President Donald Trump and the White House Faith Office hosted the inaugural Summit of Faith and Business Leaders on Monday to celebrate what he calls "core values that built this country," which include "freedom, hard work, risk-taking, and above all, trust in Almighty God." 

Held in the State Dining Room, the event was attended by dozens of CEOs and business leaders, honoring those who have donated to faith-based charities. 

In addition to remarks from Trump, Paula White-Cain, senior advisor to the White House Faith Office and a Charismatic televangelist, also addressed the gathering.

While Trump touched upon multiple topics during the discussion, encompassing both foreign and domestic policy, the importance of the Christian faith loomed large.

Here are four highlights from the meeting.
