What if one simple act of kindness could spark a global movement? In this powerful episode, Rich Bennett talks with Luke Mickelson, founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace, who left behind a successful sales career to build beds for children in need. What began in his garage in 2012 has grown into a nationwide nonprofit with chapters in nearly every state and several countries.

Luke shares the emotional story behind the first bed build, the inspiration from his own upbringing, and the "two-by-four moment" that changed his life. It's a story of faith, purpose, and the power of taking action when you feel called to serve.

 

Guest: Luke Mickelson 

Luke Mickelson is the founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need so that "no kid sleeps on the floor in our town."

Since 2012, SHP has delivered over 300,000 beds worldwide and mobilized over half a million volunteer hours.
