Summary

Today's conversation between Chad Kneller, Martevious Young and I is in response to a talk from John Maxwell about lessons from his father Melvin. He truly learned a tremendous amount of the wisdom he teaches and walks in from his father, which makes this legacy series so powerful. Over the next few episodes, we will dive into this series and really look at everything he learned and how we can apply those principles in our own lives to leave an amazing legacy of our own. Here are some of the high points from this third episode: Be intentional, be purposeful and be focused! To whom much is given, much is required. With great power comes great responsibility. Live a life of generosity with your TIME, your TREASURE and your TALENTS. We need to be a river and not a reservoir... are we approaching life with open hands or closed fists? Rivers bring LIFE and reservoirs do not. Give GOD the credit. Acknowledge that every gift you've been given comes from God - he is the source of every good and perfect gift. Understand the relationship between you and the gifts you've received from God. Love and read God's word - it has the power to transform your life!!
