Invest in Faith & Work

What does it look like to follow Jesus in the everyday, ordinary work we do? In this panel, business leaders and experts will explore how Christians from all generations are called to interact within secular spaces and change culture by building relationships and honoring God in the way we work and serve.

Christian Influence in Corporate Culture

In this talk, Carey Nieuwhof explores what it means to cultivate healthy leadership in unhealthy cultures. With years of pastoral and organizational experience, he reminds us, as J. Krishnamurti once said, “It is no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” When we refuse to let culture define our values, we protect our integrity and the people we serve. Through the THINQ Framework, Carey helps us see leadership through a fuller lens—rooted in theology that shapes our values, aware and a student of history’s lessons, open to honest reflection, attuned to complex realities, and grounded in the courage to question what’s been normalized.


Healthy Leadership in Unhealthy Cultures

Robin John shows how gratitude and faithfulness fuel the courage to do work that matters. Through his testimony, Robin illustrates how God works in and through those who stay faithful, even when it goes against the culture of the day. He invites listeners to reflect: Do we focus on our own comfort, or do we serve the needs of others? Gratitude helps us see the bigger picture—the welfare of our city, our community, and ultimately ourselves. In giving thanks and acting with purpose, we discover that courage grows naturally.
