Our Story

The Stone Table is a global missions organization rooted in the marketplace. We leverage the profits from our marketplace businesses to fund strategic global missions projects around the world. We also equip and encourage marketplace Christians to engage the Great Commission through books, seminars, online resources, and our business incubator program.

What Drives Us

THE GREAT COMMISSION

Jesus commanded his followers to go and make disciples of all nations

UPGs

42% of the global population has little to no access to the Gospel

BUSINESS AS MISSION

The marketplace is uniquely designed to proclaim the Gospel in word and deed

FAITH & WORK

The Gospel redeems all things including the work of our hands

Resourcing Missions

Jesus commanded us to make disciples. Our heart is to see the Gospel preached and the Church planted to the ends of the earth, to all nations, and all people groups. We have a passion for the unreached, the areas of our world with no adequate witness of the Gospel. Business as mission is one of the most strategic ways for us to reach them. There are places today where people are born, live, and die without ever having the chance to hear about Jesus. We want to change that.
