'It gives me a bigger purpose than just making money.'

– The owner and founder of Hobby Lobby announced Friday that he has given away ownership of the company, a decision he says he came to when he “chose God.”in which he explained how he came to his decision and how his faith has guided him in his role as leader of the hobby company.

“Consider the idea of where your success comes from,” he wrote. “I’ve seen many a business with the greatest of ideas not make it, and yet others with the simplest of ideas thrive. I believe that God is the one who grants success, and with it the responsibility to be a good manager.” “Well-meaning attorneys and accountants advised me to simply pass ownership down to my children and grandchildren,” he wrote. “It didn’t seem fair to me that I might change or even ruin the future of grandchildren who had not even been born yet.”
