God-honoring business is at the heart of any approach to reducing poverty. A sustainable job allows a person to feed, clothe and educate his or her family and save for the future. Ethical businesses serve people throughout their communities by producing goods and services that people need. And believers in the business world have considerable opportunity to influence their workplaces and communities with the Gospel.

Marketplace missionaries working in economic development serve at the intersection of entrepreneurship and discipleship. They use their business skills and experience to help local entrepreneurs develop businesses that display the Kingdom and help develop a sustainable, holistic approach to poverty reduction led by the members of the community.
