Join innoFaith and the the NYU Bronfman Center for an introductory webinar exploring how faith and innovation can help solve our world's most pressing issues.

Meet Rayce Lamb, Founder of Faithonomics and Baptist pastor seeking to inspire wild imagination. Rayce, who is also a certified financial education instructor, is passionate about supporting faith-rooted leaders to flourish spiritually and financially while pursuing creative ideas for good. He has just launched the Doers Creative, a digital community for faith-inspired creators, and also leads the Wild Imagination Fund, which seeks to eradicate poverty in his home city of Winston-Salem, NC.

innoFaith is excited to be partnering with Chaplaincy Innovation Lab, Glean Network, and other partners on a national field study on spiritual innovation for social impact.

Earlier this year, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy released a report about an epidemic of loneliness and isolation in the U.S. Since Robert Putnam published his highly-acclaimed and widely-read book Bowling Alone in 2000, we've all been aware of the fraying social fabric in our country and the decline of organizations like faith communities that build social capital. The situation has now reached crisis proportions. With so many people crying out for community and connection, why are faith communities, which have fostered community and connection for centuries and millennia, failing to meet the demand?

For the last few years, innoFaith has been an experiment to explore the people and organizations that are thinking differently or seeking to think differently about how people and communities of faith can engage and collaborate and use innovation to address the social challenges of our time. innoFaith is now at a point where we can do more to help nurture the ecosystem of people and organizations at the nexus of faith and innovation for social impact, but doing so requires more resources. We are excited to share that innoFaith is now fiscally sponsored by FJC, which enables us to raise money under FJC's 501c3 status.

Last month, I attended a gathering of “spiritual changemakers.” Participants at this event, Soularize—co-hosted by Ashoka, The Presencing Institute, and Co-Creative—came from around the world and from all layers of spirituality and religiosity. They shared a common commitment to imagining a different world in which all people thrive, and to the role that spirituality plays in creating that world.

This FREE 14-day virtual summit features interviews with 30 extraordinary leaders, spiritual teachers, healers, and changemakers, including innoFaith founder Danielle Goldstone. Together we will reimagine the next form (or forms) of church & faith.
