Description
My Business, My Mission tells the story of a movement that is changing the lives of tens of thousands of people in the most impoverished nations on earth. It is also transforming businesspeople in the northern and southern hemispheres by exposing them to a revolutionary paradigm: the idea that God has called them into mission through business. Through the work of a remarkable organization called Partners Worldwide, North American businesspeople and entrepreneurs in developing countries are joining together to fight poverty. Their mission is simple: to expand their businesses, create wealth, and provide jobs for the poor in Christ's name.
This second edition now includes a discussion guide developed to bring greater meaning and impact for both individual and group reading.
Reviews
"These stories will inspire, challenge, encourage, and equip you to join God in his amazing work through the 'business as mission' movement." —Dr. Ken Eldred, author of God is at Work
"This book will challenge and change you. If youequate business owners or entrepreneurs with greed and self-interest, you will be surprised. Ifyou are a Christian who believes a weathy personis incapable of being a disciple of Jesus Christ, you will be enlightened. If you are convinced the rich care nothing for the poor and cannot play a signifiant role in helping overcome world poverty,this book will be a revelation."—Richard M. DeVos, co-founder of the AmwayCorporation, from the book's foreword
