Becoming a Family of Kingdom-Led Generosity, with Hobby Lobby’s Mart Green
from The Missional Leader · host Rob Hoskins & OneHope
Mart Green, Missouri-born heir to the Hobby Lobby legacy and founder of Mardel Christian & Education, sits down with Rob on today’s episode of The Missional Leader to unpack the principles behind his family’s extraordinary generosity. From monthly "marble-votes” and the 6 T’s of giving to launching illumiNations—an inter-ministry partnership focused on eradicating Bible poverty—the conversation centers on values-driven impact. Mart also reflects on his grandmother's sacrificial giving and the 1998 trip to Guatemala that ignited both his personal relationship with Jesus and a global effort towards Bible translation. This conversation delivers tangible insights for leaders eager to cultivate generosity in heart and action!
