Faith Forward is designed for business leaders, nonprofit professionals, ministry teams, and anyone seeking to strengthen their leadership through faith. Whether you’re leading a company, a church, or your community — you belong here.
Our 2025 theme is inspired by 1 Peter 3:15: "But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do it with gentleness and respect." This year, we’ll explore how to lead with hope, courage, and humility in every sphere of life.
