  • Blake Brewer: The Legacy Letter Challenge
    2024/07/25
    About Blake Brewer: Blake Brewer is the founder of The Legacy Letter Challenge. A loving and religious family man, Blake’s mission is to help 1 million dads and moms write at least one well-written, meaningful, and lasting legacy letter for their children to hopefully leave behind a loving legacy. This mission was the result of the unfortunate and sudden passing of his greatest mentor, his father - Larry Brewer. By writing a legacy letter whether it be for a gift, a special occasion, a regular reminder, or even for preparing for the worst, Blake believes that giving your loved ones a legacy letter will help you connect with them on a deeper, more personal level. In his words, the best reason to partake in the Legacy Letter Challenge is “because your legacy matters.” Listen to this informative Legacy Leaders episode with Blake Brewer about his mission to help connect parents to their children and leave behind a lasting legacy, his backstory, his mission named the Letter Legacy Challenge, what, why, and when to a write letter, and the power of writing a legacy letter. Here is what to expect on this week’s show: ● Blake’s backstory ● How Blake’s dad’s death started his mission ● How becoming a dad changed his life ● The power of writing a legacy letter with testimonies from parents ● Why write a legacy letter? And when is best to do so? Key takeaways: ● The impact Blake’s father had on him and on his Legacy Letter Challenge is profound. A letter written by his dad was a very powerful moment and he wants to share it with every parent to hopefully help them leave behind a lasting legacy. ● Personal stories of legacy letters and testimonies from clients, noting how the recipients of these letters appreciated and strengthened relationships were shared. ● The best time to write a legacy letter is when a child is born, and the second best time is now ● A blank computer screen is an intimidating thing, making it difficult to write a legacy letter on your own, which is why Blake provides a template and guide to writing a well-written, meaningful, and lasting legacy letter. “As you're being faithful to the Bible, you're often going to find yourself in the minority. But I assure you that in heaven, you'll be in the majority. Love, your dear old Dad.” From Larry Brewer to Blake Brewer (a quote from a letter his dad gave that he says he goes back to even as a father himself) “Dad, she said that you'll never know how much that letter meant to me. And how much I needed it. It was as if God Himself was speaking to me, the relationship that you and I have is better off because of it. But every relationship that I have, there's more trust in it because of your letter.” From a daughter who received a legacy letter from her dad Connect with Blake: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/blakecbrewer/ Links Mentioned: Legacy Letter Challenge: https://www.legacyletterchallenge.com/ Legacy Letter Challenge Contact Info: Twitter: https://twitter.com/giftofdad Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legacy_letter/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/legacyletterchallenge LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/legacy-letter/ Learn more about your ad choices.
