You’re a Culture-neer — a cultural pioneer who refuses status quo living and chooses legacy leadership.

What does it look like to build a successful business without sacrificing your family, faith, or integrity?

In today’s episode, Terry Gwaltney sits down with David Green, founder of Hobby Lobby, to answer one powerful question:

What does it look like to lead with eternity in mind? David has built a business of massive scale—yet his leadership is anchored in eternal values: stewardship, conviction, generosity, and gospel influence. Together, they talk about how believers should view business, the marketplace, and leadership through a kingdom lens.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why eternity isn’t optional for a believer’s leadership

  • How obedience to God can cost financially (and why it’s still worth it)

  • The shift from owner → steward (Psalm 24:1)

  • Why company culture starts with eternal priorities

  • Why the marketplace is a mission field (not a “less spiritual” assignment)

  • How compromise creeps in—and guardrails to prevent it

  • Redefining success by what lasts: God’s Word + man’s soul

  • Why the church gathers Sunday—but scatters Monday–Friday

If you lead a business, a team, a family, or a ministry—this conversation will challenge you to think bigger than profit and deeper than influence.

Your leadership echoes beyond your life. Lead like eternity is real.

Culture starts at home — and your family is worth building on purpose.

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
