For years Sam Feeney observed the uneasy relationship most people–himself included–had with their jobs. At best, his good days outnumbered the bad; at worst, the bad days prompted an existential crisis. But Sam noticed that not everyone hated their jobs. What made them different?

Cory Sexton pastors Hoschton Baptist Church in Hoschton, Georgia, where he’s served in leadership since 2012. He oversaw a decade of significant growth for the church, including the purchase of a 30-acre property and multiple building projects.

Cory attributes the success and impetus behind Your Church Needs You to the selfless, sacrificial commitment of the many lay members who call Hoschton their home church. In 2023 he created a Scriptural and ethical framework for church engagement called "Heroic Church Membership," which he turned into a sermon series. An eponymous book version soon followed.
