Surge Collective
Surge Collective is a private, faith-centered community for couples who feel called to steward significant influence, responsibility, and resources with wisdom.
“Walk with the wise and become wise”
Proverbs 13:20 NIV
Find Your Place. Find Your Purpose.
Surge Collective is a close-knit group of Holy Spirit-led owners, investors, and leaders who are focused on creating Kingdom impact and thriving in all areas of life.
Because we love godly marriages, Surge Collective is also a couples-focused group, encouraging spouses to engage together, while celebrating your individual gifts. The short version — it’s the community you’ve been looking for.
A Community for Leaders in a Different Season
Designed for those who are actively leading and feel the weight of that responsibility. You may be a fit if your decisions affect other people’s lives, your faith shapes how you lead, and you believe success should strengthen your marriage and family, not compete with them.
This community is for those seeking wisdom over tactics, depth over noise, and alignment over acceleration, and who feel called to steward their influence and resources for Kingdom impact.
A Community that Multiplies Your Growth
Surge Collective is built on deep trust and intentional relationships that accelerate growth far beyond what’s possible alone. When you surround yourself with people who walk with you through the valleys and celebrate with you on the mountaintops, clarity comes faster, momentum increases, and impact multiplies.
This isn’t just about networking. Its about a deeply rooted community, one that steps into the hard weeks with you to solve real problems, sharpen your thinking, and push you toward the next level of leadership, influence, and Kingdom impact.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
Inside
Membership includes four annual events, consistent small-group connection, and ongoing experiences designed to support leadership, faith, and stewardship.
Two Experiential Gatherings
Our two main gatherings focus on strengthening marriage and family while cultivating wealth and legacy with purpose. Through thoughtfully curated experiences, we create space for deep connection, alignment, and lasting transformation that extends far beyond the gathering itself.
Business Summit & Behind-the-Scenes Tour
One annual business behind-the-scenes three-day tour each year. We will go behind the scenes inside businesses led by the top Christian organization owners and leaders in the world! We will learn from their like-minded leaders the key secrets to success.
Power Hour
The Power Hour is a high-impact virtual experience featuring exceptional speakers who pour into our members in one of our eight pillars, equipping them with practical insight and faith-filled perspective for real life and leadership.
Solution Sprint
A Solution Sprint is a structured 4–6 week experience that combines expert guidance, peer working sessions, and practical resources to help members make meaningful progress on a defined business or leadership priority.
Discipleship Pods
Members are assigned to “Iron Sharpens Iron” Pod groups that are smaller gender- specific groups of 15 members each. Pods meet regularly to create space for deeper conversation, practical implementation, prayer, and accountability.
Leadership Summit | Exclusive Backstage Experience
A three-day immersive experience featuring guided backstage access, meaningful time with speakers, and powerful leadership teaching. Experience exclusive relational dinners that are designed to strengthen your leadership and calling as you influence others with intention.
