Book Description
Can you imagine millions of acres of grain ripened for the harvest with thousands of laborers seeking to gather in the crop by hand? What would happen if a large shipment of combines were suddenly delivered? We know the grain ripe unto harvest represents those in several thousand people, ethnic, and language groups who have not yet heard the Gospel message. But what if those combines were businesses that could be used as vehicles and platforms for building relationships? Galtronics is one such business and its story will both encourage and enlighten you as to how a man and a woman turned an idea into a global business for the express purpose of sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We hope by the time you finish reading this book you will better understand the potential of using your profession and/or business as a great combine to bring in the harvest.

Anointed for Business
Author: Ed Silvoso
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1441268731
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Every Business Is God's Business The notion that labor for profit and worship of God are now, and always have been, worlds apart, is patently false. The Early Church founders were mostly community leaders and highly successful businesspeople. The writing of the Gospels was entrusted to Luke, a medical doctor; Matthew, a retired tax collector; Mark, the manager of a family trust; and John, a food supplier. Lydia was "a dealer in purple cloth." Dorcas was a clothes designer. In this expanded version of the bestselling Anointed for Business, Ed Silvoso focuses on the heart of our cities, which is the marketplace. Yet the perceived wall between commercial pursuit and service to God continues to be a barrier to advancing His kingdom. Silvoso shows Christians how to knock down that wall--and participate in an unparalleled marketplace transformation. Only then can we see God's kingdom invade every corner of our world. Readers will appreciate Silvoso's passionate call to men and women in the workplace to rise to their God-appointed positions. The included study guide will enable the reader to put these revolutionary concepts into action.
