Keith Phillips

Keith is a former globetrotter with the US Army who, alongside his wife

Becky and their six children, has embraced a life centered on purposeful
work and family unity. As an advocate for productive families and
enduring Christian legacies, Keith is passionate about combating
the consumerist culture that fragments modern life. Currently, he is
introducing “bunkies”—small DIY linked-log cabin kits from Canada—to
America, offering families a unique way to build extra space, generate
income, and foster meaningful connections.
Keith’s philosophy emphasizes the importance of family and
community, with work serving as the catalyst and touchstone for both.
He believes that shared, meaningful work strengthens family bonds
and instills a sense of purpose. Through his work with Bunkie Life, Keith
champions the idea that families are meant to be producers, not
consumers, and encourages others to live a life of biblical producerism.
