About
We all want to live a life that matters--a life of meaning and significance. The problem is, when we think of a life that makes a difference, we think way too small. Our lives can and should make an impact today--and we should also be working toward building a legacy that lasts for generations to come.
Rejecting the current work-hard-then-retire mindset, David Green, founder and CEO of Hobby Lobby, and Bill High call us to a biblical view of ourselves and our families--a generational mindset. With a paradigm-changing perspective, this book helps you
· develop a legacy perspective on your life and family
· articulate and live out your mission and values
· recover from failures and celebrate successes
· tell your stories from generation to generation
It may feel strange at first, but when you shift your mindset to understand your life in generational terms, you'll discover that while you are not the story, you are part of a story that matters for eternity.
Endorsements
"'Legacy isn't what we leave behind, but what we set in motion.' In a me-centered culture, where faith and family take a back seat to financial success and notoriety, this provocative idea changes everything. If you're interested in passing down more than money, not just for your kids but for generations to come, this is the book for you. The powerful, true stories will inspire and empower you to identify and exemplify your mission and values. It's never too late to play your part in God's redemptive story!"
Jim Daly, president, Focus on the Family
"In a world focused on short-term success, my friends David Green and Bill High call us to point our lives heavenward to set in motion a legacy of eternal significance. Like the ripples that emanate from a rock thrown into a pond, our influence for Christ can keep going on and on through our testimony, commitment, and passion for the gospel."
Dr. Robert Jeffress, pastor, First Baptist Dallas; Bible teacher, Pathway to Victory
"The Legacy Life is a practical guide to generational influence. Drawing from his personal journey from humble beginnings, David Green shares how a small loan combined with the legacy of faith he inherited from his parents grew into the founding of Hobby Lobby, which supports countless charities and outreaches. Legacy is far more than money; legacy is a mindset that multiplies. Wherever life finds you, this heartwarming story of the power of belief and family will inspire you."
Lisa Bevere, New York Times bestselling author; cofounder, Messenger International
"The most exciting adventure that is built into our DNA is to discover the purpose that God has deposited in each one of us. I believe that every human being wants to live a life that matters, but our world offers temporary solutions to silence our God-given ache. I used to try to quiet that cry I felt inside, but now I embrace it as sacred space, a place and a calling that only God can fill. You too can live a legacy life. You were made for more."
Sheila Walsh, author and TV host
"The Legacy Life is an inspiring call to live with eternity in mind, reminding us that our greatest impact isn't measured in years but in generations. With deep biblical wisdom and practical guidance, this book challenges us to steward our time, talents, and treasures for God's glory and the good of those who come after us. If you're looking to build a life that truly matters, this book is a must-read."
Jordan Raynor, bestselling author, The Sacredness of Secular Work and Redeeming Your Time
"The Legacy Life is a rallying cry to leaders at any age and any level to make a difference, create an impact, leave a mark, and change the world. This book will wake you up to understand the power of multigenerational impact. David and Bill are inviting all of us as leaders to stretch and expand our view of stewardship that will ripple for hundreds of years."
Brad Lomenick, author, H3 Leadership and The Catalyst Leader; former president, Catalyst
