Join host Justin Forman for a milestone conversation with Bill Yeargin, CEO of Correct Craft, as they celebrate the company's 100th anniversary. From refusing bribes that led to bankruptcy, to refusing to work Sundays during WWII, to growing from a $39 million company facing the Great Recession to surpassing $1 billion—this is a masterclass in values-driven leadership that stands the test of time.

Bill shares the dramatic "God moments" that convinced him to become the fifth CEO in five years at a broken company, and how a controversial service trip to Mexico became the turning point that saved the culture. Discover why Correct Craft sends employees around the world on company-funded mission trips, how they navigate tough stewardship decisions while maintaining strong faith values, and what it takes to build for the next hundred years.

• The WWII story: Building 420 boats in 23 days without working Sundays
• Spending 20 years of profits to repay legally discharged bankruptcy debts
• Two unmistakable "God signs" that led Bill to Orlando: a house sale and a tutor's call
• Why the Mexico service trip (that everyone opposed) saved the company
• Growing from $39M to over $1 billion through culture and strategic planning
• The Culture Pyramid: Building Boats to the Glory of God, Making Life Better
• Balancing stewardship excellence with faith values in difficult decisions
• Global expansion to 70 countries—including surprising markets like Namibia
• Vertical and horizontal acquisition strategy without outside capital
• Making decisions for the next 25 years, not just short-term wins

"I believe we're alive today as a company because of that first trip." - Bill Yeargin

"We're not just trying to help the people that we're going to serve, we're trying to help our own team too. We've seen so many lives change on our own team over the years." - Bill Yeargin

"You don't make it a hundred years by being over on God's side. You gotta do the things we're supposed to do. Trust God, honor him. Let him bless us." - Bill Yeargin

In this episode, Dr. John Neufeld tackles a common question: Why can't God just be satisfied when people are happy and fulfilled, regardless of what they believe? Drawing from Isaiah 43, he explores the foundational truth that we were created for God's glory, not our own satisfaction. Dr. Neufeld challenges the modern tendency toward experience-only faith and reminds us that we weren't made for ourselves—we were made for Him.

I've Got Questions: In this thought-provoking series, Dr. John Neufeld tackles the real questions people are asking today—from the exclusivity of Christ to the problem of suffering, from biblical authority to assurance of salvation. Rather than offering quick answers, he uses each question as a bridge back to the foundational truths of Scripture. Dr. Neufeld equips believers to build their faith on solid ground while engaging honestly with the challenges of our contemporary world.

Giving Tuesday has become a global moment to celebrate generosity. But for believers, it can be much more than a once-a-year opportunity to give. It can become a catalyst to cultivate a lifestyle of intentional, joy-filled stewardship all year long.

Today, we explore how to give with both heart and wisdom—so that our generosity reflects God’s purposes, not merely the moment. Joining the conversation is Al Mueller, founder and CEO of Excellence in Giving and former executive with Morgan Stanley and UBS.

For Al Mueller, Giving Tuesday is more than a charitable trend—it’s an invitation.

“Giving Tuesday is a great opportunity to begin acting on generosity,” he says, “but it’s also a moment to pause and align with God’s purposes.” Al reminds us of Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 9:7: “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart… for God loves a cheerful giver.”

In other words, generosity is more than an impulse. It is an act of worship. Giving Tuesday can be a spark, but intentional stewardship is the flame that keeps burning throughout the year.

Al summarizes biblical giving with a simple idea: “God gave us both a head and a heart—He didn’t say pick one.”

Wise stewardship holds both together:

• The heart expresses compassion, joy, and worship.
• The head evaluates impact, effectiveness, and alignment with God’s purposes.

Stewardship looks at the Kingdom outcomes we long to see and asks how we can best contribute to them. Some giving is planned, some spontaneous—but all of it can be intentional.

At Excellence in Giving, Al and his team equip high-capacity givers—often those giving $1 million or more annually—to make well-informed, impactful decisions. They offer research, due diligence, and accountability that help donors shift from reactive to proactive giving.

But these principles, Al emphasizes, are not reserved for the ultra-wealthy.

“Everyone can do their own homework,” he says. “Everyone can ask good questions. Everyone can give intentionally.”

Whether you’re giving $50 or $50,000, evaluating ministries wisely matters. Al recommends starting with three core questions:

1. What problem is the ministry trying to solve?
2. What do they believe is the root cause of that problem?
3. What measurable results have they seen?

Healthy ministries provide clear reporting, measurable outcomes, and transparent leadership. They welcome questions and view accountability as part of discipleship.

Key indicators to review include:

• Leadership stability
• Donor and staff retention
• Clear communication
• Transparent financial practices
• Evidence of life change

Strong ministries don’t hide their results—they celebrate them.

Just as there are markers of strong ministries, there are warning signs that should prompt caution:

• Vague vision without a clear plan
• Emotional pressure or over-spiritualizing results
• Lack of reporting or unwillingness to share outcomes
• Over-dependence on a single donor
• Repeated urgent appeals for funds

Al calls vague visions “ministry hallucinations”—dreams without blueprints. Just as you wouldn’t build a house without plans, you shouldn’t fund ministry without clarity.

One of the most exciting developments in philanthropy today is collaborative giving—donors pooling resources to make a larger, more strategic impact.

Pooling resources:
