SHARPEN YOURSELF IN 7 AXE AREAS

Our PURPOSE is to invest massive energy into YOU and YOUR future by broadcasting professional, user requested life-resources all developed & categorized within our seven patented parts of your “AXE.”

1 - CHRIST'S TEACHINGS Study, retain and put into practice the profound and life changing teachings of Jesus. The essential three that Christ revels will become the bedrock where all your vision and values will flow. Learn how to hear God’s voice and grow in your faith.
3 - CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT Unlock the true version of yourself while you sharpen your own character into the best version of yourself. Skills you can learn, however, character development takes intentionality beyond practice but that of purpose. Find your essential ethic.
2 - CAREER & CALLING Discover the difference between career & calling and how the two interplay to be essential dance partners in our lives. Find the dream you have and love to work the job you got while you learn the process to eventually live the dream and quit the job.
4 - CULTURE ENGAGEMENT Equip yourself to be informed about the cultural problems we in the world are facing. Then learn how to engage culture where culture is not a enemy, where you don’t blend in and where you don’t run from.
5 - CRITICAL THINKING Learn how to sharpen the questions and the tools needed to cut through the clatter and grasp the knowledge you need. In our information world we are becoming bankrupt of knowledge, thus, you must have more then information at your disposal.
6 - COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS Kill the speaker, slay the communicator and unlock the orator. In a noisy world sharpen the skill to be heard & understood. However, do this while finding your voice, not while trying to be a clone of some communicator’s style or program.
7 - CREATIVE POWER Deepen your creative well and unlock the depths of how you think creatively! You will learn to sharpen your process of producing under pressure. Increase influence and positive change in your world through what ever art medium you have been gifted in.

What Makes Axe Different?

  • We are Multidimensional

    There are many great leadership resources out there, most of them are one dimensional – using only one form of communication to interact with you. We use multiple channels of communication & media to inspire and equip you. These tools will meet you where you are, and refuse to leave you there.

  • we are Continuing

    We are constantly growing with new podcasts, episodes, courses, sermons, and your questions answered every month. Books are a great tool, but once they are printed the content becomes locked in ink and paper. Like our universe, Axe is ever expanding. If you’re looking for that, we are sure to be a good fit.

  • we are listening

    Conversation and dialogue are powerful tools for development and learning. We work hard to make sure that there are feedback loops created for a two way street. We can then answer the questions you have. Creating content is one thing, creating with you in mind is the thing. Our biggest inspiration is you!
