In this episode of Faith, Business & Politics, Justin Steubs sits down with Dwayne Hilty, Neighborhood Center’s Director at the Salem Leadership Foundation (👉 www.salemlf.org), to discuss faith, community leadership, and post-modern culture. Together, they explore how local organizations like SalemLF.org are transforming neighborhoods, building stronger communities, and equipping leaders for lasting change.

Dwayne shares his journey from college ministry to church planting, reflecting on how the Gutenberg Press symbolized the beginning of modernity and how the Internet now marks the shift into post-modernity. Just as books reshaped culture centuries ago, today’s digital age is reshaping how we live, lead, and believe.

The conversation dives into:

• How conflict can spark personal growth & stronger communities

• Why comfort can sometimes lead to complacency in faith

• Discernment & decision-making when following a calling

• Balancing relationships, risk, & trust in God’s guidance

• Why true “balance” in life is a myth

• The role of community transformation through the Salem Leadership Foundation and the national Leadership Foundation movement

Dwayne emphasizes the importance of building neighborhoods where faith, leadership, and relationships drive transformation — showing how his work at 👉 www.salemlf.org is part of a larger mission to strengthen communities across the nation.

If you’re curious about faith in the post-modern era, the parallels between the printing press and the internet, and how the Salem Leadership Foundation is shaping lives, this episode offers both inspiration and practical wisdom.
