What if the most memorable thing about your school wasn’t its programs, but how people experience your community?
In this keynote, Jim McKenzie explores why hospitality matters in Christian schools, how Jesus modeled a radically different kind of welcome, and what it looks like to reflect that same heart in everyday school life. Through a clear and practical framework, you’ll learn how to elevate ordinary interactions into meaningful, memorable moments.
You’ll walk away with a renewed vision for hospitality’s role in shaping culture and simple, actionable ways to create experiences that truly embody your school’s mission and vision.
