What does it really mean to lead with faith and values in today’s world of politics, business, and community service? In this episode of Purpose Driven Capital, host Matt Jones sits down with Texas State Representative Jacey Jetton, whose journey reflects the rare balance of public service, military duty, small business ownership, and pastoral leadership.

From enlisting in the Army after 9/11 to serving in the Texas Legislature, Jacey has consistently chosen sacrifice over personal gain. He shares candidly about the misconceptions around public office, the reality of earning just $600 a month as a legislator, and the personal costs that come with a life of service. For Jacey, leadership isn’t about power, it’s about legacy.

This conversation dives into how faith-based leadership and Christian entrepreneurship can empower communities in ways government cannot. Jacey discusses his strong support for nonprofits, particularly those working in foster care reform and local relief efforts. He emphasizes why equipping community-based organizations is more effective than relying solely on government systems, and how true impact comes from those closest to the people.

We also hear the remarkable story of how, during his military reserve service, Jacey appointed his wife to serve in the Legislature, a moment that highlights both the challenges and the creativity required of leaders who wear multiple hats.

At its core, this episode is about what it means to preserve the American Dream for future generations by leading with ethics, service, and faith. If you’re interested in values-driven leadership, legacy-building, and how business, politics, and faith can intersect to create real impact, you won’t want to miss this conversation.
