Wealth Structure: David deliberately transferred ALL equity into an irrevocable trust that funds evangelical ministries in perpetuity. His children work in the business and earn wages but do not inherit ownership. Forbes removed him from the billionaires list in 2024 as the transfer completed.

UNVERIFIED: Exact annual profit figure for Hobby Lobby (private company, no disclosure requirement). The 50% giving figure is from David's public statements; the denominator is estimated from industry analysis.

Giving Pattern: STRUCTURAL, not project-based. He redesigned ownership of a $14.4B company into a perpetual ministry-funding engine. Pattern: build wealth → steward for Kingdom → give ALL away.

Co-Givers: The Green family operates as a unit. Mart (Bible translation), Steve (Bible access/Museum), Darsee (education). Bill High is the external advisor who structured the giving architecture.

UNVERIFIED: Specific annual grant amounts from the trust to individual ministries (trust filings not public). The 50% figure is self-reported; no independent audit available.

Critical insight: The Green Family Foundation Trust ($17.8M) is a SMALL side vehicle. The real giving capacity is through Hobby Lobby corporate (50% of profits) and personal/family giving. David has publicly stated he gives away 50% of pretax earnings for "about the last 20–25 years."

Green Stewardship T

FAITH & ALIGNMENT

Why Faith (not Sovereign, not Family-Office, not Operator):

David Green is faith-first, faith-only. He transferred 100% of Hobby Lobby's voting stock to a trust because "God is the true owner." He gives 50% of profits — roughly $2 billion per year — to ministry. His stated highest aspiration is "telling as many people as possible about Jesus." Any framing that does not center God's Kingdom purposes would be immediately disqualifying. The Sovereign template would emphasize independence over obedience. The Operator template would celebrate the founder when Green credits God. The Family-Office template would be too institutional and financial. The Faith template speaks pure Kingdom language: stewardship, Great Commission, generational legacy, God's purposes through technology. This is the ONLY frame that reaches David Green.

Denomination: Evangelical / Assemblies of God tradition

Church: Local evangelical church, Oklahoma City

Alignment Score: 98/100

CLA book excerpt: https://christianleadershipalliance.org/blog/2023/02/13/leadership-not-by-the-book-by-david-green-with-bill-high/

David Green is the most radical example of kingdom stewardship in American business history. He built a $7B+ revenue empire (Hobby Lobby) and gave away 100% of it to fund evangelical ministry in perpetuity. His family's combined impact spans Bible translation (illumiNations), Bible access (Museum of the Bible, YouVersion), Christian retail (Mardel), and the Supreme Court religious liberty victory (Burwell v. Hobby Lobby). He gives 50% of annual profits (~$500M–$1B) to gospel causes.

WARM PATH & RELATIONSHIPS

Primary warm path: Via Bill High (NCF/Signatry)

Mart Green (David's son, Hobby Lobby Board Chair) drives illumiNations — a coalition to get the Bible into all 6,000+ languages by 2033
AI is ALREADY accelerating Bible translation in the illumiNations ecosystem: Scripture Forge, Serval, and other AI translation tools are cutting timelines in half
FDE Episode 371: Mart Green discussed AI in translation on Faith Driven Entrepreneur podcast (2026)
illumiNations milestone: Moved completion from 2150→2041 using technology; 100K chapters/year
Genesis's sovereign NLP/AI directly serves this mission — faith-aligned, uncensored, multi-lingual AI for Bible translation

PRIMARY: Bill High (Legacy Stone) → David Green | Bill High is the trusted advisor who has David's ear

SECONDARY: Mart Green (via FDE/Henry Kaestner/Justin Forman) → family connection to David

TERTIARY: Museum of the Bible events → Steve Green → family

GEOGRAPHIC NOTE: Oklahoma City (David) is ~3 hours from Dallas (Carter); manageable for in-person

1. Build Mart Green relationship through FDE/Justin Forman/Henry Kaestner — Mart is more tech-forward, more accessible, and already using AI for Bible translation

2. Connect with Bill High (Legacy Stone) — the trusted family advisor who David personally listens to

3. Frame Genesis as serving illumiNations mission — AI that accelerates Bible translation into 6,000+ languages

4. Eventually: Mart or Bill High brings Genesis to David's attention

5. In David's frame: "God is providing a new tool to tell people about Jesus in every language — Genesis is that tool"

Primary: Bill High (CEO, Legacy Stone) → David Green

Bill High co-authored "The Legacy Life" with David Green (Dec 2025). He is the family's most trusted advisor on legacy and stewardship. A recommendation from Bill goes directly to David's ear.
How to reach Bill: legacystone.com; Kansas City-based; speaks at family office and generational wealth events. Carter should lead with Day 7's stewardship trust structure — it mirrors the Green family's October 2022 stock transfer philosophy identically.

Secondary: Mart Green (via Henry Kaestner / Justin Forman / FDE network) → David

Mart is David's eldest son, Board Chair of Hobby Lobby, and the most tech-forward family member. He already uses AI for Bible translation (illumiNations/Scripture Forge). Accessible via Faith Driven Entrepreneur podcast network.

Tertiary: Todd Peterson (illumiNations co-leader) → Mart Green → David

Bill,

>

I've been deeply moved by "The Legacy Life" and the stewardship model the Green family has championed — the conviction that God owns it all, and our job is faithful deployment.

>

I'm the founder of Genesis, a faith-first AI platform structured as a Public Benefit Corporation. We transferred governance into a stewardship model for the same reason David transferred Hobby Lobby's stock: because the mission must outlive the man.

>

Here's why I'm reaching out: Mart's work through illumiNations is accelerating Bible translation with AI — and he identified on FDE Episode 371 that 2,000 languages still have zero written data for AI to train on. We built a sovereign AI system — no dependency on Meta or Google — specifically designed for exactly this gap. Faith-first architecture. No censorship of Scripture. Data stays under ministry control.

>

I'm not asking for anything today except your wisdom: would you be open to a brief conversation about whether this serves the Kingdom the way I believe it does? And if so, whether Mart would benefit from seeing what we've built?

>

With deep respect for the legacy you're helping steward,

Carter Hill

Founder, Day 7 PBC

Bill,

>

I need your wisdom on something. I've spent three years building an AI system called Genesis — built alone, self-funded, biblical foundation. It's the digital equivalent of what David Green built with the Museum of the Bible: permanent infrastructure for scripture
