Every day we encounter lies, especially at work. Whether those lies are about money, your worth, or what defines success, when left unchecked these lies hold us back from doing best at work. In this video Howard outlines the specific lies that confront us at work and how to fight back against them.

What we believe about work matters, and when we believe the wrong things, our actions will result in frustration and failure — even if it appears as if we are “succeeding”. The truth is every moment is spiritual, and we are in a spiritual battle all the time — including at work.

Over the past 9 months at The Center, we’ve been learning how to lead like Jesus. There isn’t any leadership attribute or area of we are trying to grow in as a leader that Jesus is not the preeminent example of. And, as we’ve learned what it means to lead like Jesus, we’ve learned what a privilege it is to serve others and that it is a reward. So, listen as the team — Andrew, Carter, and Howard — examines the rewards of leading like Jesus.

Tim Keller demonstrates how the fulfillment we've been looking for in work, in building skyscrapers, in having wonderful spouses, in having lots of children, and in making money isn't in any of those things. The blessing we've been looking for is actually in the face of God. Tim went to be with the Lord on May 19th and is now seeing God face to face! Praise God for all the ways He has used and will continue to use the life of Tim Keller to help us see Jesus.

Every leadership attribute we have is a gift from God, and every opportunity we have to use our gifts is also a gift. Watch as Howard unpacks scripture and shows how leaders must receive before they lead.

What are your greatest leadership attributes? Is it your curiosity, your discernment, your ability to motivate, your ability to see the needs of others, your attention to detail, or something else you use to lead? Where did you get the leadership attributes you possess, and how did you get the opportunity to grow them? I used to think the most distinctive things about a person were earned, now I know the most important things about a person are given to them.

Most people know it’s a good thing to be wise — especially in business. However, for most of us, there tends to be a gap between what we know to be wise and what is actually being implemented day to day in our business, daily work, and leadership. Listen as Howard and Carter discuss how to best implement wisdom in your business, daily work, and leadership.

Are you wise or foolish? Most people read articles and books, attend conferences, and consult experts all so they can understand and implement wise business strategies and practices. Watch as Howard shows how God’s the wisdom of God informs our daily work.
