In this episode Jon and Les talk with Mike Thakur. Mike tried serving for a season in a traditional pastoral role, but quickly learned that God had gifted him for ministry in the marketplace.
Mike has a passion for kingdom focused entrepreneurship and seeks to help others embrace God’s plan to change the world through missions.
Some of the topics we discuss in this interview are:
- Mike’s mantra is “Business + Mission = B.O.O.M. (Business Operating On Mission)
- Mike talks about how his success in business fuels his ability to be generous through his non-profit FT5K (Feeding the Five Thousand)
- Many people go into pastoring for the wrong reason.
- It’s easier to simply write a check and give to another church or charity than it is to actually get your hands dirty and get involved with a cause.
- Mike shares why he thinks less churches is actually a good thing.
- We need more players on the field. Church is not the field; the marketplace is.
