Download or read book Anointed for Business written by Ed Silvoso and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Business Is God's Business The notion that labor for profit and worship of God are now, and always have been, worlds apart, is patently false. The Early Church founders were mostly community leaders and highly successful businesspeople. The writing of the Gospels was entrusted to Luke, a medical doctor; Matthew, a retired tax collector; Mark, the manager of a family trust; and John, a food supplier. Lydia was "a dealer in purple cloth." Dorcas was a clothes designer. In this expanded version of the bestselling Anointed for Business, Ed Silvoso focuses on the heart of our cities, which is the marketplace. Yet the perceived wall between commercial pursuit and service to God continues to be a barrier to advancing His kingdom. Silvoso shows Christians how to knock down that wall--and participate in an unparalleled marketplace transformation. Only then can we see God's kingdom invade every corner of our world. Readers will appreciate Silvoso's passionate call to men and women in the workplace to rise to their God-appointed positions. The included study guide will enable the reader to put these revolutionary concepts into action.

Download or read book Ministry in the Marketplace written by Michael S. Kocurek and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Become a minister in the marketplace! Ministry in the Marketplace: Joining Your Personal Faith and Professional Life shows how to bridge the divide between calling and career. If you ever wondered whether or not God could work wonders in your workplace, then this is the book for you. Quit leaving the ministry to professional ministers and start reaching people in your sphere of influence! We were made to represent God and touch people's lives and when we don't do what we were created to do we are left feeling empty and dissatisfied. Yet this book is more than just about purpose, but also a practical discussion about how to really walk with God as a minister in the marketplace. Those that are not called to the full-time ministry still have a real calling to reach out to others on God's behalf because we were created to touch the world with the love of God. That does not mean we have to be in a pulpit ministry, but that our daily lives are our pulpit, and the people around us our congregation. Inside this revolutionary book, author Michael Kocurek reveals: - It is God's will for us to minister to people around us even while we are on the job. - A godly definition of success doesn't exalt work at the expense of God's purposes. - We have placed too much of the work of ministry on the pastor of the local church. Michael Kocurek is a husband, father, and marketplace minister who expresses his Christianity through the vocation of professional selling. A graduate of Texas Tech University, Michael has committed his life to communicating the message of marketplace ministry. He resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico with his wife and four children.

Download or read book Faith and the Marketplace written by Bill Winston and published by . This book was released on 2016-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith and the Marketplace is a life-transforming book on the supernatural business of the kingdom of God, and a kingdom leadership playbook that promises to catapult you to the next level of your career, profession, business, or ministry. You will learn how to build your faith in God and understand His perfect plan for your life. Your faith was never meant to be separated from your work or business life. Bill Winston meticulously details throughout this book how the two work together. In God's kingdom, you are either a king or a priest. Kings are marketplace ministers who serve in government, business, education, media, the family, and arts and entertainment. Priests are those who serve as an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, or teacher, or what is commonly referred to as the five-fold ministry. Through a multitude of scriptures, his own life story, and the engaging stories of others, Bill Winston explains why God is calling for the restoration of the unbeatable team of kings and priests to bring faith back into the marketplace, and to advance His kingdom around the world. Bill Winston has served as both a king (in the military and business world) and now a priest, and has been graced by God to reach this topic of faith and the marketplace like no one else.

Download or read book God in the Marketplace written by Henry Blackaby and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aside from Experiencing God, Henry Blackaby has made his greatest impact by ministering directly to Fortune 100 and 500 CEOs, advising them on how to effectively blend their faith with their business. Out of that ministry's success comes God in the Marketplace, a book to help everyone from the front desk to the executive suite best experience God's will in his or her work. Blackaby believes that just as Jesus had businessmen among His original disciples, so may God be calling out businesspeople today in preparation for a worldwide spiritual revival. However, while those in the marketplace may have excellent educations and access to world-class leadership seminars, they often feel inadequate in matters of spiritual influence. God in the Marketplace will help them better understand what the Bible says about integrating their Christian faith with their work lives and provide biblical answers to the common yet difficult questions that are often raised for Christians at work.

Book excerpt: ...He has made us kings and priests... (Revelations 1:6 NKJV) God is showing up in places we have never imagined. We thought He was just for Sunday church or mid-week study.

God is showing up everywhere outside of where we expect Him to be. So what does it mean? We serve a God who is not acting like we thought He should act. This book is an awesome tool of discovery to learn not only what God wants, but how we can cooperate with His plan for the nations, not just the Church.

Download or read book Mentorship and Marketplace written by Matt Overton and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-13 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As time went on, I increasingly found myself longing for a new youth ministry experiment, one that was truly different. I felt a growing sense that if I wasn't willing to risk failure by piloting something new for the sake of Christ, then I needed to hang it up," writes veteran youth worker Matt Overton. Part memoir, part ministry how-to, and part call to innovative action, Ministry and Marketplace chronicles Matt's journey into youth ministry as social enterprise. That first foray into a new way of doing things-via a landscaping company that employs teenagers-has since evolved into The Columbia Future Forge, a nonprofit that includes a full-scale mentoring program. The Forge does something youth ministries, though well-intentioned, often don't: meet the practical, day-to-day needs of teens, just as much as their spiritual ones. The bonus is that the social enterprise model is financially sustainable, in a time when church-sourced youth ministry funds are drying up.Not all youth workers will be ready to dive into social enterprise, but all readers can learn from the lessons Matt imparts through stories of his own experiments, successes, and bumps along the way, and will find encouragement to explore new possibilities-all in the faith that following God's call will transform the lives of the teens in their communities.

Download or read book Fishing Differently written by Rev. Dr. Sidney Williams, Jr. and published by Certa Publishing. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first year of a new pastoral assignment in an established congregation is often referred to as the honeymoon phase, but this can be extremely misleading. Getting the first year right in a new pastoral assignment will actually require a profound understanding of the historical narrative [story] of the congregation, as well as discernment about the preparedness of the congregation to move into a season of transition. Fishing Differently not only offers critical insight on this process and practical examples, but will also help pastors and church leaders access the marketplace for funding relevant and impactful ministries according to Jeremiah 29:7. “Seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you will prosper too.”
