Title: The Legacy We Leave: Insights from Episode 111 of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast

Introduction

In our latest episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, titled “Legacy,” Drew and Tim delve into the profound topic of legacy—what it means, why it matters, and how we can cultivate it in our everyday lives. They explore how our actions today shape the memories and impacts we leave behind for future generations. Below are some key takeaways from the episode.

Understanding Legacy

Legacy is often discussed as something far-off or only pertinent to individuals in the twilight of their lives. This podcast episode challenges that notion by bringing to light the immediacy and importance of cultivating a legacy today. Drew and Tim examine the biblical context of legacy and discuss how it influences not only family but also community, ministry, and broader societal change.

Living with Intentionality

A critical insight shared in this episode comes from Craig Groeschel’s advice at the Global Leadership Summit (GLS): focus on doing fewer things but do them well. By concentrating on three core priorities each day, we avoid spreading ourselves too thin and diluting our impact. This intentional focus ensures that the legacy we leave is substantial and meaningful.

Integrating Faith and Action

Throughout the podcast, Drew and Tim emphasize the role of faith in shaping our legacy. They explore how being intentional about our relationship with God influences our actions and the mark we leave on the world. Tim reflects on his personal journey and how his role as a husband, father, and leader is informed by his spiritual commitments.

Real-World Application

The episode doesn’t just theorize about legacy; it offers practical advice. Drew challenges listeners to write out their eulogy—an exercise that prompts us to think deeply about how we want to be remembered and whether our current actions align with that vision. Similarly, they suggest focusing on important tasks rather than urgent distractions, as echoed in John Maxwell’s principles of leadership.

Conclusion

As Tim and Drew wrap up episode 111, they leave us with a powerful reminder: legacy isn’t simply what you achieve, but how you live each day. This episode inspires us to live with purpose and intention, ensuring that our legacy is one of faith, love, and influence. Whether through the words we speak, the actions we take, or the lives we touch, our legacy begins now.
