JOEY LANKFORD
CUL2VATE
SOCIAL SECTOR

Joey Lankford had what a lot of people want in life: the nice house, the nice family, and the nice salary — not to mention the nice stuff that goes along with it — but a nice life also comes with a big hunger for more. About the time he realized it, he discovered how drained, empty, and frustrated he felt from trying to keep up.

Who knew the American dream could cost so much? Joey exchanged a comfortable life, running the family business in the Nashville suburbs, to engage in missions halfway around the world. The Lankfords left behind family, friends, and the familiar in search of a unique calling–economic development within South Africa’s poorest communities.

Upon arrival to South Africa in October 2010, Joey worked in the job-creation and development arm of a ministry called Living Hope. In partnership with a stateside church, Joey organized the funds needed to purchase two 100’ x 25’ greenhouses to use in the training and development of the local poor in and around Cape Town. He worked relationally with those God brought (3 students) from the nearby townships, and together they planted 1,500 tomato plants and used a hydroponic irrigation process to grow superior quality vegetables to sell to local market access partners.

God tremendously blessed the work of the ministry over the next 4 ½ years, and currently, the Cape Town platform uses 13 greenhouses and a crop rotation of 7,000 plants to train, disciple, and equip up to 14 people annually. Joey was privileged to serve with Living Hope and a wonderful team of international volunteers, local staff, and students who are still there praying, collaborating, and working to make that platform all that God wants it to be.

In early 2015, God called Joey, Courtney, and their 5 children back to Tennessee with a passion to engage poverty and hunger using what they had learned in Africa. In May, Joey joined Cul2vate as Executive Director and looks forward to working hard, collaborating with others, and watching as God again answers the Ephesians 3:20 prayers of His people to do more than we could ask or imagine!

BUILDING RESILIENT
COMMUNITY

With a rise in mental stress, supply chain destabilization, economic turmoil and the confusion of misinformation, creating resilient communities is essential. Historically, the Church operates as a convictional community where people of faith care for one another, love their neighbors well and offer a path for human flourishing that runs counter to the ways of the world. The Culture Summit creates experiences for leaders from every channel of culture to connect and encourage one another to lead in the industry and location they’ve been called.

EVENT DETAILS

The 17th Annual Culture Summit will be hosted in Nashville, the perfect gathering place for leaders from all regions and backgrounds to gather. Our two days in Music City are centered at the Belonging Co. venue, in close proximity to downtown’s best restaurants, coffee shops, and accommodations.

FAQs

What is the Culture Summit?

The Culture Summit is the 17th Annual Q Conference hosted by Q Ideas. It is a gathering of leaders from around the world who are seeking to understand and faithfully engage the culture.

Who is the Culture Summit designed for?

It is for leaders in any area: church, business, education, nonprofit, government, art, etc. That may sound broad, but we believe that people of faith need to be informed about what is happening in the culture right now. Our attendees share this belief. They know that Christians must be equipped to meet the cultural moment with love, empathy, honesty, humility and boldness. Culture Summit is where that happens. If you are leading and serving in any context, Culture Summit will help you engage the people in your community and reach them with the truth and hope you’ve built your life on.

Who hosts the Culture Summit?

The Culture Summit is hosted by Q Ideas, which was founded by Gabe & Rebekah Lyons in 2007 as a platform to help leaders and influencers engage culture from a biblical worldview. Today, we accomplish this mission through media and live events designed to educate and equip Christians in every area of culture.

WHAT DOES THE “Q” IN Q IDEAS STAND FOR?

Q Ideas was founded in 2007 by Gabe & Rebekah Lyons as a platform to help leaders and influencers engage culture from a biblical worldview. The Q stands for Questions, and it comes from the belief that an informed, winsome and theologically faithful approach starts with Christians who seek to understand, learn and grow. Unfortunately, the letter Q has recently become associated with a conspiracy theory and political movement in which we have no affiliation. We existed many years before Q Anon and our work will continue well beyond it.

HOW LONG WILL I BE ABLE TO WATCH THESE TALKS ON-DEMAND?

The virtual experience and all talks will be hosted on the Q Media platform. Your digital pass gives you unlimited access to watch on-demand.

WHAT IS YOUR REFUND/CANCELLATION POLICY?

Cancellation: We are not offering any refunds. All digital passes are non-refundable.
