Terminating an employee is never easy to do, especially for those of us who call ourselves Christians. When we are faced with this difficult decision is it possible to still honor God in the process? If so, how do we do that? What do you think? Comment below with your...
The holy triad of faith, hope, and love is found multiple times in the New Testament. Many people the world over are familiar with 1 Corinthians 13:13, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” (NIV) Other references to...
The call to the mission field doesn't just affect the "called," it impacts the whole family. That's why this week we sat down with a couple of amazing missionary kids to ask them about their experience growing up on the field. Just try not to smile through this whole...
I hated my food touching when I was a kid. Ok, perhaps I should be completely forthright. I [currently, right now, as a grown adult] still hate [active, present tense] when my food touches on my plate. You know, like when the juice from your green beans seeps into...
As Christians we often struggle to know what it looks like to be successful in life. Is it even okay to have those aspirations? Over the years we've seen the Gospel used to prop up success in harmful ways that scare us away from pursuing it. But what does it look like...
We love to share stories of our missionary partners on the field in a business context. We believe business is a beautiful mechanism for the gospel to flow because business, at its core, is about meeting a need and serving people. As we intentionally add value to...

Her tag read Emily, MD but she looked like Jesus. At our first meeting she sat down right next to me, she looked me in the eyes and said start from the beginning. I’m pretty sure my mouth fell open because she was at the long list of physicians I had seen in 12 months...
We love hearing stories of life change happening around the world among unreached people groups. This week we sat down with one of our good friends, Dick Brogden, and asked him share with us an amazing story from Libya. Reaching unreached people groups is hard work,...
This is a story of a Business as Mission (BAM) practitioner on the field using business as a mechanism for planting the church in areas of the world where you can’t do that with traditional missionary methods. In order to protect the work being done we will not be...
Coronavirus is dominating the global conversation, and for good reason. This pandemic has shaken us to our core, showing us the instability of the things we so instinctively put our trust in. For many of us, the statistics have a face and a name attached. This week, as we watched one dear friend begin a miraculous recovery after a month in ICU, we watched another friend lose her life.
We love this conversation!

Profitable businesses dedicated to God that creates jobs provide for families and care for people in ways that nothing else can.
