BAM!
Not too long ago, I posted about how missions is important and how God is moving around the world. This is a continuation of that thought with a different angle. There’s no monetary giving involved in this post!
BAM is Business As Missions and is a movement to get people to utilize their God-given skills (business mainly, but also creative as well) to spread the message of God in countries that are not open to traditional missionaries. Basically, they do what we’re all supposed to be doing. Working, and sharing Christ with everyone they come in contact with.
There’s a conference coming up November 5-7 in California. It’s called Venture ’09 and is hosted by Pioneers. It’s a conference specifically for people interested in BAM, and sounds awesome. The brochure says
Venture’09 is a unique gathering where entrepreneurial, global Christians can dream, connect with other who share their passions and see how their God-given abilities in a professional field can provide economic empowerment for the poor and create an opportunity for authentic ministry in parts of the world inaccessible to traditional missionaries.
Sounds awesome!
I was able to prepare a trailer for the conference. So, here it is! Hope you enjoy it!
