What is the Collaborative?
The Collaborative provides diverse Christian media and collaboration services to equip industry/sector Christian leaders for effective contribution to the common good.
We equip workers to think beyond the paycheck and find deeper meaning in the place they spend most of their waking hours and energy: their work, community institutions, and the public square conversation.
Work leads to blessing; blessing of others for the life of the world.

The Problem
Our Approach
The Collaborative, founded in 2013 as the faith and work ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Orlando, was incorporated and endorsed by the church leadership in 2023 to broaden its focus to cultural renewal and reach further audiences.
Dr. Case Thorp, founder and principal, shifted at the time in his duties as Senior Associate Pastor at the church to Theologian in Residence to provide capacity to see the work of The Collaborative expand.

Vocational Guilds
Guilds are a means of helping individuals identify with their calling rather than their profession. Our understanding helps us establish a spiritual identity connected to God, not create action or work in order to connect to God. Through Guilds, we establish a new vision for our profession, a view beyond our paycheck or status, which includes defining a new standard of how to work through ethical and best practices.
