Welcome Andy O'Neil, IRC Operations Manager

We are excited to have Andy O'Neil join the IRC team and thought you might like to get to know him a little better....

Q: How did you first connect with IRC?

A: I learned about Rick Boxx and his work at IRC a few months ago in connection with the “God as CEO” event in Overland Park. I wasn’t able to attend, but a friend at church told me he knew Rick and that he was hiring. He passed along my resume and now, as they say...the rest is history!

Q: What are you most looking forward to in this new role?

A: From the moment I read the position description for this role, I knew that it was a perfect fit for my experience and skill set. I even had past bosses telling me that it was the perfect job for me. I’m excited to use my past experience in online and event operations to help further the work that God is doing through Integrity Resource Center.

Q: Where did you grow up?

A: I spent the first 22 years of my life in Springfield, Missouri. After graduating from Missouri State University, I moved to Stillwater, Oklahoma to pursue a Master’s degree at Oklahoma State University. I moved to Arkansas to work for the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service and then four and a half years later began work for Ron Hutchcraft Ministries. Then I moved to the Kansas City area to take a job with Elanco Animal Health before coming on board with Integrity Resource Center. My career has been quite a journey, and I’d say I’ve been growing up all along the way. So, I guess I have grown up in Missouri, Oklahoma, and Arkansas :-)

Q: Tell us about your family?

A: I am married to my best friend Trisha and we have a beautiful and brilliant four year old daughter.

Thanks for sharing Andy! Connect with Andy on Linked In.

Pastors Equipping Others for the Workplace David Frech of Church of the Harvest in Olathe (right)Troy Campbell of New Life Ministries in downtown Kansas City (left) At the FIRE in the Workplace Banquet we  celebrated two pastors who have been equipping and encouraging the saints to live out their faith in their workplace. Both of these pastors came to the city about fifteen years ago. Both became church planters, Troy in an urban setting and David in the suburbs.

FIRE Banquet - Excellence in the Workplace - Dr. Betsy Wickstrom Many people provide quality products or services, but few use their God given talents in a way that not only demonstrates excellence, but also brings glory to God. Our next story is about a doctor who asked God at 12 years old what she was to do with her life.   At that time she believed the answer would involve theater or music, but instead God made it clear that she was to be a doctor.

FIRE Banquet - Relationships in the Workplace - Sheri Rehmer In the FIRE acronym, the R stands for relationships, with God and with others. Jesus proclaimed that the two greatest commandments are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, strength, and soul and to love others as ourselves. In college, Sheri was invited to a Fellowship of Christian Athletes Huddle meeting that changed her perspective on religion and her life.

FIRE Banquet - Integrity in the Workplace - Jason Froelich In the business world, it’s not uncommon to make ethical decisions based on fear; fear of losing a job, offending someone, or fear of some other consequence, rather than doing what God expects. This story is about a man who has determined to live his life with integrity, in accordance with God’s directives, even when it might come at personal cost or consequences. Jason is a young man who has used his God given accounting and financ...
