Speakers
Lance Redmon
Lance Redmon spent 10 years as a pastor before he ever ran a company. He’ll tell you the two jobs have more in common than people expect. Both come down to connecting with people and earning trust instead of demanding it. Today he’s President of Specialized Building Systems, a Houston-based distributor of commercial building materials, including FRP. Founded in 1976, the company celebrates 50 years this year. Lance holds a B.A. from Rice University and a Master’s in Christian Education, and he serves as president of the Katy ISD Board of Trustees. For Lance, faith isn’t what he does on Sunday while business fills the rest of the week. It’s the foundation everything else is built on. He doesn’t want to be known as a successful businessman who happens to be a Christian. He wants people to watch how he treats people, how he honors his word, and how he builds, and think of Jesus. Lance and his wife Bradi have been married 22 years and are raising three boys. When he’s not at the office, you’ll likely find him at his ranch. On integrity, he has one setting: non-negotiable.
Jeremy W. Stovall
Jeremy W. Stovall, LEED AP, is President of Brookstone Construction, a Houston-based commercial general contracting firm, where he has spent 30 years building community-centered facilities for non-profits, faith-based organizations, educational institutions, and other commercial clients.

He is a graduate of Texas A&M University with a Bachelor of Science in Construction Science and a recipient of the Outstanding Alumni Award. Jeremy has served for many years on the board of HCU’s Center for Christianity in Business.
