister - DOW Disciples of the Way Ministries
The story of Disciples of The Way (DOW) ministry begins with the conversion of Karim Baidaoui from Islam to Christianity. Following his Baptism in 1991, Pastor Karim’s conversion from a slave of Allah into a child of God convinced his heart to serve Christ as Missionary-at-Large to the Muslim community. After his Ordination within the Lutheran Church MissouriSynod in 2005, the ministry of DOW was born. In 2013, this ministry grew and established its own Non-Profit (501c3) under the name Disciples of the Way Ministries (DOW). DOW’s Mission statement is “Reaching, Teaching, Working, and Living among our neighbors and making disciples of the Cross from All Nations.” Matthew 28:19
DOW is a ministry of all nations reaching out to people of all nations -primarily Muslims in the Vickery Meadow community which is home to 35,000+ immigrants. DOW and its Refugee Service Center (RSC) program reach out to the community by becoming neighbors, workers, missionaries and by being disciple-makers. “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.” (2 Timothy 2:2 )

Clint Gresham
Author | Speaker | Former NFL Player
Clint received his bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurial Management from the Neeley School of Business at Texas Christian University. Clint was twice selected by Head Coach Gary Patterson, for the TCU Football leadership council. Later Chancellor Victor Boschini, requested him as the lone representative for the student body on the hiring committee for Former Athletic Director Chris Del Conte.
From 2010-2015, he served as the long snapper for the Seattle Seahawks, playing in 15 playoff games and two Super Bowls (XLVIII & XLIX).
Clint always viewed his time in the National Football League as a platform to push others to discover their inherent greatness. Clint is passionate about imparting the principles of success, grit, and resiliency, which he learned from the years he spent with one of the greatest coaches of all time, Pete Carroll. He believes developing healthy self-esteem is the most critical endeavor in anyone’s life, and wants to help everyone walk in “wholeness," which he defines as “giving up hope for a better past, relinquishing control for a perfect future, and choosing joy and courage right where your feet are.”
When Clint is not traveling as a speaker, he loves being at home in Dallas, TX with his bride Matti, daughter Zoe, and German Shorthair Pointer, Bear.

Becoming: Loving the Process to Wholeness
For most of his life, Clint Gresham, like many if not most of us, experienced the world through the lens of outcomes: Academics. Behavior. Sports victories. Career. Relationships. Material success. The underlying message? When the outcomes are good, you are good. When the outcomes are bad, you are bad.
Becoming unfolds a gripping and inspirational reality check, reminding us all that the point of life is not the destination, but the journey. Each of us is in the process of becoming who God designed us to be. While the journey can be painful, it is also necessary―a process that must be fully embraced if we are to experience wholeness of soul. By fixing your heart on God’s process, the outcomes take care of themselves.
Step back. Breathe. Stay in the moment. And take the long-term approach. Your ups and downs are a beautiful story God is telling through you. We are all Becoming . . . something incredible.

Hate, Inc: How, and why, the press makes us hate one another
As of today, I am renaming the project available online that’s been titled, “The Fairway.” From now on, it’s going to have this title, and subtitle:
HATE INC.
How, and why, the press makes us hate one another
If there’s room at the bottom of the cover – and it is looking more likely now that this will be a physical book at some point – I may add the following:
