    A Mysterious Business: Bringing Ministry and Marketplace Wisdom Together

    When Chris was growing up in the nineties, the shopping mall was a vibrant center of life. He remembers the special birthdays when his "adopted" grandmother, Louise, would take him to the mall to pick out a gift. He doesn't remember the toys he chose, but he remembers the gift of her presence. Today, walking through many of those same malls feels different. They have become eerily empty; husks of what they were meant to be. The skeleton remains, but the life is gone. We can tend to view the world of business through a similar lens: a cold, mechanical structure designed only to produce a bottom line. But what if business is actually meant to serve as a fundamental structure of love in the Kingdom of God? In this new series, A Mysterious Business, Chris Easley explores how the marketplace is meant to be more than a profit machine. Drawing on the wisdom of Dallas Willard, Chris looks at how business provides a container for the presence of God. When we treat our work as a way to meet real human needs, we stop building empty husks and start creating spaces where the mystery of Jesus can be revealed. Whether you are working in a corporate office, a local church, or a home, the goal is the same: to ensure the structure holds life by welcoming the mystery of God and the presence of Jesus into it. As you start your work today, how can you welcome the mystery of God into your business?
