"Each member in the forum has a different experience to share, whether the issue is business or personal. I can trust all of them and be open with any issue. All the group members love the Lord and provide counseling aligned with biblical principles. I love C12 content on ministry every month. For me, C12 is not about business. It is mostly about life-changing learning."

“I've known these guys a long time, have been with them on their journeys, and they know my journey. When we are together, there is a lot of laughter, honesty, transparency, and wisdom. We meet once a month, and I leave every one of those meetings just full. We love each other. It's unique and very rich.”
- Craig Scheef , CEO
