Carlos Martins: Billionaire Turned Humanitarian Missionary
Podcast: All InPublished On: Wed Jul 13 2022
Description: After making a fortune from the English language schools he created in Brazil, Carlos Martins and his wife, Vania, turned their attention to serving the Lord and their family. In hopes of helping their son achieve his dream of serving a full-time mission, they served a humanitarian mission on the border of Venezuela. By the Martins’ count, they were able to help 20,000 refugees relocate. On this week’s episode, Martins discusses how the English schools came to be, and how he came to see that concern for his son was only a means to an end for the Lord. "If we allow the Lord to guide our path, and we give up our own plan, in order to believe His miracles, unpredictable miracles of multiplication, will happen in our everyday life." https://deseretbook.com/p/176264?variant_id=200328-ebook Carlos speaks at BYU- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nduEUAnTGQ https://www.forbes.com/sites/ricardogeromel/2014/01/14/meet-the-wizard-who-became-a-billionaire-teaching-english-to-brazilians/?sh=d7127dd5c384 https://www.deseret.com/faith/2022/3/2/22956971/the-wizard-of-hope-carlos-martins-brazil-billionaires-refugee-crisis 3:04- A Wife’s Insistence 6:03- Back to Brazil 9:18- The Wizard School 14:07- Pass Along Cards 20:20- A Different Plan 29:18- The Love of Parents and the Reality of God 42:40- Calling in a Favor 47:34- Why Help Refugees? 47:41- How To Help 48:13- What Does It Mean To Be All In the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
