“We’ve set out to work with organizations that directly tell people about Christ, from global ministries such as Every Home for Christ, to our local rescue mission. In this way, we hope to keep Hobby Lobby on track as God’s company, not ours. We want the company to continue for decades, even centuries, as an ongoing source of financial fuel for God’s work around the world…
I believe my responsibility to handle the company’s assets is directly tied to God’s endeavors in the world. He has asked folks like you and me to think like God thinks about resources so He can advance His priorities. Through the efforts of the company God has allowed us to build, I want as many people as possible to know Christ as Savior.”
David Green in “The Purpose of a Merchant” as recounted by William High in The Generosity Bet: Secrets of Risk, Reward, and Real Joy (Shippensburg, PA: Destiny, 2014) 145-146.
Sammy and I are fly fishing with Bryan and Zac Chrisman today. Bryan oversees the work of National Christian Foundation Colorado. After I posted a quote from this book, The Generosity Bet, about a week ago, Bryan told me he has extra copies of it that he’d love to share freely with Meditations readers. It’s a great book filled with inspiring stories! To get your free copy of The Generosity Bet while supplies last, email Bryan at bchrisman@nationalchristian.com today.
