Jesus said to go and “make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19), and we help you do that with our missional businesses and not-for-profit enterprises, all based on a triple bottom line: financial sustainability, spiritual transformation, and positive social impact–in other words, make a profit, make disciples, make a difference.
