Do you meticulously plan your business strategy but wing it when it comes to your family's future? You're not alone. In this powerful episode, Tyler McCart shares a wake-up call for marketplace Christians about the glaring disconnect between how we approach business planning versus family planning.

Tyler recounts a story from speaker Randy Pope who, at a business conference, challenged executives on this very contradiction. These leaders unanimously agreed they would never invest in a venture without a comprehensive plan, yet when asked about their life and family plans, the room fell silent. This revelation becomes the springboard for Tyler's passionate call to create family constitutions—frameworks that unite spiritual values with financial legacy.

Drawing from biblical principles and personal experience, Tyler explores how a family constitution serves as the North Star for generational wealth transfer that honors God. He outlines practical steps for defining family values, creating a shared vision, and establishing governance structures that can preserve both spiritual heritage and financial resources across multiple generations. Just as Moses documented Israel's stories in the Torah, Tyler encourages families to document their values and formative stories to guide future generations.

This isn't about controlling your children's paths, but rather establishing a structure that can help pass along generational values and wealth for three generations or more. Tyler references the Rockefeller family's seven-generation success as an example of what's possible with intentional planning.
