Joining Building and Becoming has been the most impactful step I have taken in my spiritual journey. With daily devotional from Jim Motz and the community it has helped guide me in my faith with Jesus Christ. The bonus is the accountability that Jim holds you too. He is a natural lead from the front leader. He puts in the work and is a man of his word! I believe that building and becoming is meant for everyone! If you are serious about making positive changes in your life, then Building and Becoming is for you. YOU have to do the work but with Jim’s leadership and the community backing you up, all things are possible.

I joined Building and Becoming late last year, hoping to find and focus for myself.
I have to say that it was a great decision and I am no longer hoping as I am doing things to improve my life in so many ways. One of the biggest improvements is my mindset. I am filled with positivity and gratitude, which are truly some foundational necessities to succeed. I have grown in my faith and prayer life as well.

Within the last few weeks, I decided to take a large step forward and have started a program called Deepwater. The Deepwater program is a more focused plan based on Faith Fitness and Dietary Health. It’s been a few weeks so far, and I am amazed at the improvement in all areas. I have lost weight and my clothes are much looser my attitude is so much better that my friends are commenting on how positive I am and how much better I look already.

I will say that this is the most empowering journey I have ever taken and I am so excited to keep moving forward.

In the past I’ve struggled to keep myself accountable and motivated in my goals. It led to me letting myself down over and over again. Being apart of building and becoming has given me a sense of community and belonging. I now have a whole team backing me that is just as excited about my transformation as I am.

My experience with building and becoming has been one of amazing transformation. The fellowship and support offered here are like nothing I’ve ever had before. This group is more like a family who love and take care of each other. I will continue to build and become the person I never thought I could be.

Do not forget man….you set a standard yourself that I sometimes have to make myself rise to as well. There are mornings I decide to sleep in for whatever reason, I read your message, and check what time you sent it. And it gives me a reminder that I too can do better and I have to come back the next day and do just that. So whether you know it or not you’ve held me accountable and never even known about just by your daily actions.

I joined Building & Becoming during a time in life where everything seemed to be falling apart, including my marriage and family.

I knew I couldn’t handle things alone and in my own way anymore. I had reached out to Jim and I knew that having a group of men who were committed to grow in their faith, family, fitness, finances etc. would help me build new “muscles” and become the man that I knew God wanted me to be.

Jim is an excellent coach, friend, confidant, and his passion to see people’s lives transformed is contagious. What inspired me most is how God transformed his own life through hard work, faith, and obedience, and how he leads by example.

I took the 7 Week Suck Cycle Journey and am very happy with my results. Not only was I able to exercise my body daily, but also my spirit and my mind, creating new habits and developing a muscle of consistency that I did not have before in areas of my life. I am looking forward to continued growth and becoming in 2026. Thanks to Jim and the team!

I am being transformed into a better man because of The SuckCycle program. It is administered by Jim Motz who is a living example of what it means to live a life of disciplined commitment to Jesus! The pursuit of personal excellence in all areas of my life; Being the best that I can be with the help of Christ! Through decisively making better choices(non-negotiables) daily I am developing my body, mind, spirit and I am becoming more alive in Christ being expressed through me to others in my life!

Building & Becoming has truly changed the way I approach both my faith and my health. The daily devotionals keep me grounded and focused on God every single day, not just when it’s convenient. They’ve helped me build consistency in my spiritual life and actually apply Scripture to how I live, think, and show up.

The community has been just as impactful. Being surrounded by people who are pursuing growth—spiritually and physically—has kept me encouraged and accountable in ways I didn’t have before. I never feel like I’m doing this alone.

On the fitness side, the training and nutrition framework has given me clarity and direction instead of confusion. I finally understand how to train with purpose, fuel my body well, and stay consistent without extremes. For the first time, my faith, fitness, and daily habits feel aligned.


Building & Becoming isn’t just something I follow—it’s something I live. I’m stronger in my faith, healthier in my body, and more confident in who God is shaping me to be.

-Cheena Cottrell

This transformation didn’t come from shortcuts, trends, or motivation. It came from implementing proven methods, frameworks, and daily habits—over and over again. The same disciplines that rebuilt my body also reshaped my health, my mindset, and the way I lead my life. What I teach inside the Building & Becoming community isn’t theory or recycled information—it’s lived experience. These systems are tried and true because they were tested on me first. And they continue to work because consistency, obedience, and discipline always do.

-Jim Motz

Nothing changed overnight but everything changed because I stayed consistent. This journey wasn’t about shrinking my body; it was about strengthening my mind, my faith, and my follow-through. The physical transformation was the byproduct.
