    Episode 2 - Why Tim Tebow Dedicated His Life To Fight Human Trafficking

    Tim Tebow's father was at an underground pastors' conference in a country where faith isn't allowed. Men walked in and began auctioning four little girls. He emptied his wallet, about $1,250, and bought their freedom. Every other person at that table had a good reason not to. That story is where this episode starts, and it is why Tim Tebow is in this fight. Tebow and Wes Lyons come at human trafficking from two directions. Tebow's foundation works on prevention, rescue and long-term survivor care, and he argues trafficking is a worth problem before it is a policy problem. Lyons is a general partner at Eagle Venture Fund, which built the first venture funds designed to seed a counter-trafficking industry. His answer to where the victims are is uncomfortable: 90% pass through healthcare, on average 15 to 18 times, before anyone identifies them. One entrepreneur they back has trained 6,000 frontline doctors and nurses to notice, with a rollout across 5,000 hospitals planned. Both men land in the same place from opposite ends.

    Episode 1 - What Problem Is God Calling You to Solve? | Henry Kaestner & Justin Forman

    Why We're Solving the World's Greatest Problems There are 1.8 million nonprofits in the United States and only about 4,500 publicly traded companies. That gap is the whole problem — too many good hearts, not enough coordination. In the first episode of Solving the World's Greatest Problems, co-founders Henry Kaestner and Justin Forman sit down together to launch a bold new chapter of the movement they started eight years ago. Henry Kaestner and Justin Forman co-founded Faith Driven Entrepreneur and Faith Driven Investor, growing a global movement across 130 countries and 55,000 foundation course participants. In this launch conversation, they trace the journey from stewardship to generosity to investing — and cast vision for why the next chapter isn't about giving more, but deploying differently. Key Topics: Eight years of Faith Driven Entrepreneur and Faith Driven Investor, and the cultural moment behind itWhy "build first, then give" — and why investing was never the first moveThe story of Dave Munson, who built his own leather casket to proclaim the GospelDylan Wilk's reversal from helicopter commutes to a 600-job makeup companyThe upstream problem: why 1.8 million nonprofits can't out-coordinate 4,500 companiesIlluminations and the race to translate Scripture into every living language by 2033Why the name "Solving the World's Greatest Problems" is intentionally audaciousThis isn't a rebrand — it's a reordering. God doesn't need anyone's five loaves and two fish. He wants the people who hold them, deployed toward the fight He's already in. Eight Funds are live right now, and more foundation courses are launching every month this fall. Watch the full episode on YouTube or continue to stream audio on your favorite podcast platform.
