This week on LIVING IT LOUD: Doug Ideker 

“After selling Gypsum Products, realizing my time remaining in the industry I had spent 26 years in would be short, I knew I needed help figuring out the next chapter in my life. One thing I knew for sure – I was not the kind of guy who was going to coast through retirement sitting in front of the TV watching old westerns. At the encouragement of my wife, Terrie, and good friend John Scott, I signed up to go through the HalfTime coaching program. Halftime, a book written by Bob Buford, is a manual for people entering retirement or career change, aimed at turning first half of life success into second half significance. It is based on finding one’s Ephesians 2:10 calling.  The other major decision Terrie and I made was to take a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the company and start a family foundation. There were several factors that went into that decision. First, we knew God was in charge of the events leading to the sale of the company. Second, we wanted to begin giving back to the Kingdom in a significant way. Next, we wanted our sons to understand we wished to build a family legacy of giving and we were hopeful they would participate with the management and decision making of the foundation. Finally, we weren’t just going to throw money at needs. Our interest was for our entire family to use the unique qualities God instilled in us to help the non-profits we work with succeed.”
