Mark Batterson: Social Entrepreneurship | E154
Descripción del Episodio
How do you use your entrepreneurial drive to better your community?
This week on YAP, we’re chatting with pastor, author, and social entrepreneur, Mark Batterson.
Mark is the lead pastor of National Community Church, the largest church in the Washington DC area. He is also the author of twenty-two books, most recently Do it for a Day and the Win the Day journal which helps people to build healthy habits and lose the ones that are no longer working.
When Mark was chosen to lead the National Community Church in 1996 the church had just nineteen members. Since then, the church has expanded into a congregation of thousands of people operating from around twenty locations. The NCC also owns and operates Ebenezers Coffeehouse, the largest coffeehouse in DC, The Miracle Theatre, and the DC Dream Center.
In this episode, we’ll learn what it’s like to be a social entrepreneur and run a business supporting a cause. We’ll get an inside look at Mark’s unique and fulfilling career as a pastor, community leader and entrepreneur. We’ll learn Mark’s 7 Life Changing Habits and understand Mark’s perspective on making and breaking habits. And lastly, we’ll gain insight on how to better stick with our habits using commitment devices, and how to create a chain reaction of good habits with the domino effect.
If you’re interested in social entrepreneurship or want to learn how to better tackle your goals and create healthy habits - this episode is for you!
