Financial challenges faced in these uncertain economic times can be overwhelming for everyone, especially Christians who are living paycheck-to-paycheck.

Yet few are aware of the spiritual and practical resources available to prepare them for handling their finances.


Although it seems our politicians don’t have a clue on how to fix the current financial crisis, the Word of God offers the solution to plant, grow and harvest our finances in these uncertain economic times.

Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.


1 Peter 5:2-3 NIV

Transformational Leadership

Forward-thinking Transformational Leadership: Step Out from the Crowd of Conventional Thinking

Transformational Leaders of Influence Make a Difference; Not Excuses

Transformational leaders, who step out from the crowd of conventional thinking, don't point fingers; they point their teams in the right direction. These innovators forward thinkers lead with a purpose rooted in today but driven by a vision of tomorrow. 


As influential communicators, they engage, empower, energize and inspire their teams to overcome challenges and achieve extraordinary results. To them it is not just about motivation; it's about transformation. 


This session provides the insight to GO THE EXTRA YARD and step out from the crowd of conventional thinkers who are stuck in the past and confined to the present. It transforms ineffective rigid managers into effective forward-thinking leaders. 


It's time to take your first step in the right direction. Be proactive; not reactive.  Step Out! Stand Out! Make a difference. Think forward with transformational leadership.

A body is made up of many parts, and each of them has its own use. That's how it is with us. There are many of us, but we each are part of the body of Christ, as well as part of one another.


Romans 12:4-5 CEV

Teamwork Building

Filé Gumbo for the Soul: A Recipe for Common Ground Collaboration

MAKE WHAT MAKES YOU DIFFERENT MAKE A DIFFERENCE! (NOT DIVIDE) 


Building healthy relationships are like cooking a big pot of gumbo. The more you put into it, the better it gets. Like a great tasting gumbo, finding the right amount of seasonings to add to relationships takes skill. It takes the right recipe. Add too much seasoning and it's ruined. Too little and it lacks flavor.  


This faith-based message reveals the 12-ingredient recipe to build common ground connections that thrive on collaboration and synergy. Through empathy and effective dialogues, the gumbo pot of collaboration is stirred with practical insight and Scripture to bring people together with mutual respect and trust while eliminating bias and divisive behavior. 

This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says, 'Write in a book all the words I have spoken to you.'


Jeremiah 30:2 NIV
