I’ve spent a few days in Southern California with a bunch of really smart people…a few hundred Christian CEO’s from places near and far. It was a wonderful combination of deep spirituality, world class humor, inspiring business performance, and unique perspectives.
Here’s gems I pulled away from just 5 of the sessions – so hard to choose just 5…
-
“(On earth)…there are only two things that are eternal: God’s Word and man’s soul”. He showed his passion for both by letting us know that the Bible museum is the real deal, scheduled to open in late 2017. – Steve Green – President, Hobby Lobby
-
One way to share the Gospel in a corporate setting “Speak in scripture, but don’ t quote chapter and verse”. Also challenged us to Dare To Serve – Cheryl Bachelder – CEO, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen
-
Remain mission true by 1) Believing the Gospel matters, 2) Believing that drift happens, 3) Differentiating the mission from the means, and 4) Hiring for heart and head – Peter Greer, President and CEO of Hope International
-
“You can’t be anywhere but where you are right now” – Chris McCluskey, President, Professional Christian Coaching Institute
-
“We should have calloused hands and a soft heart…not the other way around” – Johnnie Moore, Chief of Staff / VP, LightWorkers Media
And one for fun…from the stage to a guy in the audience that had said he was a hunter…
“You’re a dove hunter? Really? Good thing you weren’t around during Jesus’ time…when the Spirit came like a dove…” Comedian Nazareth
