    Culture Needs Your Genius: Patrick Lencioni | Episode 366

    In a moment of cultural tension, Patrick Lencioni invites us to rethink our role—not as louder voices, but as faithful contributors. In this THINQ talk, he introduces Working Genius, the six ways God uniquely wires each of us to serve: Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanizing, Enablement, and Tenacity. No one has all six—and that's by design. When our gifts work together, wisdom becomes truth in action. This conversation reframes culture as a shared work to steward, showing how honoring our strengths and the strengths of others leads not only to better work, but real cultural change.

    Our Foundations are the Future: Phillipa Stroud | Episode 364

    In a time of cultural uncertainty and shaken foundations, Phillipa Stroud offers a steady and hopeful vision in In Our Foundations Are the Future. Drawing from Scripture, history, and spiritual formation, she reminds us that true transformation flows from the resurrection and the ancient practices of the Christian faith. Rather than chasing what's new, this talk calls us to recover enduring virtues—gentleness, kindness, truth, and self-control—and to rebuild with confidence as participants in a much older, lasting story.
