Where it began.
"If I can overcome the past and believe in the future, anyone can. Dreams can determine your destiny because ‘God is for us, who can be against us.’"
Romans 6:31
Jay carried the weight of an abusive childhood that brought a
revolving door of “temporary homes” and detention centers. He has shared his story of overcoming drug addiction against the odds in thousands of school assemblies, churches, stadiums, corporate settings, and to professional teams—and continues to share it with those he meets around the world.
"The culture changes when you raise up a generation
brave enough to change it."

The next generation - inspired, challenged, resourced, and empowered to lead with ownership of a Biblical worldview.
Student Leadership University & Youth Pastors Summit
More than 20 years as a volunteer speaker in high schools and universities has given Dr. Strack an understanding and perspective to inspire students. Strack speaks to students in the same way he presents to major corporations and professional sports teams, believing that if given the right tools, students can soar into future-tense thinking and influence as leaders.
Decades of of edu-tainment from a high-school assembly to five continents. Jay’s signature platforms gather students - and the youth pastors and educators who will lead them - to become servant leaders through intensive, immersive, behind-the-scenes learning environments designed to produce conviction, competence, and curiosity in equal measure.
From SLU 101-201 America; 301-London, Oxford Normandy, Paris; and 401 in Greece, Israel; and Egypt’s 101-201-301;
the platform to THINK. DREAM. LEAD. has impacted hundreds of thousands of students and youth leaders.

At the Nation’s Capital.
Where prayer and trusted relationships change the world.
Jay's work with Faith Initiatives has placed him alongside Presidents, cabinet members, ambassadors, and chaplains — not as a political figure, but as a servant leader. The slideshow below documents partnerships and conversations carried over decades in the service of one quiet goal: trust, built across the table.
"Trust is built through genuine, intentional relationships
and open dialogue across nations, cultures, and beliefs.
Only then are hearts and situations changed."
— J A Y S T R A C K
Conversations that cross the map.
The Power of ONE
There is always a way.
Jay’s adventures through the decades have brought him to the belief that There is always a way to solve, adapt, create, and conquer challenges and conflict. He decided to go behind the scenes with authors, influential thinkers, leaders and voices in the political, spiritual, business and education realms to ask their thoughts on that statement.
These conversations offer wisdom, perspective, and practical steps from a variety of personalities. Every episode offers valuable insights to apply to your own journey, reminding us that no matter the environment, setback, or season,
There is Always a Way.
