My mission is to challenge, educate, and inspire today's workers to find a better way to work and live- that leverages their God-given talents
is consistent with God's purpose for their lives
that capitalizes on today's work environment
and that gives them a sense of God's peace." Peter and his wife Devonie live in Alpharetta, Ga. with their three grown daughters and son-in-law, where they are active at Northpoint Community Church.
