131. The Day I met Stanley Tam

Hear the inspiring story of Fellowship of Companies for Christ International (FCCI), a pioneer organization in the Faith and Work Movement. Founded 44 years ago, FCCI asked the question, “what would it look like to apply biblical principles to business, and how would it impact the world for God’s glory?”

Taped on location from D.C. at the Impact Summit, one of FCCI’s founders, Bobby Mitchell, recalls meeting Stanley Tam, the Christ-loving CEO of U.S. Plastic, in May of 1980. At the time, Tam said that his goal was to bring five people to Christ each day, donate two million dollars annually, and plant churches internationally. Today, the business Stanley Tam built has generated more than $140 million towards the work of the Lord. It was this conversation that awoke Mitchell to the kind of Kingdom impact that businesses could have if they collaborated. Imagine thousands of companies like Tam’s, all dedicated to hearing God’s voice and fulfilling God’s purposes!

According to Chad Merrill, the current CEO of FCCI, their vision is to transform the world through Christ, one business owner at a time. They do this by equipping and encouraging business owners to live lives of cultural influence through biblical business practices, generosity, service, and stewardship. Ultimately, FCCI believes that God owns it all, and we are entrusted with resources to further His glory, not ours. It is from this place of stewardship that business owners are finding purpose and fulfillment at work.
