From luxury real estate to life-saving missions: How Roger Wheeler feeds 30,000 starving souls in Zambia with biblical generosity."

Core Content Summary

Join hosts Monica Hansen and Pastor David Chotka in this powerful conversation with Roger Wheeler, a full-time Century 21 realtor who co-founded "Shoulder to Shoulder" - a transformative mission feeding over 30,000 malnourished people across 125 churches in Zambia.

Discover how Wheeler's eighth-grade daughter's profound insight sparked a decade-long journey from local Native American reservations to international mission work. Learn about his revolutionary "financial unplanning" philosophy that challenges everything Drake University taught him about wealth accumulation, and how he applies the Greek principle "Axios Metanoia" (works worthy of repentance) to modern Christian living.

  • How Paul was the "OG of fundraising" - collecting funds across the Roman Empire
  • The shocking statistic: $8 billion in American donor-advised funds could end world hunger
  • Practical strategies for identifying and sharing your "surplus"
  • The church-based distribution model that ensures 100% of donations reach the hungry
