About Our Blog
This year (2008), the national House Church Conference wants to kick off the conversation early to maximize the interaction and benefit for all those involved. Every major track for the conference is going to have a blog like this one. The conversation here will focus on marketplace ministry, missional business, business as mission, and Kingdom enterprise — all different terms for powering and proclaiming Jesus’ radical movement using the engines of business.
For the past year, people from all over the house church movement have been hearing God whispering to them about translating what they’ve learned in simple faith communities to there business lives to fund the movement and expand our impact on the world. Some of those people have been talking and making plans behind the scenes, but there are surely many conversations and people living this out that we don’t know about. Now is your chance to connect. Let us know who you are and share whatever piece of this grand puzzle God has entrusted to you.
