Community building is the hardest. It's the work that takes the most up-front investment, it doesn't have tangible measurements and ROI immediately... but it is the most important work because it also creates meaning.

Kevin Sweeney is co-founder and curator of Imagine—an urban church in Honolulu that is truly welcoming of all people, sees imagination as the key to the future, chooses authenticity over performance, substance over hype, and quality over quantity.

After receiving Masters Degrees in Theology and Intercultural Studies, Kevin is fascinated with and committed to creating environments for creativity, cultural innovation, social healing, communal cohesiveness, and personal transformation.
