Going through the business world with an eternal perspective
The business world can be a difficult life. When we go into the business world with an eternal perspective, the office becomes a mission field. When we put God’s perspective over our own, His will becomes our will.
The calling of a Marketplace Missionary
What is the calling of a marketplace missionary? Our calling as marketplace missionaries is to show God in the way we work and with the people with which we interact. We want people to ask why we are different so that we can start a conversation about Jesus.
