Summer '24 Savior Summit

The practice of the virtues is a path of love. Let’s consider creation, temptation, sin, our Fall from Grace, and the example of virtue we learn in Christ. It’s about learning to focus on living the virtues in our personal and professional lives… to have the heart of a servant in all we do.

As a C-suite leader, you’re ambitious and the “hustle” might secretly fuel your adrenaline. Yet, have you ever struggled with:

• the tension between outward success and inward unrest?
• the exhaustion & expectation of overachievement as a C-suite leader, even if it’s in your own business?
• a loss of peace, joy, and fulfillment in your work?

The world’s pressure to succeed at all costs comes at us in surround sound, and leaves us empty, spiraling in overachievement, and wondering if it’s all worth it.

There is a better way!

In this session, we’ll challenge the status quo of “hustle” and I’ll show you how to redefine hustle to emulate Jesus, and work with clarity, serenity and fulfillment to transform the way you work and the results you achieve.

Why this topic will benefit Savior Summit attendees
This session gives attendees a clear path to operating in the center of God’s will while navigating a culture that thrives on self-reliance, applauds overachievement and constantly tells us to “go big or go home” and “make it happen.” Encompassing mindset, obedience and discipline, this session will lead attendees to find peace and relief in knowing God made them ambitious, but He didn’t make them to do business as usual.

These are two of the scariest and most dangerous words you will ever say. Every day you say yes to so many things in your life. What if you determine, once and for all, to give a “no strings attached” YES to God? What would your life look like if you laid your YES on the table? What would God do in your life if you were completely surrendered to him? Perhaps the incredible stories of a music producer, doctor, and an accountant will help you take that final step.

Whether a corporate bankruptcy, mass layoffs, the public moral failing of a leader, a natural disaster, or some other emergent situation, you need to be prepared to lead well in the midst of difficulty.

In this talk Andrew will share with you the keys to leading effectively through a crisis, what scripture says about responding to a crisis, and what you as a leader can do to equip and support your team as they work through and recover from the most challenging experiences of their career.
