Together, they take a deep dive into the topic of legacy living and giving—how to live a meaningful life rooted in faith, generosity, purpose, and preparation.With practical frameworks and biblically sound wisdom, Brian shares five critical points to help individuals and families eliminate chaos and confusion while building lives of impact and intentionality.🧱 Key Takeaways:1. FAITH Matters –"F.A.I.T.H. = Fantastic Adventures In Trusting Him" Faith is the foundation of the legacy life. Brian challenges listeners to embrace faith as a life of adventure with God, quoting Galatians 2:20 and John 10:10.2. FIND Your Purpose – Purpose is where passion, skills, resources, God's plan, and people's needs intersect.

FAMILY Matters –"Information is more important than wealth." Brian emphasizes the importance of preparing your family for the future with tools like the Because I Love You Legacy Organizer. A lack of preparation leads to chaos, confusion, and even financial loss.4. FOCUSED Giving –"Do your giving while you're living so you're knowing where it's going." Brian encourages regular, spontaneous, sacrificial, and legacy giving—emphasizing the importance of honoring God with both our income and accumulated wealth.5.
