Chris Horst (www.chris-horst.com) is the chief advancement officer at HOPE International, where he employs his passion for advancing initiatives at the intersection of faith and work. In addition to his role at HOPE, Chris spends an alarming percentage of his free time tending to his yard with all the loving care normally afforded to newborn children. He and his wife, Alli, have four human children of whom they are even prouder than their lawn--Desmond, Abe, Juni, and Mack. As a dad to four kiddos, Chris has recently undergone a radical transformation from self-proclaimed foodie to a man who prepares far more trays of chicken nuggets than avocado toast. He wouldn't change it. Chris serves on the board of the Mile High WorkShop; has been published in The Denver Post and Christianity Today ; and has coauthored the books Mission Drift , Entrepreneurship for Human Flourishing , and Rooting for Rivals with Peter Greer. Christianity Today, World magazine, and the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association named Mission Drift a Book of the Year in 2015. Chris was a very average student, but he did graduate with both a bachelor's degree from Taylor University and an MBA from Bakke Graduate University. See less
