65. A Heart for Eternity With Janet and Dan Hellige (The Legacy Coalition)

A Heart for Eternity With Janet and Dan Hellige The Legacy Coalition

Listen in as Charlotte, Janet and Dan talk about what it means for us as empty nesters to have a heart for eternity and to pass that yearning on to our children and grandchildren.

Dan is the new CEO of The Legacy Coalition, a Christian grandparenting ministry. He and Janet have five children and seven grandchildren and a heart for what it means to parent and grandchildren with intention and the love of Christ.

March 19 - 21, 2026, in Stonebriar, Texas, is the Legacy Coalition's Grandparenting Summit in Frisco, Texas. It's the only national conference on grandparenting. This year's theme, "A Heart for Eternity" invites us to invest our time, energy, and resources in what lasts. Because what we do now impacts not only our children and grandchildren, but untold generations to come. It's a wonderful opportunity to invest in your grandchildren's forever and to grow deeper in Christ as a couple as you do. At the summit you will receive wisdom, find hope, and learn from incredible speakers and breakout presenters. There will be a resource center, offering tools to help your grandparenting journey. And it's also uplifting to gather with other Christian grandparents who want to build their spiritual legacy. There is comfort in community!

Janet and Dan encourage others to "be the gospel." There is much to learn from the Helliges, at the grandparenting summit and as you listen to this conversation. Thanks for sharing your time with us!
