About this listen

Welcome to the Rich, Young & Powerful Podcast!

In this episode of Rich, Young & Powerful, Andrew McNair is joined by Jimmy Mellado, President & CEO of Compassion International, to explore what it truly means to love God and love people through a life of sacrificial generosity and purpose. Jimmy shares his remarkable journey—from growing up in poverty-affected countries and competing as an Olympic athlete to leading one of the world’s largest church-driven child development ministries. He opens up about discovering his God-given identity, why Compassion is more than a child sponsorship organization, and how we can move from passive sympathy to courageous action that transforms lives. Whether you’re a giver, a leader, or someone seeking your place in God’s story, this episode offers powerful encouragement to step in, speak up, and serve well. Highlights:
  • Jimmy’s personal testimony of identity, purpose, and calling
  • How Compassion equips local churches to serve 2.4 million children
  • Why generosity must be rooted in discernment and measurable impact
