In
this groundbreaking book, economist Steve Rundle and missiologist Tom
Steffen offer a new paradigm for the convergence of business and
missions--the Great Commission Company. These companies intentionally create
businesses in strategic locations, pursuing profits while remaining
unabashedly Christian in their purpose. By establishing authentic businesses
that employ local workers among the least-reached peoples of the world, they
contribute to the economic health of the immediate community and also
provide avenues for both physical and spiritual ministry.
Based on a five-year study of innovative companies like Pura Vida Coffee,
this volume offers keen analysis of the principles and practices of these
companies. In an era where multinational corporations have global influence
and impact, the Great Commission
Company opens up new possibilities for missions-minded entrepreneurs and
businesspeople who want to change the world to the glory of God.
"This a remarkable book. Two street-smart business professionals grounded in
a contemporary holistic biblical theology have demonstrated that
income-producing businesses managed by 'kingdom professionals' can play a
central, essential role in extending Christ's kingdom worldwide. Rundle and
Steffen have plowed much-needed, new ground for all who take the kingdom
seriously."
