Are you feeling the weight of this moment?

Political extremism. Climate collapse. Cultural fragmentation. People of faith across the globe are asking: "How do we lead with clarity, courage, and compassion in a time like this?"

"Made for These Times" is a free, 5-day online summit designed for clergy, congregants, organizers, spiritual seekers, and community leaders who are ready to show up, speak out, and stand firm in their faith values.

Join thousands of others who believe the role of faith communities has never been more important—or more urgent.

What You’ll Experience

Downloadable Tools & Spiritual Practices to ground your leadership in resilience and wisdom - including a downloadable workbook that you can use throughout the year.

Is this for me?

Probably.

  • You're concerned about the future—and want to lead with integrity.
  • You're hungry for spiritual depth that can sustain long-term action.
  • You're looking for a community of faithful people committed to justice, beauty, and transformation.

This is not just a conference. It’s a call to faithful leadership for a world in crisis—and an invitation to be part of something bigger than yourself.
