Most networking groups are built around transactions, referrals, leads, deals. Elevate is built around relationships first. The luncheons, the directory, and the community all exist to help leaders grow and support one another. Business naturally follows from that, but it isn’t the starting point.

Our membership community is for Christian leaders, and we intentionally welcome business, nonprofit, ministry, and church leaders alike, because the best collaboration happens when leaders from different sectors connect and learn from each other.

It’s a trusted online directory of Christian-led businesses, churches, nonprofits, and professionals, built to help people discover and refer one another with confidence. A listing is included as part of your membership, every year. It’s one of the real perks of belonging.

Yes! First-time guests are always welcome at no charge, even if they don’t come with a member. After that first visit, a non-member is welcome at $20 in advance or $25 at the door. And as a member, you can always bring a guest at the lower member rate of $15 in advance or $20 at the door, anytime, whether it’s their first visit or their fifth.

Founding Members are those who join during our launch, by October 31, as an individual or an organization. As a Founding Member you get our lowest pricing, and you’re recognized as a Founding Member of the community. It’s our way of honoring the leaders who help launch this. After October 31, this offer closes.

That’s fine, membership isn’t attendance-based. Your directory listing, community access, and member pricing on events are active all year, whether you make it to every luncheon or not.

Reach out through our website or talk to us at the next Business by the Book luncheon to get started. We’d love to have you.
