96 | Legacy Letters - Chapter 1 - Chris Hodges

In this special episode of the GrowLeader Podcast, Pastor Chris Hodges gives listeners an exclusive first look at his brand-new book, Legacy Letters: Timeless Principles I Learned, Lived, and Leave Behind, releasing April 14.

Originally written as a personal collection of life lessons for his grandchildren, this project evolved into a powerful resource for leaders, families, and anyone seeking to live with greater purpose and intention. In this episode, you'll hear the full audio of the book's introduction—"the first letter"—along with Chapter 1: The Big Rocks Principle.

Pastor Chris unpacks how prioritizing what matters most—faith, family, health, and purpose—can bring clarity, peace, and direction in a chaotic world. Through personal stories, leadership insight, and practical application, this episode will challenge you to rethink your priorities and build your life on what truly lasts.

Whether you're a leader, parent, or simply looking to grow, this episode will help you refocus on what matters most and begin building a legacy that lasts.
