The Undivided Life – The undivided life is countercultural. It is an invitation to live by our priorities in all that we do by placing God at the forefront of everything and then honoring our spouses and family through our thoughts, words, and actions. By being intentional and focusing on our continued growth as sons and daughters of Christ, we can live with magnanimity, authenticity, and joy in every facet of our lives.
Human Flourishing in the Workplace - It’s time to bring life to work and work to life. By understanding the intersection of strategy and culture, we can create thriving organizations that achieve both profitable growth and workplace excellence. This talk presents the audience with the tools and resources needed to make business human through improvements in mindset, communication, and relationships.
Faith, Family, and True Masculinity – In this talk, Jeff helps men connect with their identity as sons of Jesus Christ and leverages their masculinity to recapture who they were called to be for their spouses, children, and others.
Leading a Holy Family – You may have a desire to lead your family in holiness but find it overwhelming to decide what to do next.

Workplace Evangelization for Modern-Day Catholics – Catholics are often unsure of how they can evangelize others in a workplace that may seem hostile to the faith. This fear drives them to “go along to get along,” and they are unsure what other options are available. In this talk, Jeff provides multiple layers and approaches to help Catholics continue growing in their own faith while also providing the invitation and accompaniment that ultimately serves to evangelize others.
Business as a Blessing: The Call to Vocation Beyond the Mission Field – Young adults who are on fire for their faith are often let down when they leave mission work or graduate from school to enter the real world.

This talk explores the teachings of the church and spotlights the works of St. Pope John Paul II.
