Anointed for Business

In this bestselling book, Ed Silvoso invites the Church to engage with the heart of our cities: the marketplace. With biblical examples and extraordinary true stories, he shows us how to knock down the perceived wall between commercial pursuit and service to God--and participate in an unparalleled marketplace transformation. Includes a personal study guide. 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.
