Good morning, my friend.

Grab your coffee.

Can I share something that’s been on my heart lately?

I’ve been thinking a lot about legacy.
Not the kind that has your name on a building.
The kind that’s quietly passed from one generation to the next.
Recently, our family has been talking about the future of our ministry.
Not because I’m planning to step away.
Quite the opposite.

But one day…
someone else will carry the baton.
That realization has changed the way I think.
Instead of asking,
“What do I want to build?”
I’ve started asking,
“What do I want to leave behind?”
Those are very different questions.
We’ve spent years writing.
Publishing.
Creating.
Filming.
Learning.
Making mistakes.
Starting over.
Rewriting.
Trying again.
None of those years were wasted.

Now we’re beginning to organize everything in a way that someday someone else can understand it.
Training.
Documenting.
Explaining why we do what we do.
It’s funny…
When we first started, we were just trying to survive.
Now we’re trying to steward what God has entrusted to us.
That feels very different.

✝️ What God Has Been Teaching Me
Paul wrote these words to Timothy:
“The things that you have heard from Me… entrust to faithful people who will be able to teach others also.”
– 2 Timothy 2:2
That verse has taken on new meaning for me.
Paul wasn’t just building churches.
He was preparing people.
He understood that the work of God is never supposed to depend on one person.
It’s meant to continue long after we’re gone.
Whether you’re raising children…
Serving in your church…
Teaching a Bible class…
Or simply encouraging one friend…
We’re all leaving something behind.
The question isn’t whether we’ll leave a legacy.
The question is…
What kind?

♥️ A Little Encouragement for Your Week
Maybe you’re wondering if your everyday faithfulness really matters.
Can I encourage you?
The conversations you have today…
The prayers you pray…
The kindness you show…
The example you set…
Someone is learning from your life, even when you don’t realize it.
Legacy isn’t usually built in one extraordinary moment.
It’s built through thousands of ordinary ones.
I’m praying that when people remember me someday…
they won’t remember my books first.
Or my videos.
Or even this ministry.
I hope they’ll remember that I loved Jesus…
and tried to help others love Him too.
To me…
that’s a legacy worth leaving.
