The purpose of L.I.F.E. is to develop research, teaching and practice focused at the integration of faith and entrepreneurship across religious and faith traditions. While a few institutions have focused on faith and work, such as Princeton University’s Faith & Work initiative, L.I.F.E.’s focus on entrepreneurship is innovative and intentional. It aligns with the rapidly growing industry trend of integrating faith and entrepreneurship around the world and complements this trend with academically rigorous, practically relevant knowledge creation. 

As part of the John W. Altman Institute for Entrepreneurship in the Farmer School of Business, L.I.F.E. is one of the first academic programs in the world to integrate faith and entrepreneurship. To date, L.I.F.E. has developed a pioneering international research conference, several academic studies, a budding student organization, and an initial academic course.   

The goal of L.I.F.E. is to increase knowledge at the intersection of faith and entrepreneurship and explore how students, entrepreneurs and investors may bring their whole selves into entrepreneurial ventures. L.I.F.E. attempts to give students the opportunity to learn about the intersection of faith and entrepreneurship and examine how they might use this knowledge after graduation.
