Episode 29: Accidental Philanthropists with Dr. Gerald Stein

from Sharing the Heart of the Matter · host SharingHoTM

In this episode, Wynne Leon is with co-host Vicki Atkinson and they are talking to Dr. Gerald Stein about how a promise he made, and kept, did a whole lot of good. Dr. Stein tells us how the story began – a promise between 10 high school friends in 1963 to meet again on January 1, 2000. And when they kept that promise, it led to the great good luck of becoming accidental philanthropists. We get to hear how the whole story unfolded – how the softball team ended up as a scholarship team. And Dr. Stein’s wonderful conclusion that “if you have enough confidence in who you are, and a door opens, you are more likely to walk through it.” This is a great episode about how the power of friendship can be harnessed to make a difference in the world. This rousing story will have you remembering that one person can indeed make such a difference, especially when we keep our promises. I know you’ll love it.
