For this week's episode, we're bringing you a conversation that was a part of Acton's recent Poverty Cure Summit.
The Poverty Cure Summit provided an opportunity for participants to listen to scholars, human service providers, and practitioners address the most critical issues we face today which can either exacerbate or alleviate poverty. These speakers discussed the legal, economic, social, and technological issues pertaining to both domestic and global poverty. Rooted in foundational principles of anthropology, politics, natural law, and economics, participants had the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of poverty and identify practical means to reduce it and promote human flourishing.
In this conversation, Acton's Michael Matheson Miller spoke with Ismael Hernandez (executive director of The Freedom & Virtue Institute) and Peter Greer (president & CEO of HOPE International) to examine the challenge of poverty in the US and internationally, and the most effective ways to think about poverty in light of the transcendent dignity of the human person.

We all have our moments as leaders sometimes. However, without knowing it, we get into this Us versus Them mindset that we can’t help but create that self-imposed divide between us and the people around us. This is a different price to pay in leadership that we brought on ourselves. Providing a unique spin on the wisdom from the book, Price of Leadership, Peter Greer, the President and CEO of HOPE International, joins Dr. Tracey Jones in this episode. Here, he talks about self-imposed loneliness and weariness and what he does, not only in his professional life but in his personal as well, to help get past them. As the author of Mission Drift, Peter then gives us a peek into his book, sharing some wisdom on how we can avoid drifting away from our mission as our business goes to new levels and takes on new devils.

Peter Greer Interview
Peter Greer, President & CEO at HOPE International and a 2019 keynote speaker at the Business On Purpose conference, talks about what it looks like to root for rivals, even while our businesses might be fighting for survival. Does it even make sense to root for rivals during a time of uncertainly and widespread economic fallout from the pandemic? Peter shares some examples of businesses and organizations that are engaged in open-handed collaboration despite very difficult times.
Conversation Highlights:
-Is this crisis bringing out the best or the worst in you, your business or your team?
-Partnership and collaboration are the tools we need to survive this crisis.
-“There are no competitors in the Kingdom of God.”
-Uncommon kindness means looking out for people and organizations other than ourselves.
-“Chose the generous path, the path of open-handedness, the path of trust.”
-If God owns it all, that frees us to open our hands to allow the resources God has entrusted to us to flow through them. (Ps 24:1)
-The Rise of Christianity by Rodney Stark. We are writing our chapter of church history right now. How will God’s people be known as we emerge from this crisis?
-What lessons can we learn from the generosity of the New Testament-era Macedonian church?

Now, if you’ve followed along with us for a while you may remember Peter Greer from an episode we did with him on the Faith Driven Entrepreneur podcast.

Peter is going to explain why he believes that leaders in this Faith Driven Investing community can multiply their impact when they focus on collaboration and cooperation. He shares both anecdotal and analytical evidence to support his theory, and we think you’ll be glad you listened in…
