Dr. Peter Battaglia is a scholar and theological educator with extensive experience in university and church settings. He is passionate about bridging the gap between academia and practical ministry, particularly through the theology of work, which provides a framework for genuine collaboration between pastors and congregants.
As the Program Coordinator for Marquette University's Thriving in Ministry grant—a $1.3 million initiative funded by the Lilly Endowment—Dr. Battaglia facilitates renewal and holistic well-being for clergy. Since 2018, the program has served 73 pastors across Southeast Wisconsin through retreats and plenaries. He is dedicated to helping faith leaders flourish by investing in them spiritually, personally, and vocationally, and by building bridges between communities.
Companions in Ministry (CiM) is an ecumenical support program that brings together Christian pastors and ordained deacons from diverse denominations, ethnicities, cultures, ages, and socio-economic backgrounds. The program provides opportunities for pastors to build peer relationships and accompany one another in their ministries. CiM aims to improve their sense of well-being spiritually and professionally, and to foster a supportive, ecumenical ministry network in southeast Wisconsin.
CiM is an outreach of Marquette University’s commitment to community engagement for social responsibility, building a more inclusive culture, and the formation of minds and hearts.

WI+H Board ChairMark Peck is passionate about helping churches and ministries harness business as a tool for community transformation. For him, this is more than strategy — it’s a vision of Business as Justice, where enterprises are designed to uplift people, restore dignity, and advance the common good.
With more than forty years as a strategic advisor, Mark has guided organizations in building sustainable, scalable models that create both growth and impact. His consulting work has generated over $1 billion in new revenue for Fortune 100 companies and mid-sized enterprises. As part of this journey, he founded Apexx Group and authored Integrated Account Management, establishing a reputation for aligning people, processes, and resources to drive meaningful results.
Today, Mark brings that expertise to the local church, helping ministries design ventures that strengthen communities, create jobs, and expand their reach. He also serves as Board Chair for The WI+H Movement, which equips leaders and ministries to bring holistic transformation to their communities.
At the heart of his work is a deep conviction: churches can embrace Business as Justice—launching businesses that not only sustain ministry but also bring hope, equity, and renewal to the neighborhoods they serve.
