You don’t want to waste your life, do you? You don’t want to
squander your time, talent and resources!
No, you want to crush your goals for the King of Kings…
…impact the world for Jesus…
…and someday hear God say,
“Well done, good and faithful servant!”
The problem is that, on the one hand, you don’t hear Christian
preachers and Bible teachers talk enough about the
importance of having a vision for your life, working
hard, embracing excellence, and developing
character qualities like (holy) ambition,
focus, discipline, and determination.
On the other hand, Christians who are committed to personal development often run into difficulty finding resources
that are faithful to God’s Word.
More often than not, the books you find in the “Self-help” section of the bookstore are full of pop psychology, New Age
mumbo jumbo, and philosophies that are not compatible with the Bible.
If that’s a problem you face….I get it.
I was an evangelical pastor for 10 years. I had a great experience serving a church. But looking back, I have so much regret.
Sure, I had authentic faith. I loved my people. I tried to serve them. I made it a point to faithfully teach God’s Word to them.
But I know now that my standards could have been exponentially higher! If I would have understood how important it is
for Christians to pursue excellence as an act of worship before God…
…God could have used me to do SO MUCH MORE.
And to be honest…it cuts me like a knife to know that.
Thankfully, after I left the ministry, I felt God calling me into the world of entrepreneurship and personal development.
Through a series of providential events, I ended up meeting a successful, 9-figure entrepreneur and became the co-host of his wildly popular business and success podcast. (The show was #1 in the business category on iTunes for a record 36 weeks!)
In addition, I began helping him develop his personal brand. I had already served as a ghostwriter, magazine writer and editor, and adjunct instructor in writing and public speaking. But working with him, I began to further develop skills in content creation, personal branding, and social media marketing.
Most of all, though, he pushed me HARD - to maximize my potential in every area of my life. He was – and is – a very intense man; and while it was hard to get chewed out sometimes, I knew that he was driving
me to level up in every area of my life.
That’s exactly what I did. I helped him create a handful of
multi-million-dollar projects and programs – from a series of children’s books to a virtual community for entrepreneurs.
Under his guidance, I made six figures for the first time in my life. From there, I developed my own consulting company, took on coaching clients, and even wrote my first book.
It’s called Sacred Drive: Biblical Principles for Pursuing Your God-Given Potential.
And you know why I wrote it?
Because throughout my journey in entrepreneurship and
personal development, as the co-host of that successful
podcast, I got asked the same questions again and again:
"I know Vaughn from MFCEO and REAL AF and always loved him on that podcast and have been a big fan of his work for years. I bought this books as soon as I heard about it and was not disappointed. This is probably one of my favorite books in this genre of excellence and God. If you’re a Christian, you should read this. If you want to be the best person you can be, you should read this. If you’re both, you should definitely read it!"
-Luke
"An excellent read for those no matter where they are on their spiritual journey — but especially for those who seek God and his message in their journey and purpose on this Earth. Vaughn weaves together stories from his life, pop culture, business, and more with Biblical principles that align with leadership qualities. A really great read that’s worthy anyone’s time: a leadership development book rooted in God’s word."
-Brandy
The one constructive criticism that I heard a lot was, “We want MORE.”
“Vaughn, can you go beyond the book to provide something else? Something that will provide the catalyst for continuing to pursue our God-given potential?”
That’s why I started Empowered Fellowship.
Originally, Empowered Fellowship was designed to be a virtual community that provided the content and connections necessary to help Christians keep pursuing their God-given potential.
However, in an effort to over-deliver and provide even greater value, five months after I founded Empowered Fellowship, I added another dimension to the community.
I decided that it wasn’t enough to help people pursue their God-given potential.
I needed to take what I had learned in my life and business experience, and train people to influence others, to show them how to capture the hearts and minds of other men and women in their own neighborhood and across the world.
In other words, I needed to help our members build their personal brands, hone their writing and speaking skills, and master the art and science of influence…
…so that more and more people would pursue their God-given potential…
…not just for their own gain…
…but for the glory of God and the good of the world!

Imagine a new wave of Christians who maximized their God-given potential in every area of their lives…
From family and friendship…to fitness and finances.
How do you think that would transform the world?
Listen…if this isn’t clear to you yet, let me make it crystal clear:
Empowered Fellowship is not a mastermind that will teach you to scale your business to 9-figures or provide a program for achieving optimal physical fitness.
Rather, it is a community of men and women who want to be faithful overachievers, staying close to God as they crush their goals and achieve their dreams.
In addition, it’s a community meant to train people to be effective, God-centered, grace-empowered Christian influencers who will impact the world for Jesus.
For this reason, the main purpose of Empowered Fellowship is to teach the biblical principles that promote excellence in every area of life; and to provide a group of driven, God-centered peers who will offer encouragement and accountability to help you get more out of yourself….
…make the most of your life.
…and make the biggest impact possible on the greatest number of people.
I can truly say that this is a one-of-a-kind Christian community.
We believe excellence is a form of evangelism.
We believe winning is a way of worship.
This community just started in June 2021.
This movement is in its early stages.
But we’re already growing in number and growing strong.
If you are a man or woman who truly wants to make the most of your life…
…who wants to pursue your God-given potential every day…
…and elevate your God-honoring influence…
…not just for your own gain…
…but for the glory of God and good of the world…
…then you’re our kind of person.
We’d be honored if you would join us.
