  • Ray Chung, Leadership Consultant, on Giving What You Can’t Get Back (Ep. 167)

    Ray Chung, Leadership Consultant, on Giving What You Can’t Get Back (Ep. 167)
    Dec 1 2025
    Ray Chung grew up in a faithful Christian home in Malaysia, watching both sides of his family run businesses that shaped the fabric of their communities. Even as a kid, he sensed that business carried real power, but it wasn’t until his own encounter with deeper faith that he began wrestling with how work, calling, and impact could fit together. College only fanned that flame, awakening a vision for business as a living witness to the Gospel. Years later, Ray would spend significant time with HOPE International, where a healthy, Christ-centered culture left a lasting mark on him. For more than twenty years, he has been helping leaders and teams reorient their hearts toward the way of Jesus. Now a senior consultant with Rising Sun Consultants, Ray walks alongside organizations as they build cultures formed by servant leadership and spiritual maturity. Then in 2021, Ray faced a radically personal invitation to generosity when he sensed God asking him to give one of his kidneys. His story is full of wisdom on surrender, Christlike culture, and what it means to faithfully steward the life God has given you. Major Topics Include: The theology of workAn example of a healthy organizational cultureWhy an organization’s culture is importantWords of wisdom about the non-profit modelAssessing an organization’s board, leadership, and financialsThe five elements of servant-leadershipPrioritizing intimacy with God as a busy leaderPractical tips for spiritual restBeing called to give his kidneyStewarding your story, experience, and relationships in a way the points others to Jesus QUOTES TO REMEMBER “Work is a channel of grace to display the glory of God in meeting needs, ours and our neighbors, as we generate resources that can be shared in the redemptive work of the Gospel.”“Business can be a powerful force for God’s transformation”“God has been at work in these communities long before we show up.”“Organizational culture is really hard to fake long term.”“Culture requires intentionality and accountability.”“Do I believe that the more I work, the more I can advance the mission? Or do I really think that God is at work here?”“Sometimes we need to remember how to be a human being rather than a human doing. I try to give myself permission to be about more than work.”“I used to believe the lie that I am what I perform. But I’m learning to believe the truth that I am loved by the Creator and that alone is enough.”“Our life is not our own when we are surrendered to God.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Hope International (see our interview with founder, Jeff Rutt or CEO, Peter Greer)Jesse Casler (see our past interview here)Lead with Prayer by Ryan Skoog, Peter Greer, and Cameron Doolittle (see our interview with the authors here)Practicing the Way by John Mark ComerThe Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark ComerLectio 365 AppCaleb Breakey, founder of Renown Publishing (see our past interview here)Kate Gardner, co-host of the Ascendants Podcast and co-founder of Magnify (see our past interview here)Alan Barnhart (see our past interview here)Julie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (see our past interview here)Dana and Bill Wichterman (see our past interview here)The Finish Line Community Facebook GroupThe Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Psalm 46:10 | Be Still Be still, and know that I am God.

  • Christin Fejervary, VP at NCF, on Trends Among Next Generation Givers (Ep. 166)

    Christin Fejervary, VP at NCF, on Trends Among Next Generation Givers (Ep. 166)
    Nov 24 2025
    Christin Fejervary serves at the National Christian Foundation, where she helps understand generous Christians and the patterns shaping their stewardship. Coming from a background in research before joining NCF, Christin has helped execute numerous large studies which have helped shape the current understanding of Christian givers. This past year, Christin helped lead NCF in some of the most comprehensive research on millennial Christians through the NextGen Stewardship Study, a comprehensive study focused on how young Christians, particularly Millennials and Gen Z, approach wealth and generosity. Christin explains the enormity of the Great Wealth Transfer, projected at $124 trillion to be passed on to these generations by 2048, and the need to understand their unique characteristics and motivations. Her work highlights how agency, shared family values, and hands-on involvement are shaping this rising generation, as well as the unique opportunities emerging as women inherit a growing share of global wealth. She also describes the practical ways families can cultivate unity through generosity and why younger Christians are eager to bring their whole lives, not just their finances, into God’s work. Whether you are a next generation giver or are navigating how to enable the next generation yourself, you’ll find this episode packed with insight. Major Topics Include: How agency shapes stewardship and spiritual growthDifferences between wealth creators, inheritors, and hybridsGenerational contrasts in trust, involvement, and giving patternsThe rising influence and needs of next-gen womenFamily unity formed through shared passions and givingTips for preparing for the Great Wealth Transfer wiselyPracticing stewardship through small, hands-on decisionsUnlocking whole-life generosity beyond liquid assetsAdvice for organizations who are trying to engage multiple generationsGod’s invitation to women in stewardship QUOTES TO REMEMBER “I was learning how to pursue a relationship with Jesus in the everyday. It wasn’t just about going to church on Sundays. It was really about bringing Jesus into every part of my life.”“In my 20s, when I started to understand this relationship with Jesus, it was something where I could actually have conversations with Jesus and ask for help.”“God just showed up. He provided so much in those early years when we didn’t feel like we had much money.”“Faith is the guiding principle in stewarding wealth for all generations.”“The attribute that was most correlated to positivity about wealth was seeing it as responsibility, that it’s about God’s work in the world and joining God’s work in the world.”“Taking action helps your faith. It helps you grow closer to your family. It helps you grow closer to your purpose.”“Women at large and the cohort of next-gen women are more likely to be collaborative, they’re more likely to do giving circles, and they’re looking for a journey more than a transaction.”“Women and mothers are the biggest influences of generosity in the home.”“Women, especially women inheritors, struggle to find their voice. They don’t feel like they have a voice at the table of wealth transfer and those conversations.”“Younger generations want to see the data. They want to see the impact and the numbers. They want to get personally involved because they feel they can make the difference.”“We’re seeing more and more people give from the ninety percent of their wealth, not just the ten percent they hold in liquid assets.”“I think God is showing up in tangible ways and urging people to give from all of their wealth and not just their liquid assets.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills)The NCF Next Gen Stewardship StudyJulie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (see our past interview here)Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounders Todd Harper and David Wills and CEO, April Chapman)Impact Foundation (see our interview with Founder, Aimee Minnich)The Millennial Impact ReportLilly Family School of Philanthropy – Lake Institute on Faith & GivingThe Finish Line Community Facebook GroupThe Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Luke 21:1–4 | The Widow’s Offering Luke 8:1–3 | Women Supporting Jesus’s Ministry WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

  • Rick Allen, CEO/President MedSend, on Training Native Physicians to Advance the Gospel (Ep. 165)

    Rick Allen, CEO/President MedSend, on Training Native Physicians to Advance the Gospel (Ep. 165)
    Nov 17 2025

    Rick Allen was raised in an Irish-Catholic family, but he made his profession of faith some time after graduating college. From there, his journey of faith and his career path progressed side-by-side. Over time, Rick went from volunteering at church to pastoring a church plant, and from software salesman to CEO of a development company. Then with his ministry experience and leadership skills, Rick transitioned to become president and CEO of MedSend, an organization that has mobilized over 750 Christ-following, disciple-making healthcare professionals into 103 nations.

    MedSend doesn’t just send doctors overseas, it helps train native physicians to care and witness within their own communities. Under Rick’s leadership, MedSend’s National Scholars Pathway is equipping African, Asian, and Middle Eastern doctors with advanced medical and biblical training so that they can heal physically and introduce people to Jesus right where they live. Rick is passionate about seeing nations transformed with the love of God through well-equipped, Christ-following medical professionals. Millions of lives have already been touched, and MedSend has a vision to reach millions more with fully equipped Christ-centered hospital systems and networks. If you want to learn how faith, medicine, and missions can fuse in sustainable ways, this episode is for you.

    Major Topics Include:

    • Learning to trust God when you can’t see what’s ahead
    • The desperate need for well-trained health care professionals globally
    • Raising up medical professionals to minister to their own people
    • ROI of investing in a national missionary physician
    • Training medical professionals to share the gospel and disciple others
    • Extending impact through partnership
    • Helping medical missionaries care for themselves through the longevity program
    • MedSend’s long-term goal to transform nations through hospital systems and networks
    QUOTES TO REMEMBER
    • “And I knew immediately that I wasn’t trusting God.”
    • “What does it look like for a Christ-following man to trust and surrender?”
    • “I got to see God at work across the table and across the world, and it transformed my understanding of who God is.”
    • “If you approach God with an open mind and and open heart and say, ‘if you’re real, show me,’ God will show up every time.”
    • “These individuals are taking the love of Christ and a vision for compassionate care into their own healthcare systems and transforming them in the love of Christ.”
    • “We anticipate that an individual physician will touch about 100,000 lives during their career. So we’re training up people that will bless and share the knowledge of Christ with 100,000 people in a lifetime. That level of investment pays off over decades.”
    • “This is not about building healthcare capacity. This is about building Christ-followers who see healthcare as a means to share the love of Jesus Christ.”

  • Jessica Ullrich, from Generous Church, on the Universality of Open-Handed Giving Across Cultures (Ep. 164)

    Jessica Ullrich, from Generous Church, on the Universality of Open-Handed Giving Across Cultures (Ep. 164)
    Nov 10 2025

    Jessica Ullrich grew up watching her parents live open-handedly, their home and resources always available for God’s purposes. Those early lessons in faith and giving deepened during her college years on the mission field, where she saw how generosity could open doors for the Gospel in ways words alone could not. Though she began her career in social work, Jessica soon felt God redirecting her toward the place where ministry and organizational leadership meet, preparing her to guide others in generosity from a broader perspective.

    Now, as Director of Programs with Generous Church, Jessica helps disciple-making networks around the world integrate generosity into their core training. Drawing on her cross-cultural experience and administrative insight, she equips leaders to tell stories of giving that fit their people’s rhythms and languages. Her work has sparked movements where generosity becomes both a testimony and a tool for transformation.

    Jessica’s journey offers grounded insight for those discerning how to lead others in generosity that reflects God’s heart and multiplies Kingdom impact.

    Major Topics Include:

    • How Stations of Generosity works for oratory cultures
    • Similarities and differences between Stations and Generosity Design Lab
    • Identifying people groups that would be a right fit for Stations
    • Memorable stories of positive impact in the Field
    • Salvations through simple generosity
    • The challenge of generosity discipleship across cultures

    • An invitation to simple generosity
    QUOTES TO REMEMBER
    • “The networks we get to serve and connect with are heroes in discipleship in the field.”
    • “Our metric is getting networks to the place of empowerment. If our logo, name, and involvement can be completely stripped away, then that is our highest success.”
    • “We lean on the networks that we partner with as the experts of their context so that we don’t have to pretend to be.”
    • “Even with all the regional nuances and complexities, truth sets people free.”
    • “Prayer is the most significant fuel of the generosity movement.”
    • “As long as we have something to eat every day, we have something to give to God every day.”

  • Jean Park, Therapist and Coach, on Breaking Generational Patterns to Find Integrated Purpose in Christ (Ep. 163)

    Jean Park, Therapist and Coach, on Breaking Generational Patterns to Find Integrated Purpose in Christ (Ep. 163)
    Nov 3 2025

    Raised in Los Angeles by Korean immigrant parents, Jean Park spent years chasing the markers of success her family valued, only to find herself empty in the process. When she encountered Christ, God redirected her ambitions toward the deeper work of healing and restoration. Leaving corporate America for the field of psychology, Jean discovered a calling that wove together her gifts, story, and faith into an integrated purpose rooted in generosity and grace.

    Now a therapist, coach, and co-founder of the Abide Gathering, Jean helps others—especially within Asian communities—experience freedom from generational patterns that keep them striving instead of giving. Through her work, she shows how inner healing can open hearts to live generously, not from duty but from wholeness, and how alignment with God’s design brings peace, clarity, and joy in stewardship.

    This conversation offers clear, hope-filled guidance for those seeking to live and give from a place of healed purpose and wholehearted trust.

    Major Topics Include:

    • Gaining perspective on your purpose
    • Letting your life story speak to your calling
    • Discerning when to persevere and when to pivot
    • Jean’s healing journey
    • Perspective through healing invisible wounds
    • The gift of being triggered
    • How generosity facilitates healing
    • The long game of heart transformation
    • Tips for discovering your integrated purpose
    QUOTES TO REMEMBER
    • “I felt the Holy Spirit say to me, ‘You need to wake up!’”
    • “God wastes nothing.”
    • “Are you running from something or towards something?”
    • “Oftentimes, our wounds are things we can’t see, and we don’t know how much they are hindering the flow of what God wants to do in and through us.”
    • “If we are invited to face these wounds, I believe it’s a gift from God, pointing us to things that have been keeping us stuck.”
    • “When we heal our wounds, then we are able to freely live into the flow and the way that God has created us to live.”
    • “The thing about heart transformation is that God is in the long game. He is not in the ‘quick behavior transformation’ game, and that’s the beauty and kindness of who He is.”

  • Heather Larson, Philanthropic Advisor, on Aligning Families’ Giving to Create Meaningful Change (Ep. 162)

    Heather Larson, Philanthropic Advisor, on Aligning Families’ Giving to Create Meaningful Change (Ep. 162)
    Oct 27 2025

    Heather Larson, founder of the philanthropy advisory firm LiveGive, traces her calling to early encounters with need and two decades of church ministry where God used her to build compassion and justice work and steward significant generosity. Those years formed a simple conviction, real change grows when giving is personal, prayerful, and connected to faithful people on the ground.

    Today Heather comes alongside families, foundations, and ministries to clarify passion areas, align spouses and generations, and shape practical “giving dream” plans. Drawing on years of leadership with local and global initiatives, she helps givers move from scattered gifts to strategic portfolios, set gracious expectations with partners, and engage meaningfully beyond the check. We also explore where metrics help and where they can hinder, and how a clear plan can free a family to give thoughtfully together. This conversation offers steady, practical wisdom for anyone seeking to steward God’s resources with discernment and joy.

    Major Topics Include:

    • Heather’s heart-wrenching stories from the mission field
    • Helping families develop a giving dream plan
    • Narrowing down a family’s passion areas
    • Exploring a family’s values to help select organizations to give to
    • The importance of spousal alignment
    • Diversity and growth in philanthropic conversations
    • Navigating missed expectations with donors and organizations
    • Encouraging meaningful engagement with passion points
    • Considerations for impact metrics
    QUOTES TO REMEMBER
    • “God, help my heart to always break for the needs in Your world and don’t let me get calloused.”
    • “It’s the local church in a community that can really help meet long term needs and bring about transformation.”
    • “Even for the most data-driven person, their deepest passions are almost always connected to story.”
    • “Once you know a family’s causes and their values, then you can look for great organizations that line up with that criteria.”
    • “It will never become a family legacy if it’s one person’s drive. If it’s going to be a family legacy, it’s going to be shaped by all the family members coming together and everyone having a voice.”
    • “In our world, there is a need for crisis response and immediate relief services, and there is opportunity for long-term transformation.”
    • “If you really want to see transformation and you want to engage well with organizations, it does take intentionality and hard work.”
    • “Keep building your giving muscles!”

  • Andrew Clark, Founder of the Lion’s Den, on Relationships and Risk in Faith Driven Investing (Ep. 161)

    Andrew Clark, Founder of the Lion’s Den, on Relationships and Risk in Faith Driven Investing (Ep. 161)
    Oct 20 2025
    Andrew Clark, founder of the Jeremiah Fund and co-creator of the Lion’s Den, felt drawn to both business and ministry from an early age and soon discovered he could faithfully merge the two. His path has spanned multiple industries as an entrepreneur and investor, where he learned the power of linking arms with other Christians in the marketplace. Through it all, one question has anchored his work: How do you steward influence and capital for eternal impact? That pursuit led to the Lion’s Den, a Shark Tank style forum that connects Christ-centered founders with values-aligned investors. More recently, he launched the Jeremiah Fund to venture differently, pairing capital with discipleship and Kingdom partnership. Andrew is a thoughtful builder with practical frameworks for viewing business, investing, and eternity. His insights will sharpen how you think about faithful stewardship in the marketplace. Major Topics Include: The story of the Lion’s DenWhat God’s doing in impact investingHistorical examples of Christian business networking Considering impact as a Christin investor Three axis of considering impact: the intensity of the mission, the amount of expected return, and the time of expected returnBalancing “showing” and “telling”Finding alignment in faith-driven investingSpirit-led investing when you may not see the fruitNavigating Christian relationships through the ups and downs of businessEncouraging and ministering to struggling founders through the Jeremiah FundThe difference between a driven person and a called personEncouragement for business leaders to be open about their faith QUOTES TO REMEMBER “All of life is ministry. So what are you going to do for ministry in the working world?”“How do we live out our faith in our work in a way that people want to be drawn into the place where we’re worshipping the Lord?”“Let’s try to create an environment where we can encourage collaboration and encourage growth.”“The best thing we did in the Lion’s Den was try to provide a place where people could fellowship and learn, and we weren’t prescribing actions, but we were describing what could be possible.”“There is beauty in the diversity of the Body of Christ, and the more we take stock of that and actually listen the more we see the beauty of the Lord and who He is.” “The more you encourage the opportunity for the Lord to be present and to be shown, the more He will bless it, whether it’s successful or not.” “Christian investing has three parts: charity, philanthropy, and reinvestment.”“Relationships are so important in encouraging Christians in an early stage of this journey.”“A called person realizes that it’s not ultimately their job alone, but God is with them. And it’s not about a performance, but about learning who God is and who they are.”“When you understand who you are and what God’s given you, you will understand more what you can do practically and for the Lord.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Lion’s DenJeremiah FundRegional Advantage by AnnaLee SaxenianLead with Prayer by Ryan Skoog, Peter Greer, Cameron DoolittleThe Finish Line Community Facebook GroupThe Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Matthew 25:14-30 | Parable of the Talents WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

  • Alan Barnhart, Business Leader, on the Story that Sparked a Generation of Givers (Ep. 160)

    Alan Barnhart, Business Leader, on the Story that Sparked a Generation of Givers (Ep. 160)
    Oct 13 2025
    Alan Barnhart grew up in Memphis, where his parents ran a small crane and rigging company. After college he sensed a call to missions just as his parents invited him and his brother to take over the family business. As he wrestled with the decision, God’s answer was clear; Alan’s full-time ministry was the business world. From day one, the brothers regarded the company as God’s. To guard against the spiritual risks of wealth, Alan set a “lifestyle finish line,” capping his personal income at the level of a ministry worker. They also committed to give 50% of annual profits to God’s Kingdom. Over the next 39 years, the once-small firm grew toward a billion-dollar enterprise and now channels millions each year into gospel work. Later, Alan and his brother formalized their conviction by transferring 100% of their ownership to a charitable trust, while continuing to lead the company. Alan’s example has inspired a generation of givers to steward their families, businesses, and resources with wisdom and courage. You won’t want to miss this story. Major Topics Include: Avoiding the dangers of wealthFinding freedom in a financial finish lineHow God led him to give away his company while still being it’s stewardThinking though what to do with profitDeveloping relationship with the recipients of your generosity Generosity decisions as a groupResponsive giving vs. strategic givingDifferences between giving from business capital and giving from personal capitalMaking difficult decisions in generosity Relational aspects of being as a business and generosity leaderManaging a capped lifestyle with childrenThinking through company successionStewarding your generosity story QUOTES TO REMEMBER “God, I’ll go wherever you want me to go.”“My full time ministry was going to be in the business world.”“Jesus warned about money more than He warned about anything else.”“Contentment doesn’t come from stuff, it comes from enjoying what you already have.”“Holding things with an open hand has led to freedom.”“God isn’t trying to extract something from us. He doesn’t want our money, He wants us.”“Generosity breaks the power of greed.”“We say no to 99% of giving opportunities so we can give a big yes to the 1% we support.”“We want to be as strategic in our giving of money as we are in our making of money.”“What does God want us to do with His money?”“There is work to being a steward.”“What we’re doing is not crazy.”“We didn’t see the company as ours, so our kids never saw it as theirs.”“Be a steward of your story as much as you are a steward of your money, because your story may change someone else’s life.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Young LifeJourney to Generosity (JoG) with Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounder, Todd Harper and CEO, April Chapman)Rich Christians in the Age of Hunger by Ronald J.
