Founder of Hobby Lobby, David Green, released a new book called The Legacy Life: Leading Your Family to Make a Difference for Eternity, that offers a Biblical framework for building multigenerational impact. In this conversation, hosts, Joey Svendsen and Jack Hoey, Jr. talk with David and co-author, Bill High, about the principles shared in their book, as well as a little about the Hobby Lobby story. From humble beginnings, David set out to be people-oriented in all of his business practices, including being generous with Hobby Lobby’s earnings—giving half to charities and outreaches. David and Bill share what life truly is about—spoiler alert, it's not money.

The Legacy Life presents a paradigm-shifting perspective on living with eternal significance. Rather than accepting the conventional work until retirement approach, Green and High call readers to embrace a biblical, generational mindset that creates lasting impact across multiple generations.

At top of episode, the host crew discuss their current heart postures toward money and share some disagreement about the vegetable, corn.

David Green: Founder/CEO of Hobby Lobby employing 50,000 people at 1,000 stores in 48 states and grosses nearly $8 billion a year.

Pastor DawnCheré Wilkerson faced a long journey of infertility not knowing if or when the journey would end. As she walked through this grueling journey, God showed her the beauty and purpose that can be found in seasons of waiting on him. He taught her that all of life can be viewed as a joyful, soul-deepening, intimacy-building wait. Her book, Slow Burn: The Work and Wonder of the Wait, leads readers through this God-given insight.

With Joey Svendsen and Katie Walters, the three discuss the difficulty of waiting, the beauty of trials, God being all we need, and the wonderment of heaven when we will finally receive the joy of all our needs being met once and for all.

On this episode, Roy Jacques, Chip Judd, and Joey Svendsen discuss their views on the current state of the Church. From rampant unacknowledged hypocrisy to over-zealous political affiliations at the expense of God's Kingdom, the three share whether, at times, they are uncomfortable being associated with the Church. Churches consists of people who hurt people, because humanity is flawed, even in the church. Chip reflects on his decades of ministry, including church consulting and counseling of pastors and church staffs and says that some churches are flawed at a toxic level.

Along the way, the three friends discuss professional athletes' exuberant salaries, Roy's broken heart after sending his two oldest to college, socialism vs. capitalism, and Chip gives an update on his current health—nine months after his double lung transplant.
