Hobby Lobby Culture Video

Mission, Vision, & Values

The Hobby Lobby mission statement makes direct reference to Christian principles, and clearly intends to align all stakeholders with biblical principles. Green demonstrates his personal commitment to his Christian-based business by keeping his retail stores closed on Sundays. In 2012, Green also launched a Freedom of Religion based lawsuit against the U.S. government in protest over the requirement to provide insurance coverage for “emergency contraceptives,” which is against his religion.
