C12 has made a tremendous impact on both me and my company.  Before joining C12, I never thought of the company as God’s business nor a ministry platform.  C12 has given us that perspective and the formal framework for running the business as Christ would.  The other great benefit I’ve received is getting to know others and the Godly counsel that special circle of friends has provided.  C12 has truly been a blessing and is making a positive impact at Chandler-May.

Jesse May, CEO
Chandler-May, Inc.

C12 is the best decision we’ve made in the 11 years we’ve been in business.  The business tools provided through C12 are bullet proof and work.  As a business owner C12 provides me a time to be intentional about building God’s ministry in our company.

Brandon Tate, Owner
Atlantic Wireless

My C12 experience has been a real blessing in that it helps me put first things first and meets three basic needs for a business owner: (1) solid direction on how to run my business in a God-honoring way with challenging materials, (2) a ‘board of directors’ for my business that have my best interest at heart, and (3) a C12 Chair, leader and mentor that not only provides solid business counsel but also is a trusted friend that prays for me, my family and my business.

Mike Aman, Owner
One Source Communications

I started my business 11 years ago with God as my partner; but along the way, I got busy and had some success.  C12 is helping reconnect me with my original vision and remind me that God is still (and always has been) my partner.

C12 has led to wonderful things in the business, personal, financial and spiritual fronts, things I don’t feel I could have gotten from a “business only” group or even from the great schools I’ve attended (Harvard Business School).  Little did I know how much of a difference the C12 perspective would make on the non-business parts of my life as well.  I am very grateful every day for each C12 member in my local group.

Jon F. Paul, President
Value Added Finance Resources

The C12 Group materials are so relevant to my situation. Unlike theoretical courses, I can implement ideas from our group segments when I get back into the office the next day!  Where else can you go to discuss the issues you face on a day-to-day basis with other Christian CEOs who know what it’s like to walk in your shoes?

Michael Webster, CEO
M & S Flooring

The wisdom I receive from my C12 peer group and the challenge to dig deeper into His word to come up with the right solutions for every dilemma I face has been imperative to grow me in my Christian walk, as well as increase the true "fruitfulness" of my organization.

C12 has profoundly impacted my view of my role and responsibility as a Christian in business.

Dave Dunkel, Chairman & CEO
Kforce, Inc. [NASDAQ]

The job of CEO can be a very lonely existence.  The greatest benefit to me has been the ability to seek solace in the fact that so many others face the same day-to-day decisions and pressures that I do.  More important is the ability to be with a group dedicated to building God’s kingdom versus a corporate kingdom.  I have found friendship, accountability, advice, support, wisdom, mentoring and, most importantly, prayer in my C12 Group.  I have been so very blessed to be invited to join this group of wonderful people and learn from them.

Dave Otterson, President/CEO
WestWind Corporation

Participation in C12 Group has been a compass that has kept me on course as a Christian, husband, father and CEO.  C12 relationships are pure gold.

Marty Morris, Owner/CEO
Sunbelt Lubricants

C12 has helped me to be a more effective Christian and better businessman.  In one meeting I saved enough to pay for 10 years of membership.

Steve Wilson, President
Hide-Away Storage Services, Inc.

God is changing the way we do business and its beginning to show.

John Martin, Owner
Emporia Farms

I’ve found C12 to be an excellent resource for personal, spiritual and business issues.  The camaraderie and support that my monthly group provides is unmatched.  I can raise specific business issues, offer up prayer requests, or listen to how others run their Christian businesses, just to name a few of the many benefits that C12 provides.

Gene Kaiser, VP & General Manager
Holland Transportation Management Services

C12 has become a cornerstone of my business and spiritual life.

Darryl Lanker, CEO/Owner
Bedrock Resources, Inc.

C12 has been the best business consultant we’ve ever been associated with.  Biblical teaching incorporated with the collective business knowledge of other members is priceless…our ministry is growing every year.

Bart Azarelli, Jr., CEO
Dallas 1 Construction & Development, Inc.

God has used my five years in C12 to sharpen me as a servant leader, to hone my business skills and to focus me on the power of marketplace ministry.
The relationships I have formed with my fellow C12 members have been lifesavers for me- professionally and personally.  They are indeed “iron sharpening iron.”
 
My time at my C12 meeting each month is invariably some of the most valuable time I spend on my business. I come out of every meeting a better business leader and a better disciple of Christ.
 
Janet Ward Black, CEO
Ward Black Law

C12 offers an arena of business owners who love God and desire to operate their businesses according to His instructions.  What awesome ground for support accountability and growth!

Markey Austin, President
Community Marketing Services, Inc.

C12 is a great real world MBA, board of directors and R&D lab woven into one…a life preserver in times of treading water, a mirror to face in accountability, and a tool I would not part with.  The raw, safe and joyful support from a group of Christian business owners is rare.  There is no safer place to struggle with business, personal and spiritual issues than C12.

David Dial, Principal/Owner
Living Stones Architecture

I was immediately challenged to grow with more spirituality and purpose.  There have already been great strides taken to help me become a better Christian businessman after only two months…the insight and wisdom from my fellow members is proving to be an invaluable resource.

Charlie Brown, President/Owner
Precision Plumbing

I started my business 11 years ago with God as my partner; but along the way, I got busy and had some success.  C12 is helping reconnect me with my original vision and remind me that God is still (and always has been) my partner.

Beth Monaghan, Founder/CEO
Monaghan Group

C12 is an awesome organization.  I’ve hired consultants in the past…none of them seem to care as much or even be as on target as C12.  I’ve never had a consultant remind me that I’m a steward of the company and God owns it all.

Mike Thomas, President/Owner
Twin States Equipment

I wanted to have a more rounded business perspective.  In my first C12 meeting I walked away with no less than 12 new and fresh ideas and also a sense of ‘partnership’ with the other members.  It was such a blessing to hear real life examples of how others dealt with some of the same types of situations as I was addressing.

Tim Cool, VP & General Manager
Cogun, Inc.

C12 has changed the entire direction of my company.  We have made the transition froma greedy, profit-centered company to one that is Christ-centered.  After seven years of C12 I realize that eternal fruit is the only thing that will last.  I do not expect the Lord to ask for my balance sheet.  It is now my joy to share with other business leaders that the Lord is the real CEO of all of our companies.

Wing Hughes, Owner/CEO
Forrester-Smith, Inc.

C12 has brought a new paradigm to the way we operate our business.  C12 ideas regarding hiring policies, employee evaluations, company goals, compensation plans, company ministry and customer service are invaluable.

Vern Nelson, CEO
Nelson Publishing

C12 is nutrition for the soul of business.
