“Hard work can be fun, exciting, and passionate. Serving people can be the greatest joy in life.” Every since he was a young boy, Lin Weaver has loved to work. From figuring out how he could sell puppies as a six year old, to clocking in for work 3 times a week as a 13 year old, to now being the CEO of Shady Maple…join us on This Significant Life as Lin reflects on stories from business, and what business looks like in the context of the Kingdom.

You can follow Lin’s personal Facebook, where he keeps it open to the public, and posts often on business. Or come see him in person at Shady Maple. He would love to meet you.

On today’s episode of This Significant Life, we are joined by Leroy King, of the Istanbul Initiative. ‘I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that I was going to end up living in the nations.’ Coming from years of darkness, he had an encounter with the Lord that radically changed his life and set him on a completely new trajectory. He and his wife now live in Turkey, ministering, preaching and watching Jesus radically change the lives of the Turkish people. ‘Who are we, that God would use us, and that we would get to see people meet Jesus?’
