For Christian business, ministry, and church leaders
It’s Time to Change the Way You Work.
The way work gets done has changed in 2026.
Work that once took more hours, more people, or outside help can now be done in far less time—freeing your attention and resources for the people, projects, and opportunities that matter most.
Imagine what becomes possible when your work takes a fraction of the time.
What’s Consuming Your Capacity?
You have work that matters.
But surrounding it is email, research, meetings, follow-up, reports, presentations, scheduling, administration, technical problems, recurring tasks, and projects that continually require your attention.
The work is necessary. But much of it no longer requires you to be the one doing it.
Until recently, when you ran out of capacity, you had four choices:
- Work more hours
- Hire more people
- Pay outside help
- Leave important work undone
Every one of those choices costs you something.
Now there is another option.
Agentic AI Can Do More Than Answer Questions.
Most people still use AI like this:
Agentic AI changes the model.
Give it a goal, the right context, clear instructions, your files, and appropriate access to tools, and it can work through multiple steps and bring the completed work back for your review.
Think less like a resource you ask questions and more like a personal assistant you delegate work to.
It can research an issue, prepare for a meeting, find information, analyze options, draft follow-up, build a presentation, troubleshoot a problem, organize a project, or handle a recurring process.
You remain responsible for the result. You just don’t have to personally carry every step required to produce it.
As the context, instructions, connections, and processes around your AI develop, that support can become increasingly strategic—closer in some areas to the capabilities you might expect from a Chief of Staff.
This isn’t primarily about learning to use AI better.
It’s about changing what still requires your time.
How Much Will the Old Way Cost You?
Start with time.
Suppose just five hours of your current week could eventually be handled differently.
That’s 260 hours every year—6½ forty-hour workweeks.
Run your own number
Move the sliders. Watch the year add up.
6.5 forty-hour workweeks
And that only measures the hours.
And that’s just you.
If five people across your organization each recovered only two hours per week, that would create 520 hours of additional capacity every year—13 full workweeks.
And even that only measures the hours.
It doesn’t include projects that move more slowly, opportunities you don’t have time to pursue, delayed decisions, or evenings spent finishing work that followed you home.
How much will it cost you to keep working the same way?
Protect Human Capacity for Human Work.
The goal isn’t replacing people—or never hiring additional people. It’s almost the opposite.
Your best human capacity shouldn’t disappear into work technology can now help carry.
People are needed to build relationships, earn trust, encourage others, lead, discern, mentor, listen, pray, navigate difficult conversations, make responsible decisions, and be present.
If AI can carry more of the research, preparation, administration, documentation, technical work, and repetitive tasks surrounding those responsibilities, then more human capacity remains available for human work.
That’s the opportunity.
Why Is Our Ministry Doing This?
We built MAXIMIZE because we needed more capacity too.
At FeedSheep.org, we had more meaningful work in front of us than our time, people, and budget could carry.
Then we began changing how the work got done.
Projects that once required outside specialists began being completed internally. Work that took days began taking hours.
Things that had been sitting for months—or longer—started moving. Quickly.
And the progression surprised us.
What Happened in the First 90 Days?
The change wasn’t theoretical. We watched it compound.
Momentum
In the first four weeks, we moved more meaningful work forward than we had in the previous four years.
More than a million words of our existing content were cataloged and made easily accessible. The foundations for our biblical courses were being built and prepared for distribution.
For the first time, registration and follow-up systems were working. Projects that had been sitting for months—or longer—started moving. Quickly.
Implementation
By 60 days, this was no longer a handful of impressive AI wins. It had become a new way of working—and it was exhilarating.
MAXIMIZE had launched as a product line. Our website was rebuilt. Years of financial and contact data were cleaned up and organized. AI was helping across operations, communications, finance, research, content, systems, and product development.
Long-term ideas that had lived on lists were becoming real projects, systems, and assets. Work that had taken weeks and months was consistently being done in hours and days.
Transformation
By roughly 90 days, MAXIMIZE had launched with the majority of the front end and back end built. Our first workshops were underway, and the first Kickstart was scheduled.
But something else had changed too.
Personally, I had more mental margin. I could think further ahead again, dream again, and pursue ideas that had been sitting.
I also had more capacity to help friends and others in ministry begin discovering what implementing this new way of working could mean for them.
Then we measured the leverage
$145,021
Work that could realistically have taken 7–12 months with the help of outside specialists was accomplished in about 12 weeks. That figure is our defensible floor for comparable external work.
That’s cost avoidance, not revenue—and it’s not a promise of someone else’s results.
It’s work we didn’t have to buy and time I didn’t have to spend producing it the old way.
That’s when we knew the economics of work had changed.
Once we saw it, we knew we couldn’t go back to working the old way.
MAXIMIZE exists to help others make that transition without having to figure it all out alone.
Build a Better Way to Work
MAXIMIZE is more than a training, a course, or a collection of prompts. It’s an ecosystem designed to help you change the way you work—so more of your time, attention, money, and capacity are available for what matters most.
You’ll start with Kickstart, then keep building through FastTrack, MAXIMIZE Live, Ask Max, and the MAXIMIZE Community. Each serves a different purpose. Together, they give you a clear place to start, a path to keep building, and help when you need it.
No single piece is the product. The connections are.
Built for Implementation
There’s no shortage of information about AI. The real challenge is turning what you know into something that actually changes the way you work.
MAXIMIZE is built around implementation. You don’t just learn what AI can do—you identify where it can create leverage in your actual work, build it, use it, improve it, and keep going.
The goal of MAXIMIZE isn’t more information.
It’s execution.
The MAXIMIZE Ecosystem
Kickstart
The hardest part is often knowing where to begin.
Kickstart is a live implementation day built around your actual work. Together, we identify where your time and money are being consumed, where the greatest opportunities exist, and what could now be handled differently.
Then we start building the context, instructions, and processes your AI assistant needs to actually help.
The goal isn’t to leave knowing more about AI. It’s to leave with something built and actually working for you.
FastTrack
Kickstart gives you a foundation. FastTrack helps you keep implementing.
This guided, self-paced path helps you strengthen what you’ve started, improve your results, discover new opportunities, and turn repeated work into repeatable processes.
You don’t need to change everything at once. You keep identifying what can be done better, build it, use it, improve it, and move to the next opportunity.
Over time, a few better ways of working can become a completely different way to work.
MAXIMIZE Live
You’re going to have questions. You’ll get stuck. And as AI continues to change, there will always be something new worth learning.
MAXIMIZE Live gives you regular live access to training, demonstrations, problem-solving, real-world builds, Q&A, and implementation help.
Bring something you’re working on, something that isn’t working, or simply come learn from what others are building. Often, someone else’s question will reveal an opportunity you hadn’t seen in your own work.
It’s a place to get help, keep learning, and keep moving forward.
Ask Max
Questions don’t always come up when a live session is happening.
Ask Max is your 24/7 build consultant inside the MAXIMIZE Ecosystem. Use it to troubleshoot something that isn’t working, improve what you’ve already built, explore an idea, think through a process, or figure out what you may still be doing manually that could be handled differently.
You don’t have to wait for the next training or spend hours searching for an answer. When you need help, you have somewhere to go.
The MAXIMIZE Community
The Community is the always-open conversation around everything you’re building.
Ask questions and get help from your peers. Share a win. Show others something that worked. Exchange ideas, give and gain insight, and learn from what other people are discovering in their own work.
But the value goes beyond getting help for yourself.
What you learn may save another follower of Jesus hours, solve a problem they’ve been struggling with, or create capacity they can use to better serve the people and opportunities God has given them.
A solution that works for you can become someone else’s starting point. They may adapt it, improve it, and share something back that helps you.
What one person learns can make everyone better.
That’s the kind of Community we want to build: followers of Jesus helping one another work faithfully and well, increasing one another’s capacity, and strengthening the work God is doing through each of us.
What you share can maximize someone else’s capacity and help multiply their impact too.
Built for Capacity and Impact
- Kickstart gives you a place to begin.
- FastTrack helps you build out what you started.
- MAXIMIZE Live helps you keep learning and solving problems.
- Ask Max gives you help whenever you need it.
- The MAXIMIZE Community gives you people to learn from—and people you can help too.
MAXIMIZE isn’t designed to give you one impressive AI experience. It’s designed to help you build a better way to work and continue improving it over time.
The goal isn’t simply getting more done. It’s increasing your capacity so more of your time, attention, resources, and influence are available for the people and opportunities that matter most.
Maximize Your Capacity. Multiply Your Impact.
Your Starting Point Is Kickstart
Spend a day working on your actual work, identify where the biggest opportunities exist, and begin building a better way to handle them. Then keep building with the rest of the MAXIMIZE Ecosystem.

What Could More Capacity Make Possible?
Maybe an important project finally moves. Maybe you don’t need the contractor—or the hire you thought you needed can wait.
Maybe the person you do hire can focus on higher-value work. Maybe you get several hours of your week back.
Maybe research that consumed an afternoon takes minutes. Maybe administrative work stops following you home.
Maybe you finally have room to pursue the opportunity that’s been waiting. Maybe you simply have more of yourself available for people.
That’s the outcome we’re after.
Not more activity. More capacity.

The Math Matters.
Your MAXIMIZE investment is $2,497.
| One hour per workday, for a year | 260 hours |
| Valued at $15 an hour | $3,900 |
| Valued at $25 an hour | $6,500 |
| Valued at $50 an hour | $13,000 |
| Your investment | $2,497 |
If MAXIMIZE helps you recover just one $50 hour each week, that’s $2,600 a year.
If it helps you recover three hours each week, that’s 156 hours a year—almost four full workweeks returned to you.
And those numbers don’t include a contractor you no longer need, a project completed sooner, a hire postponed, an opportunity pursued, or the value of applying those hours to work only you can do.
MAXIMIZE does not have to transform every part of your organization for the investment to make sense.
It simply has to help enough of the work get handled differently.

If you’re wondering whether this is worth the investment, consider this: just three months ago, I paid $7,500 to join a very similar group.
What Dan is building with MAXIMIZE is an exceptional value.
The training matters, but so does who you’re building alongside. The right leader, the right community, and the right support can make an enormous difference.
I’m excited to be part of a community of Christian leaders who are learning, growing, and building together.
For what Dan is charging, I believe this is an incredible opportunity.

And After the First Year? $8.34 per Month.
Yep. You read that right.
We could make staying connected another $2,500 decision every year. We could charge hundreds of dollars a month for continued access to a growing community of people, ideas, systems, and shared experience.
We chose not to.
Your first year in the MAXIMIZE Community is included with MAXIMIZE. After that, continuing in the Community is just $8.34 per month.
We want people to stay because the more people keep learning, building, sharing, encouraging, and helping one another, the more valuable the Community becomes for everyone.
We don’t want price to become the reason someone walks away from relationships, accumulated knowledge, accountability, and a community they helped build.
The value should compound. The price shouldn’t.
Why We Offer a 30-Day, 100% Money-Back Guarantee
We know $2,497 is a significant investment.
You shouldn’t have to simply trust us that MAXIMIZE will be worth it.
Your 30 days begin at the conclusion of your Kickstart.
Begin implementing what you’ve built. Put it to work in your actual role. Decide whether MAXIMIZE was worth your investment.
If it wasn’t, simply let us know and we’ll refund 100% of your purchase price.
You decide whether the value was there.
Frequently Asked Questions
I’m not technical. Will I be lost?
No. The whole day is done with you, live. There’s no code, no blank page, and nothing you have to figure out alone. You leave with it already working — which is a different thing than leaving knowing how it works in theory.
I don’t have a spare day.
That’s the honest objection, and it’s the point. One day spent building the things that keep working after it. You won’t leave with notes to act on later. You’ll leave with it already running.
What if something comes up and I can’t make it?
Tell us any time before the day starts and we’ll move your seat to the next Kickstart — no fee, no questions. Full refunds are available up until registration closes; after that we’ll move you rather than refund, because the seat can no longer be filled in time. Email [email protected].
These tools change every month. Won’t this be out of date?
The tools will change. What you learn is the framework and the operating rhythm underneath them, which doesn’t. And the Community keeps up with the changes so you don’t have to chase them.
I tried ChatGPT already and it didn’t stick.
Most people’s first try is a handful of clever prompts with nothing built around them. The difference here is systems wired into your actual work — assistants running, processes documented, things that keep going when your attention moves elsewhere.
What about privacy and doing this safely?
We cover sensible, safe practices as part of the setup — what to put in, what to keep out, and how to think about it going forward.
Is this for business or for ministry?
Both, and they sit in the same room well. The bottleneck a founder feels and the one a pastor feels are the same bottleneck wearing different clothes.
How Much Will Another Year of the Old Way Cost You?
Over the next year, you are going to pay for your capacity problem one way or another.
You can pay for it with your time, with more payroll or contractor expense, or through projects delayed and opportunities missed.
Or you can begin changing the way the work gets done.
