Ministry in the Marketplace (Paperback)

Become a minister in the marketplace! Ministry in the Marketplace: Joining Your Personal Faith and Professional Life shows how to bridge the divide between calling and career. If you ever wondered whether or not God could work wonders in your workplace, then this is the book for you. Quit leaving the ministry to professional ministers and start reaching people in your sphere of influence! We were made to represent God and touch people's lives and when we don't do what we were created to do we are left feeling empty and dissatisfied. Yet this book is more than just about purpose, but also a practical discussion about how to really walk with God as a minister in the marketplace. Those that are not called to the full-time ministry still have a real calling to reach out to others on God's behalf because we were created to touch the world with the love of God. That does not mean we have to be in a pulpit ministry, but that our daily lives are our pulpit, and the people around us our congregation. Inside this revolutionary book, author Michael Kocurek reveals: - It is God's will for us to minister to people around us even while we are on the job. - A godly definition of success doesn't exalt work at the expense of God's purposes. - We have placed too much of the work of ministry on the pastor of the local church. Michael Kocurek is a husband, father, and marketplace minister who expresses his Christianity through the vocation of professional selling. A graduate of Texas Tech University, Michael has committed his life to communicating the message of marketplace ministry. He resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico with his wife and four children.
