If internship offers experience for one’s resume, what does internship lodging provide? In Ethan Rosen’s case, it led to far more than anticipated, as he narrates on this podcast episode. Ethan could not afford lodging for his sports management internship, so his coach introduced him to a church whose members opened their homes one summer for several weeks each. Thus, Ethan met a seed producer, became enthralled with the business, lived in his home for several years, and eventually acquired the company.

He and host Dr. Matt Davis laugh about former college escapades, tempering it now with a more mature perspective. They observe that the same leadership Ethan exercised with peers as football captain is the same energy needed in business. For now, Ethan asserts, until the Lord directs otherwise, he is gratified glorifying God by caring for employees and providing seed to feed the world.
