What is one thing that you can do today to start your impact on God’s Kingdom?

In this episode, Jeff and Todd discuss:

• Surrendering your life to Jesus.
• Seizing the opportunities God provides.
• Trusting in God, not the resources of the world.
• Seeing God’s picture as greater than what we can dream.
• Taking the chance to just start.

Key Takeaways:

• Don’t be afraid to live your faith out loud. You never know who is watching and who is being impacted.
• God is enough. You don’t have to know every verse of scripture or have all the answers. He is enough.
• Don’t get so stuck in your own ideas that you stop listening to God’s voice.
• God will expand our footprint as we scatter seeds and trust in Him during times of transition.

"I think we overthink transitions sometimes as if God doesn't know what's coming. And in my case, He not only knew, but He confirmed it in a way that brought a lot of peace." — Todd Stewart

About Todd Stewart: Todd Stewart is first and foremost a follower of Christ, one who seeks to live out kingdom principles and pursue kingdom growth on a daily basis.

Beginning as a forklift operator and later becoming CEO of Gulf Winds, he charted an unusual course for the company: faith first, and profit followed. Todd graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a bachelor’s degree in marketing in 1996 before joining his father in the bold logistics venture of Gulf Winds. His wife, Nikki, has adventured side by side with him through his rise to CEO; the raising of their two beautiful children, Lexi and Lane; and his travels across the globe, sharing the gospel of Christ with family, friends, and colleagues-and with those hungry to hear.

Through the years, Todd has been honored by C12 with the Hero Award and by International Cooperating Ministries with the Rock Award. Todd personally lived the Gulf Winds story as a son, an employee, the CEO, and finally through the sale of the business. As he dared to run the family company with the mission of impacting eternity and a determination to put God first in it all, he saw firsthand the incredible things God would do with a business devoted to Him.
