Speaker: Michael Van Skaik will share his insights as a Christian in the workplace on “Paying and Promoting Like Jesus”. He served as the NW Regional President for First Horizon Home Loans. From 1998 to 2004 he grew the region from 2 to 29 branches and closed 50,000 mortgage loans totaling $7+ Billion in 2003. One of the main reasons for the tremendous growth in the region has been the internal implementation of the Building Champion’s One-on-One Coaching System of which he is a certified coach. Currently he serves as a Ministry Coaching International board member, Michael’s passion is to see the people in the pews experience the same life transformation process that one-on-one coaching provides pastors and ministry leaders. This has motivated him to aid in the development of Successful Living, Ministry Coaching International’s intentional discipleship coaching program. He now spends his time coaching and training others and has led to the coaching of many pastors, elders and community group leaders at Mars Hill Church.

The “Business Ministry” is working to reach both the Christian and non-Christian business population of the city. For the Christians it will be an opportunity to learn (via prominent business speakers every other month), network with other Christians (business opportunities, synergy, jobs, mentoring, internships, etc), and be missional to the city by inviting our non-Christian friends and colleagues.

Next Event: Mars Hill downtown – Happy-Hour/Fireside Chat with Brent Turner

At the bi-monthly discussion meeting we will cover topics such as:
· How do we “serve” as leaders to our employees and customers every day?
· How do we grow and encourage one another. Mentoring, breakouts, etc.
· How do we present out faith in our businesses without boasting in it.
· Is our goal to invest in our employee’s or do we use them to maximize ROI.
· Servant leadership is the foundation of running a business which glorifies God; Jesus is our best example of servant leadership.
· How do we invest in our employee’s and serve them well while still generating profit?
· Is prayer part of our work life? Or just before lunch… if that at all.
· Should our company mission statements talk about Jesus?
· Why does it matter if people know I’m a Christian businessman?
· How do we set biblical standards in our business that may be at odds with culture and/or the law? Sexual orientation, etc.
· Should I only seek to hire Christians?
· Should I make a point to do business with other Christians?
