For far too long success in business has been portrayed as being insignificant to our lives as Christians. The consequence of this has led to a secular world bereft of the values that come from God, and the Christian Church impoverished from the skill sets of her most powerful leaders. What would a world look like if it was led by people of faith? And what would our church look like if her valiant ideals could be embodied by powerful leaders? What would our lives look like, our families look like, if they were led by faith? Today's guest has dedicated his ministry to working out an effective answer to these questions. From his upbringing as a laborer and entrepreneur in his native Northwest Ohio, to his years of study and prayer in religious life, Father Nathan Cromly has sought to bring the power of faith to meet the power of the world and the power of the world to bow before the power of the faith. His writings, his presentations, and his work in founding and leading the Saint John Institute have blazed an innovative and unique pathway forward for every Christian who wonders what difference their faith makes in the world, and what use God could have for their talents and their passions.

Our speaker is filled with the conviction that God so loves the world that He has summoned you and I to lead it back to Him. He is here to inspire us to greatness and to challenge us to Dare Great Things for Christ™! And so, it is my pleasure to introduce to you today our speaker Father Nathan Cromley.
