Business Summary Christ followers are aware of Jesus’ commission and calling to make disciples. This includes sowing seed wherever we are planted. ... in the marketplace is one of a very, very few relational evangelist outreaches among workplace venues that understands and values the hard work of sowing seed through personal one to one friendships. Following Jesus’ lead itm presents His message, the seed of transformation in story & parable.
Founder/Director Shaped by 15 years in Nordstrom Management, 10 years in outreach ministry; focused by graduate studies at Regent College with a ‘Marketplace Theology’ concentration and as a staff associate with The Navigators, his passion for evangelistic mission uniquely qualifies Jim Fryett.
Relational Challenge To serve, develop and enhance workplace relations and associations that encourage and reflect purpose of work; wealth creation and meaningful community. Value: Trust opens the way to relate faith.
Solution Create relationally meaningful and relevant workplace meet ups among friends as bridges to consider Jesus; his life and times as Lord & Savior. Values:Faith, hope and love are key factors in connecting to God.
Target Market the Downtown ‘vertical’ business cores where 2/3 of the ‘white collar tribes’ as identified by a recent Barna survey are classified as ‘casual’ in their faith, and among whom just 1/7 are ‘captive’ to their faith.
Outreach Model Deliver workplace messages that speak to the mind of business and heart of the person. Serve the body of Christ by initiating a diversity of community outreach venues infusing work with faith.
Alliances Of the 7+ Christian business organizations currently at work in Seattle business settings, only itm is singularly focused upon evangelistic outreach to business people. Value:Union overrides competition.
Marketing Strategy By word of mouth, alliances among church and para-church groups, ‘commission’ partners and friends, foster social connections and create permeating vertical networks of outreach workplace communities.
Client/Constituency those ‘casual and captive’ Christ followers who desire to learn, grow and discover at work their unique and God given calling to serve the mission of the Kingdom of God/heaven. Value: Purpose leads to fulfillment.
What some have to say:“I have believed ever since Marketplace
Fellowship essentially disappeared a decade ago
that our area has suffered from the void.”
Jerry Brown, Principal, Paraklete Partners
