Here in America and Canada, we often underestimate the idea that families are meant to last—not just for a generation, but for many, says Bill High.

In Japan, Switzerland, Italy—you’ll see companies that have lasted 200, 500, even 1,000 years.

Because families there think in centuries, not just a single generation. What if we did the same?

High is the co-author of “The Legacy Life” with David Green, the billionaire founder of Hobby Lobby, which is known for their Christian values and for giving away HALF of all their profits.

It starts simple, High says:
• Define your family values
• Write down 3–5 words that will anchor your family. The Green family’s are: “God, family, people.”
• Have a family mission statement.
• Put them on the wall and on the doorposts of your home
• Talk about them morning and night and at the dinner table
• Live by them—together

The Green family’s mission statement is simple: “To love God intimately and live extravagant generosity.”

A family built on purpose—the kind that lasts 150 years—starts with what you choose to stand for right now.
