Missional Marketplace
A Missional Approach to the Marketplace asks what it would look life if “normal” Christians were to consider that it is God’s plan for them to carry out their missional calling within the marketplace and not in spite of it. This book invites church planters to approach the marketplace as a mission field and find ways to address the concerns of people who spend the majority of their day at work. This approach integrates faith and work to reach people who are not coming to traditional churches. Dr. Moon’s book is available as a free download below.
