In this book, Rich Marshall helps us understand the role we can play in the marketplace -- our place of work where we each spend so much of our time. As a pastor for more than 35 years, Rich
came to realize how pastors have incorrectly viewed men and women in their congregations. He discovered that he and many others have been guilty
of trying to teach them to do "church" ministry (inside the four walls of the church building)
instead of equipping them for THEIR ministry out in the world -- at work, at home, at school.
 Rich Marshall has dedicated this book to...
"the hundreds of thousands of marketplace ministers around the world
who have served the LORD in obscurity, without training, and without
recognition for many years. You know who you are because God has called
you. Deep within your spirit there is a passion to serve the LORD, and
to serve Him with integrity, character, and faith. You have been
misunderstood, maligned, and ridiculed. You have been accused of
seeking money more than God. You have also been accused of
unfaithfulness to the call of God; some have wrongly assumed that
because you did not leave the business world, you did not enter into
ministry... This is a new day. The body if Christ is re-discovering the
essence of God at work in the marketplace, the workplace, the home, the
school -- your world!" |
