Don't Shrink Back Ep. 7, Peter Demos, "On the Duty of Christian Civil Disobedience"
My guest, Peter Demos, is a Christian, family man, successful business owner, speaker, and author. His latest book "On the City of Christian Civlil Disobedience" is worth a read. How should christians reposed to cultural changes we are concerned about? How important is voting, staying involved? Prayer is great, but what ELSE should we be doing?
Here's his bio: Peter Demos entered the family restaurant business at age 12 when he started working as a dishwasher in his dad’s Western Sizzlin’ restaurant. From there, his experience in the food industry and serving others gradually grew under the tutelage of his father, who imparted to Peter many aspects of what it takes to run a successful business.
After graduating from high school, Peter earned a B.S. in Sociology from Middle Tennessee State University before studying law at the University of Missouri. He went on to earn his Doctor of Jurisprudence degree, during which he discovered that he could better fulfill his passion for helping people in the food industry.
In 1999, Peter returned to his parents’ family restaurant, Demos’ Restaurant, with the single goal of growing the organization. His experience as a restauranteur grew, and he was given the position of chairman on the Board of Directors for the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce and president of the Tennessee Hospitality Association. Currently, he is the president and CEO of Demos’ Brands and Demos Family Kitchen, owning six restaurant locations across middle Tennessee, including PDK Southern Kitchen and Pantry, and multiple other businesses.
Peter is a highly sought-after leadership source expert and speaker on business, leadership and faith. His latest professional pursuit is the release of his compelling debut book detailing his journey from fear-filled to fearless, “Afraid to Trust.” He has been featured in numerous mainstream and faith-based publications including "The Washington Examiner," "Townhall," "The American Spectator" and "Christian Post." In addition, Peter also serves as an adjunct professor at Lipscomb University where he teaches a class on leadership and management.
Today, Peter and his wife Kristin work closely together in both business and ministry. They are now teaching their two children to also serve God with their lives.
