SUMMARY:Business leaders' breakfast: hiring with purpose
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to this free breakfast to learn about how your business can hire the right people. \nTruett Cathy\, the founder of Chic-fil-A\, has said: If you hire the “right people again and again\, you will strengthen your culture over time.” We agree\, hiring with purpose makes all the difference. Being able to identify whether a potential employee is values-aligned to fit your organizational culture and has the essential characteristics needed to be successful in the role is critical to successful hiring. We will explore the principles and steps of purposeful hiring\, learning from a panel of business leaders who are leading the charge in their approach to talent selection. Join us for insights from Gina Breslin and Josh Keefer of North Group Consultants as they explore this topic\, followed by a panel discussion. \n\n\n\n\nGina Breslin grew up in a family business of successful diversified holdings and had varied responsibilities through which she learned the team insights\, intuitive decision-making and entrepreneurial spirit that propel businesses forward. She has been employed with North Group Consultants since 2010 and serves primarily in the firm’s Hiring & Talent Selection services. Gina holds a bachelor’s degree in education from Eastern Mennonite University. In 2021\, Gina was recognized as a Woman of Influence by the Central Penn Business Journal. She serves on the Board of Jubilee Ministries and the Strategic Planning Team at Neffsville Mennonite Church. \nJosh Keefer has a passion for caring for people and a diverse skillset that stems from a background in nonprofit leadership\, business\, ministry\, and real estate. He holds a B.S. in Business Administration from Elizabethtown College and\, most recently\, served as VP of Global Development at an international nonprofit. Josh joined North Group in 2017 and values walking alongside leaders as they realize the effectiveness of an empowered team to achieve a common goal. An active member of the local community\, Josh has served on numerous boards and was recognized by the Central Penn Business Journal as a “40 Under 40” leader. \n\nThere is limited parking at Hub 450. You are welcome to use nearby street parking on Prince Street\, Lemon Street\, or James Street\, which is limited to 2 hours and generally free or at least until 8:00 a.m. (please check the signs). Parking is also available at the Queen Street Garage (424 N Queen Street). Vouchers are available at the breakfast for those who park at the Queen Street Garage. You will need to get a ticket when you enter the garage and then can use the voucher to pay when you exit the garage.

SUMMARY:Discipleship in a World Full of Nazis
DESCRIPTION:Discipleship: more than the title of his 1937 book\, this word announced the spiritual and theological foundation for Christian faithfulness and resistance Bonhoeffer believed was needed in Nazi Germany. The centrality of Jesus led him to speak out on behalf of Jews\, argue against war\, form a “new monastic” community\, and resist killing as a soldier — even as he associated with conspirators and sought to broker a peace agreement with the Allied forces during World War II. \nJoin us for an engaging resourcing event as Dr. Mark Thiessen Nation shares about his most recent book\, Discipleship in a world full of Nazis: Recovering the true legacy of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Mark is married to Mary and has two adult married children and four grandchildren. Raised in a decidedly non-Christian family\, he became a Christian at age 17 and a licensed minister at age 18. Since then\, he has been an evangelist\, a youth minister\, a child protective services social worker\, a peace and justice educator\, a pastor\, the director of The London Mennonite Centre\, an author\, and a professor of theology at Eastern Mennonite Seminary (from which position he retired in 2018).
