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 it
• Why "build first, then give" — and why investing was never the first move
• The story of Dave Munson, who built his own leather casket to proclaim the Gospel
• Dylan Wilk's reversal from helicopter commutes to a 600-job makeup company
• The upstream problem: why 1.8 million nonprofits can't out-coordinate 4,500 companies
• Illuminations and the race to translate Scripture into every living language by 2033
• Why the name "Solving the World's Greatest Problems" is intentionally audacious

This 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.
