Jordan's Signature Talk:
Â
Aim Small; Miss Small: The Art and Science of Achieving a God-Sized Vision
When our vision is in focus, our error is reduced.
45 minutes
Leaders often carry the weight of guiding their organization through competing expectations, limited resources, and the tension between honoring tradition and pursuing mission. Many leaders are more constrained by past practices or internal preferences than by the future God may be calling them toward. This keynote challenges leaders to cast a clear, faith-filled vision that may seem impossible, shape their environment to support it, make decisions based on the future they believe God is leading them to, and move forward with relentless commitment.
Â
Through Biblical insight, real-world stories, and personal reflection, attendees will be inspired to step out in faith and take action toward the God-sized strategic vision placed before them. They’ll leave with renewed conviction that shaping their environment isn’t just a leadership skill—it’s a spiritual responsibility.
Â
Key Takeaways for Your Audience:
- The necessity of casting a seemingly impossible, but very clear, objective.
- Use the future, rather than the past, to determine the present.
- How to shape our environment to make it favorable for seizing our objective.
- Relentless movement forward
Â
This session inspires attendees to faithfully cast strategic vision and boldly lead their teams and organizations through it.

How Jesus Shaped His Operating Environment
Jesus mastered four areas of leadership, and you can too, if you follow His lead
45 minutes
 Jesus of Nazareth entered our world similarly to how each of us have. One key difference was that He was miraculously born of a virgin. This miracle, along with living a sinless life, fulfilling hundreds of prophecies, testifying to His own forthcoming brutal death, and then raising Himself to life under His own authority, makes Him God.
Â
So why should any of us think we can lead like Him--like God?
Â
Because He came as a baby, born to a poor family, with no influence on anyone, to show us how to lead ourselves, influence others, and change the world, for our good and His glory.
Â
Not only are we to lead like Him, but we are specifically not to lead like anyone else.
Â
Key Takeaways for Your Audience:
- Model Jesus' habits for personal growth
- Influence people to want to follow you when they aren't obligated to
- Lead a team as Jesus did
- Develop leaders to carry on the mission.
Â
This session will provide a fresh perspective on the leadership of Jesus and the opportunity to apply it in leadership immediately.

Know Your Destination
God calls each of us to a new reality with Him to grow us closer to Him. Do you know what your next destination is?
30-45 minutes
Â
Know Your Location
God wants to take us to a new reality that we cannot see without His revelation. But to begin our journey, we must first have a clear understanding of our current reality.
30-45 minutes
Â
Know Your Operating Environment and the Opposition You Will Encounter
When we follow God to a new reality, we will face certain opposition. We have a real and present enemy who increases his attacks the moment we step out of our comfort zone towards the direction God is leading us.
30-45 minutes
Â
Build Relentless Momentum
A clear vision is pivotal. Understanding the journey we must take to achieve that vision is critical. But at any moment, our progress can stall.
Understand what is necessary to maintain momentum and defeat the enemy's attacks.
30-45 minutes
Why book Jordan?
Jordan understands what it means to shape an environment for the purpose of achieving strategic endstates. He simplifies the concept in a way that inspires the audience to take action immediately in their lives, their businesses, and their ministries.
Â
The American Church is too comfortable. America is the greatest nation in the history of the world and has received the abundance of God's blessings more than any other nation. So why is the Body of Christ in America declining while it is growing in places like Iran and Sub-Saharin Africa? Jordan believes it is because we are too comfortable. We need to step out of our comfort zone, be vulnerable to God's handiwork, and allow Him to do "even greater things"Â (John 14:12) in our lives.
