This week on Made For This, Jennie Allen sits down with Mart Green, founder and CEO of Mardel Christian Stores, to explore the transformative power of generational generosity and intimacy with God. Their conversation delves into how true generosity is a direct response to following Jesus, and Mart reflects on his three core values, reminding us that “we exist to give it away.” Mart also shares insights from his new book, co-authored with David Bowden, Learning to Be Loved: The Everyday Believer's Guide to a Rich Relationship with God. He emphasizes that you don’t have to chase after intimacy with God; He is actively pursuing you! To wrap up the episode, Mart offers encouragement and practical steps for anyone feeling distant from God. You won’t want to miss it!
