Convergence · August 25th-28th

What got you here won't take you where God is leading next. Navigate what's next in business, life, and calling without losing the place God called you to lead from.

A free virtual gathering for Kingdom entrepreneurs, founders, leaders, and builders who know their business isn't separate from their calling.

As AI, market noise, and mounting pressures challenge traditional business strategies, we are gathering for a grounded, Spirit-led conversation on how to build wisely without losing your peace, family, or faith.

The Heart of Convergence

This is for the leader who can feel it.

You're being prepared for something bigger.

Maybe the business that used to work now feels heavier than it should. The strategies that used to bring momentum now feel noisy, forced, or misaligned.

Maybe you are carrying vision, decisions, people, clients, money pressure, family needs, and spiritual questions all at the same time.

Maybe you are not burned out yet, but you are tired of building under pressure.

You want to know what to build, what to repair, what to release, and what to reorder before you take the next step.

That is the heart of Convergence: Called Deeper.

You should be in the room if...

  • You are a Kingdom entrepreneur, author, speaker, coach, executive, or leader who knows you are being called to more.
  • You want to build business moving forward without sacrificing what matters most.
  • You want a way to grow that honors your marriage and your household as much as your mission.
  • You are building something that impacts more than just you.
  • You care about sales, cash flow, leadership, AI, team, and growth, but you don't want to separate those conversations from faith.
  • You are tired of business advice that edits God out of the room.
  • You are also tired of faith-based business spaces that feel vague, forced, or fluffy.
  • You want mature, practical, spiritually grounded wisdom for the season ahead.
  • You sense that the next level of growth will require going deeper, not just more effort.

The Story Behind Convergence

In 2023, Natalie Lavelock, Katelyn Silva, and Michele McHenry sat together around a small lunch table at a faith conference in Dallas. Different paths had brought them there.

Natalie had spent decades developing leaders, teams, organizations, and entrepreneurs. Katelyn had built a life around publishing books and helping authors bring God-given stories into the world. Michele had led companies, teams, boards, communities, and leaders through seasons of growth, stewardship, and legacy.

But around that table, they recognized the same ache. So many capable Kingdom Leaders were building real things, good things. Businesses. Books. Teams. Ministries. Movements. Families.

But underneath the visible fruit, many were carrying quiet longing:

  • Hustling when they need to rest
  • Grinding when they need to be listening and discerning God's plan and timing.
  • Trying to lead others while feeling personally depleted
  • Building FOR God rather than in partnership WITH Him.

What began as a conversation became a napkin sketch. What began as a napkin sketch became a deeper invitation. And now that invitation has become Convergence: Called Deeper.

A gathering for leaders who are ready to examine the roots beneath the fruit.

Discernment

This isn't for everyone.

This isn't for leaders who want faith as a branding angle.

It isn't for people chasing business hype with a Bible verse pasted on top.

It isn't for those looking for more noise, more striving, or more pressure to perform.

This is for Kingdom-minded leaders who want their business, leadership, family, and faith to come back into alignment.

For the ones who know growth requires making sure the foundation is strong enough to carry the weight of the calling.

For the ones who can feel God calling them beyond success into stewardship, obedience, clarity, and legacy.

For the ones who are ready to grow deeper roots and produce more fruit.
