  • Summary

  • Episode Description: Are you a leader who seeks to build a business that honors God in all areas? Our guest this week is Mike Sharrow, President and CEO of C12 Business Forums. Mike is someone who has wrestled with this question and helps Christian business owners that find themselves on a similar journey. Through his work with C12, Mike is encouraging and challenging others with the message that “God cares about what you do, why you do it, how you do it, and what it accomplishes.”   As Christian leaders, we are called to integrate our faith and our work with excellence. In order to build a God-honoring business, Mike shares about the importance of the alignment of an organization’s mission with the essential components of operating a company. Often, a leader may feel isolated throughout this process. C12 exists to meet that need by helping leaders find a community for mutual encouragement.   On this episode, you will hear Mike and Bobby discuss:
    • How to build a good business AND live out your purpose in Christ.
    • Navigating this cultural and generational moment.
    • Cultivating a “Buffalo Culture” that runs into the storms that businesses encounter.
    • The reality of business as an amazing frontier for ministry.
