MI310 B.A.M. Business As Mission – 2 cr. (Mon. 7pm-9:10pm) –Elective
Instructor ~ Jared Stayton – Director of Brickhouse Coffee
The term ‘Business As Mission’ is the integration of a business mindset and goals along with the great commission to take the gospel message to the ends of the earth. The goal of this class will be to share how people and communities alike are both positively transformed through for-profit business activities and how we as Christians can utilize business as a platform to develop relationships with others to share our testimony through word and deed in our vocation. We will be specifically looking at ‘coffee as mission’ as the tool for this curriculum.

This class seeks to lay a solid biblical foundation for the believer’s victorious walk in Christ. We will study the dual aspects of the Cross of Christ and the implications of its message in the life of the believer. God’s Ultimate Purpose for Man and the Blood of Christ will lay a firm foundation for the “other-half” of the Gospel – the truth that the Cross of Christ sets the believer free from the power of sin and makes possible a victorious Christian life.

Where do you fit in the World – Evangelize It! This course will be a verse-by-verse study through the entire Gospel of Mark. Emphasis will be on Jesus’ evangelistic strategy. It was not with programs to reach the multitudes, but with whom the multitudes could follow. Men were to be his method of winning the world to God and you are a part of that strategy today.
