  • Josh Kwan: Your Unique Path to Learning and Giving

    Josh Kwan: Your Unique Path to Learning and Giving
    May 21 2024

    How has God uniquely designed you? How are you using those design gifts?

    In this episode, Jeff and Josh discuss:

    • Josh’s lifetime of learning begins in an immigrant home.
    • Learning alongside and lifelong curiosity.
    • Stewarding God’s resources responsibly.
    • Using your business for impact in God’s kingdom.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Reading the newspapers (or other publications) from around the world allows you glimpses into cultures and people that you wouldn’t be able to otherwise. As newspapers have gone out of fashion, you can still connect with others through other ways.
    • If you want to live like a king, you have to treat your wife like a queen. If you’re neglecting your family, you’re not living up to your full potential.
    • Lean into your interests and passions - God gave them to you to lead you and allow you to build His kingdom with your talents.
    • As a business owner, there are things you can do to light the path for your team, clients, or network. How you apply gospel principles is unique to you and your business.

    "There's just an infinite way that God's designed each of us. So I encourage each person to see how God has uniquely designed you exactly. Let that flourish in your giving, in how you run a company, and lean into that. You don't have to be a cookie cutter, there's more than one path." — Josh Kwan

    About Josh Kwan: Josh Kwan is the President of The Gathering, a learning community of philanthropists motivated by their Christian faith to give humbly and steward wisely all the resources God has entrusted to their care. Previously, he was a Co-Founder and Partner at Praxis, a creative engine for redemptive entrepreneurship whose mission is to build ventures, foster community, and create content for equipping Christian innovators, founders, and funders.

    Josh served as the Director of International Giving for the David Weekley Family Foundation, where he divided his time between conducting due diligence on innovative social enterprises and helping portfolio organizations scale their impact. He worked as a journalist and was published in The San Jose Mercury News, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, and Stanford Social Innovation Review. He also co-founded Abide, a mobile app for encouraging and enlivening the practice of prayer and meditation. He has an AB from Harvard College and an MBA from Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management. He lives with his family near San Francisco.

  • Pete Chambers: Intentionality and Integration

    Pete Chambers: Intentionality and Integration
    May 14 2024

    Is it possible to be a great Christian, a loving husband, and do really well in the marketplace?

    In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Pete discuss:

    • The ups and downs of faith after growing up in church.
    • Understanding wealth and keeping your kids' feet on the ground.
    • Pleasing the Lord in all you do.
    • Avoiding complacency

    Key Takeaways:

    • Looking successful because of your dad, does not lead to happiness.
    • Find a reason to tell your son they don’t need to prove anything and that you are proud of them.
    • Intentionality is the only way to make it work - there is no easy road.
    • There are 31 Proverbs - if you don’t know where to start in the Bible, start on the current day in Proverbs.
    • It is never too late to make peace with those in your life.

    "Life balance is not the key. Intentionality and integration are the keys. The only way you can get good at saying no is to know what you’re saying yes to." — Pete Chambers
