Marketplace Christianity: Discovering the Kingdom Purpose of the Marketplace :: Robert Fraser
I was hooked before the plane took off. By the time we landed I had filled the margins of the page with comments and my mind was racing with next steps. At a friend's recommendation I read Markeplace Christianity by Robert Fraser. It's easily fits in the Top 25 books on business as mission. Here's an excerpt of the foreword:"The vast majority of the Church is comprised of marketplace people. They lead full, busy lives with 40 plus hours of work per week. Because their lives are necessarily less engaged in church activities, they have been traditionally viewed as less spiritual, causing them often to feel as if they are second-class spiritual citizens in the kingdom of God.
This disenfranchisement of marketplace people has had many tragic effects upon the body of Christ. They find themselves spiritually bored and unsure of their gifts and callings. They lack a biblical understanding of how to blend passionate spirituality with their vocation. Most importantly, they have lost their sense of spiritual purpose and significance."

I have read twice the book titled as "Marketplace Christianity" written by Robert Fraser. Whenever I read it, I feel so touched and completely agree with the concept and context addressed in this book. So when I came back to Taiwan and China, I introduced this book to my friends; however, it is somewhat difficult for them to read in English so I wonder if you publish this book in Chinese as well. Thank you for your paying attention and appreciate if you may reply as soon as your convenience.
God blessings,
