The Faith Driven MBA is a deep dive into what it looks like to be a Faith Driven Leader.

We will cover stories, insights and scripture that help you become a Faith Driven Leader.

But let's be clear: I have very few answers and way more questions.

This place is meant to be a journey, not an answer. I am a naturally curious person who likes to ask difficult questions and search for answers. I also LOVE to bring along my extensive friend group to help us on the journey.

You've come to the right place If you're interested in exploring questions like:

  • what does it mean to be Faith Driven?

  • is ambition a good thing?

  • how do you lovingly fire people?

  • when do grace and kindness trump business success?

  • can you really take a Sabbath and be successful?

  • what does a life well-lived mean for me?

  • what are my values, why do they matter and how do integrate them more into my everyday life?

You likely:

  • love Jesus

  • desperately want to learn from others

  • want to hear “well done good and faithful servant”

  • want to build a profitable business

  • like to have fun
