A calling into Business as Mission’s carries with it great excitement and opportunity. Never before has the world been connected at such a rapid rate through technological advancement and dependence upon trans-national commerce. As believers in this day and age, this changing environment allows us to see God at work, restoring His Kingdom to the ends of the Earth, including his heart and design for business to be an extension of that blessing.Within the movement of Business as Mission’s, many individuals are sensing a release to their calling. Realizing that God has gifted and tooled various people for various works, the passionate businessperson needs to be fully embraced to fulfill their call. The Business As Missions Network is a vessel in which these type of people can network and partner in this ever strengthening movement.
As featured in previous Business As Missions Network news, the International Business As Mission’s Resource Team has been serving various individuals and institutions exploring the BAM concept. This established team is now offering a selective short-term cross cultural training opportunity, to bridge the crossing between a theoretical understanding of a BAM calling, to a resourced cross-cultural launch of a BAM initiative.
This limited seat training opportunity is being hosted in the strategic S.E. Asia/Pacific Region (Chiang Mai, Thailand), commencing on January 26th for a period of 6 weeks. Personalized visits to established BAM initiatives in surrounding countries are scheduled during the training to enhance the deepened theory into become practical realities.
Partnering with this unique training, Mats Tunehag (Lausanne Senior Associate) and Glenn White (Business Without Borders) are highlighted as keynote trainers, with additional learning opportunities provided to engage first-hand with experienced business mentors and seasoned BAM practitioners. The course is drawing from holistic first-hand experiences of running Business as Mission ventures in the ever expanding and demanding environment. These investments will be given to personal development, life-coaching and spiritual discipleship.

“The London based YWAM-BAM team has been one of the pioneers of the global BAM movement. They have also served professionally and strategically as a catalyst and a facilitator of the growing BAM movement. It is a continuous joy to work with them and I strongly believe that the BAM training they provide will be another important contribution to the BAM movement.” Mats Tunehag, Lausanne Senior Associate Business as Mission
