The Speaker

Rob Rene

After a 25-year career in enterprise technology, four near-death experiences, and a Stage 3 Malignant Melanoma diagnosis, Rob Rene discovered the intersection of ancient biblical wisdom and modern science that would save his life. His heart failed on the operating table - and God brought him back. Now he's building the system so others don't have to fight alone. Rob is the author of Light Code - The 4-Pillar System for Total Body Healing, host of the BiohackingVille Podcast, and publisher of "The God Algorithm" newsletter reaching 50,000+ subscribers.

About the Session

We're standing at a convergence point: 2,000 years of biblical wisdom about the body meeting the most powerful technology of our generation. Rob Rene spent 25 years in enterprise technology, survived five near-death experiences and a Stage 3 cancer diagnosis, and came out the other side convinced that God's design for the body and the tools of the future aren't enemies - they're meant to work together. In this talk, Rob shares the Light Code System - the four pillars of total body health that came out of his own recovery: Light, Frequencies, Fuel, and Faith - and how AI helped him research, refine, and scale it.

Session Takeaways

The four pillars of total body health - Light, Frequencies, Fuel, and Faith: the Light Code System Rob developed through his own recovery.
Where ancient truth meets future tech - How wisdom about the body that's thousands of years old is being confirmed and applied through modern science and AI, not replaced by it.
The difference between trusting the tool and trusting the algorithm - Why AI should serve God's design, never replace it. AI found the science; God wrote the design.
A framework for faith-driven wellness - How to engage the future of health from a position of faith instead of fear, and claim a seat at the table where these tools are being built.

The Speaker

Kristin Dronchi

Kristin Dronchi is a Kingdom Business Strategist, founder of Business by God's Design™, and host of the Kingdom Business Revolution Podcast. She helps faith-filled women build profitable, sustainable businesses through simple systems, clear offers, trust-building marketing, and Substack. Kristin teaches women how to use Substack to own their audience, grow their email list, monetize their thought leadership, and create a trust pathway from reader to buyer, without being a slave to social media.

About the Session

Christian women CEOs are exhausted from chasing algorithms that were never built to steward their message. In this session, Kristin Dronchi shares the story behind losing her Instagram, Facebook, and a 1,000-person community overnight in early 2025, and why her business still had its best year ever. She breaks down why owned audience beats rented platform every time, and walks through why Substack specifically has become the front-end trust pathway for Kingdom women building profitable, sustainable businesses.

Session Takeaways

Why the algorithm was never designed to reward depth, conviction, or a nuanced message, and what to build instead.
The Four Monetization Layers that turn a Substack from a newsletter into an actual revenue engine.
How to turn Substack subscribers into paying clients using a trust pathway instead of a traditional funnel.
A simple daily practice attendees can start using immediately to grow and monetize without adding more hours to their week.

Through powerful stories, practical reflection, and biblical truth, attendees will learn to recognize what energizes their God-given design.

The Speaker

Sabrina Hammonds

Sabrina Hammonds is the founder of Kingdom Connections and an Identity Alignment Guide. She works with established, purpose-driven leaders — coaches, consultants, speakers, founders — who are already visible but feel the weight of growth instead of the ease of it. Her framework, Identity-Aligned Visibility™, rests on one conviction: when growth feels heavy, the issue usually traces back to identity, not tactics. Alignment comes first. She lives in Killeen, Texas, serves as Secretary on the Board of the Texas Christian Chamber of Commerce.

About the Session

Visibility doesn't fix what's misaligned — it amplifies it. In this foundational, activation-based session, we'll ask the Lord to bring to the surface the lies and contradictions we've allowed space for, name them, and receive what's true in their place. This is where alignment begins — not with more strategy or more visibility, but with what's actually true.

Session Takeaways

Understand why visibility only amplifies what's already present — it can't fix misalignment; it just makes it louder.
Through guided activation, identify a specific lie or contradiction you've allowed space for (taking thoughts captive, per 2 Cor 10:5).
Recognize pressure, fear, and heaviness as signals of misalignment — not problems to push through with more doing.
Learn to make decisions from peace instead of pressure, including when to say no to opportunities that aren't a fit.
Walk away with a first step toward ensuring your presence and message reflect what you've been called to.

Previously, she served as Director of Development at a private faith-based school, becoming the institution's first Black Director and a trusted consultant to various nonprofits and businesses. Rona writes, leads, and consults from one conviction: "It's Not About YOU!"

About the Session

You did not receive a calling to stay broke. The same God who assigned the vision already assigned the provision to fund it. News Flash: provision does not chase you; it answers your position. F.U.N.D. is how you execute the role.

Session Takeaways

Knowing the four moves of the F.U.N.D.™ Framework: Focus, Understand, Narrate, Deliver.
Knowing that funding is not begging; it is stewardship, strategy, and faithfulness meeting opportunity exactly where you stand.
Knowing the difference between a vision that inspires and a vision that gets funded.

The Speaker

Karen Hite

Karen Hite, the COO of Committed Mastermind and co-founder of Hite International, is a driving force in fostering an educational focus within the entrepreneurial landscape. Over the past six years, Karen and her husband have transformed Hite International into a thriving digital marketing agency. Leading Committed Mastermind, Karen actively cultivates a dynamic community for business owners, emphasizing knowledge-sharing and collaboration.

About the Session

In this session, Karen shares the real story behind the What's My Gift assessment: how she and her husband JC built a franchise business to 25+ locations and nearly 200 employees, only to watch it nearly break them when JC was hit with years of panic attacks and depression. That season forced her to confront a question every faith-driven entrepreneur eventually faces: are you building from survival, or from your God-given design?

Session Takeaways

External success doesn't mean you're building from the right place, and crisis often exposes that gap.
Holding it together isn't the same as being who you're designed to be.
God expects you to develop what you've been given, and you can't develop what you can't name.
Knowing your specific gift shows you how to lead each pillar of business in the way you're actually wired, instead of copying someone else's approach.

The Speaker

Julie Hirschauer

Drawing from her book Wounded in the House of Friends, she offers an honest, Scripture-rooted path from betrayal and disillusionment toward real healing, restored trust, and a faith that doesn't just survive the hurt but grows through it. You'll leave with practical, grace-filled next steps to stop letting the wounds of a friend define your walk with God.

A Scripture-rooted path to healing — practical, grace-filled steps to move from disillusionment toward restored trust and wholeness.

She's a certified AI consultant and Kolbe™ certified consultant. Mary Jo believes every calling deserves an offer as strong as it is.

About the Session

Most business owners believe their offer isn't selling because of bad marketing, or that the problem lies with their audience. But there are five specific things every buyer checks for before they say yes, whether they realize it or not, and if even one is missing, the sale doesn't happen no matter how good the offer is underneath. Mary Jo breaks down all five reasons people don't buy offers they actually need, with real-life examples of how the tiniest change can turn an offer that flops into one that sells.

Session Takeaways

The five specific things every buyer checks for before they say yes, whether they realize it or not.
Why an offer can fail to sell even when the marketing and the audience are both right.
Real-life examples of tiny changes that turn an offer that wasn't selling into one that does.

The Speaker

Bev Jessup

Bev Jessup spent 34 years as a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist before God spoke three unexpected words into a season of overwhelm: "paint a bruise." That obedience became Creative Sanctuary, a faith-based creative membership for women in midlife, and led Bev to coin the phrase "Christian art journaling" and develop the Spirit-Led Sketch Method. She hosts the Creative and Called podcast and now helps Kingdom entrepreneurs discern their calling, clarify their message, and use tools like AI wisely.

About the Session

This talk addresses the tension many Kingdom entrepreneurs are carrying: is using AI outsourcing what God has called me to do?

The talk opens with current research showing nearly one in three US adults now trust AI spiritual advice like they'd trust a pastor.

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.

Save My Free Seat

  • 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.

If that is you, this was built with you in mind.

As the founder and CEO of a successful multi-million-dollar company, Michele spent decades building teams, navigating growth, and leading through the opportunities and challenges that accompany business ownership and executive leadership. Her journey has given her a deep understanding of what it takes to build a thriving business while stewarding faith, family, health, and purpose.

A founding member of the John Maxwell Leadership Team, Michele has dedicated much of her career to leadership development and personal growth. Her commitment to servant leadership is reflected in the many leadership roles she has held throughout her career, including Chamber of Commerce President, Rotary President, ABWA Chapter President, Stonecroft Women's Connection Chair, and board leadership positions within numerous business and community organizations.

As a registered nurse, business owner, and executive leader, Michele brings a rare perspective that bridges leadership, health, faith, and Kingdom impact. Having worked with leaders in healthcare, business, and nonprofit sectors, she understands that sustainable leadership requires more than vision and strategy. It requires the wisdom to steward our health, relationships, faith, and influence in a way that honors God and sustains the calling He has placed on our lives.

Today, Michele speaks and teaches on leadership, faith, health, purpose, and legacy, helping leaders move beyond success as the world defines it and embrace the deeper life God designed them to live. Having spent decades in business, healthcare, and leadership, she has learned that lasting fruit isn't produced through striving alone, but through remaining deeply rooted in Christ and faithfully stewarding the calling He has entrusted to us. Her passion is equipping leaders to strengthen their faith, steward their well-being, and create a legacy that impacts generations.

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.
