Special Message from Davy Liu
From The Lion King to The King of Kings
I’ve had the honor of helping create classic animated films for major children’s entertainment giants like Disney, Warner Bros., and Lucasfilm. Chasing my Hollywood dream as a Christian filmmaker, my goal was crystal clear: to win an Oscar for Christ.
But in 1999, while working on Star Wars, God did something unexpected. He sent a mysterious creature to my backyard—one with tentacles. That divine encounter reshaped everything. It redirected my purpose from chasing accolades to winning souls.
Now, through my animation studio, Kendu Films, I’m telling stories that point children and families to the love of Christ.
We Kendu it.

Keynote Speaker – Todd Stottlemyre
At 16 years old, Todd Stottlemyre made the most courageous decision of his young life—he became a bone marrow donor for his 11-year-old brother, who was battling leukemia. He was the only match. But the transplant that was meant to save his brother’s life instead put him into a coma and ultimately took his life. That tragedy shattered Todd. He carried the crushing belief that he was responsible for his brother’s death —a burden that rewired his mind with guilt, self-hatred, and emotional chaos.
Years later, from the outside looking in, Todd appeared to be living the dream. He was in his twenties, making millions, and had just won his second World Series title. But inside, he was broken. He hated himself. It was at that moment of peak external success that Todd finally reached out for help. And that’s when the real transformation began.
He began the deep, internal work of rewiring his mind—learning how to forgive himself, master his emotions, and build a mindset rooted in truth, discipline, and self-leadership. That journey not only extended his Major League career to 15 seasons, including three World Series championships, but it became the foundation for a life of purpose far beyond the game.
After baseball, Todd channeled that same relentless mindset into business. He became a top-performing financial advisor at Merrill Lynch, went on to lead a hedge fund, and co-founded a thriving fast-casual franchise restaurant company in the poke space—where he remains actively involved today as a founder and operator. He continues to build and advise businesses through entrepreneurship and private equity.
Now a high-performance coach, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and advisor to top business leaders and athletes, Todd is on a mission to help others break free from limiting beliefs, rewire their thinking, and achieve peak success in every area of life.
His methods are rooted in both lived experience and the science of success. His latest book, The Observer: A Modern Fable on Mastering Your Mind, is available now wherever books are sold.
Todd is also a devoted husband and father of five—living every day by the same principles he teaches.

Deuteronomy 4 calls us to live in a way that makes the world say, “What an amazing God you must serve!” If our leadership looks just like the world’s, we’re doing it wrong. This session challenges Christian executives to reclaim biblical principles the marketplace is only now catching up to — and shows how to build a business that boldly reflects your faith and serves people with purpose.
