“Paul went to see them, and because he was a tentmaker as they were, he stayed and worked with them.”

Acts 18:3

WHAT IS BUSINESS AS MISSION?

The Business as Mission concept began with the idea that one’s money-earning profession can be instrumental in creating opportunities for evangelism. 

Based on the Apostle Paul’s missionary model in Acts 18:1-3, his example in tent making utilized his earnings to support the ministry of witnessing to Christ.

Kingdom businesses are being established locally and globally in the growing movement of Business as Mission.  In seeking to be sustainable and profitable, Kingdom businesses operate with one goal, to be committed in supporting evangelism, discipleship, and growth of the church.
