In this deep and authentic episode of BUILD, Stephen Scoggins sits down with singer-songwriter and speaker Chris Hendricks for an unforgettable conversation on faith, purpose, vulnerability, and the power of community through music.
Chris opens up about living with cerebral palsy, rediscovering his calling, and building a music movement centered around authenticity and impact — not fame or algorithms. Together, Stephen and Chris explore what it means to turn affliction into artistry and pain into purpose.
From battling cerebral palsy to building Perfectly Afflicted and launching the Be Yourself movement, Chris's story is a powerful reminder that your scars are not signs of weakness — they're the evidence of your strength.
We cover:
-
Music is ministry — art becomes powerful when it serves.
-
Your difference is your advantage.
-
Disability is not limitation — it's adaptation and empathy in motion.
-
The future of music is community-powered and purpose-driven.
Chris also treats us to 2 amazing songs so tune in and get inspired!

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
