Explore Purpose Conrad Weaver

What are you voting for? Saying ”Yes” is a vote for the future you are moving toward.

It’s time to evaluate the things we’re saying Yes to. Perhaps there are things you need to say NO to more often.

The Explore Purpose Podcast inspires you to live a life of meaning and purpose so that you can make a greater impact on the world around you. Host: Conrad WeaverGuest: Scott RyserToday's Episode:  At Work as in Heaven
About Scott:Scott Ryser grew up going to church every week but never knew God. When Scott finally dedicated his life to Christ in 1995, he knew he was making a decision about his Tuesday, not just his Sunday. Since then, Scott has spent most of his time wrestling with the practical challenges of living out his faith at work every day. When the opportunity to start his company arose, Scott named it Yakabod, meaning "God's glory," pushing into the question, "Is it even possible for a company to give God glory?" And not by doing church stuff at the office, but by doing work in a way that glorifies God. As Scott slowly made progress, the question became: "Is it possible to partner with God at work every day?" 
At this point, Scott began to realize the Lord plays by a completely different set of rules, and things just work differently in His Kingdom. This ultimately led to an even bigger question: Can a company look more like the Kingdom of Heaven?
Scott is a passionate leader with a head for business, an entrepreneurial spirit, and some basic tech savvy. He's not allowed to write code anymore - but over the past 25+ years he has designed, built and/or managed IT initiatives ranging from small pilot projects to enterprise overhauls using Internet technologies. A "startup guy" at heart, Scott's spent nearly two decades working with a great team to build Yakabod into a premier niche solutions provider. His previous corporate experience also includes management positions with two national system integrators. 
Some of his best strategic thinking happens while he's deeply immersed in adventures like thru-hiking, rock climbing, snowboarding or bike touring. (Or maybe that's how he rationalizes the time off.) Scott is an avid reader and a student of business - but is happy to be done with his formal education, having earned an MSEE from The Johns Hopkins University and a BSEE from University of Akron. He serves a number of regional organizations in an advisory or board role, including techfrederick, FITCI, crossedBridges, New Spire Arts, and Woodsboro Bank. Scott was also founder and lead vocalist for modern rock bands milenine and Cry of Mercy for over a decade - and hopes to start another band soon.
