Some transcript from Joel’s TEDx speech:
“We have this very mechanistic view in our Greco, Roman, Western, Reductionist, linear, fragmented, compartmentalized, disconnected, democratized, individualized, parts-oriented, thought process we never think about the whole.”
“We’ve never had a sales plan or a marketing target. We’ve never had a benchmark that we’re hitting. In fact, we’ve now made 10 value statements that are anti-Wall Street to keep us true to a value of faithfulness.
Because what I’ve found out, serendipitously, my success is tied to the cumulative effect of everyday stories and faithfulness to injecting sacredness and nobility into every little action of my day. And when we put that kind of ministry – ours is a ministry of healing the land – and when we allow that kind of sacredness and that kind of nobility to permeate every one of our actions the world will be ennobled. The world will indeed rise up to meet us as we leave our legacies and the stamp of our life and life’s story as it becomes our stories for our children and grandchildren.
What will they tell about us? He or she was a person of sacredness and nobility in every aspect of their life, we will have raised a great legacy for our families and our heritage.”
