Resource Pack #2

This Resource Pack includes:

Kings and Priests by David High [Booklet]
As you can see, this is a brief, easy read. This booklet is about the relationship of Kings and Priests in the church today. I include it, not as much because it contains the foundations of a theological view on marketplace ministry, but because it was one of the pioneer publications to ever address the issue. I don't agree with all of David High's conclusions, nor do I subscribe to a strict redefinition of the king and priestly roles for today, but it is worth the digesting. In this book you will discover the power of a divine partnership between Kings and Priests that releases the Kingdom of God in the earth.

God @ Work by Rich Marshall [Book]
This is, in my opinion, the best work, to date, on the subject of Marketplace Ministry. This book gives a good and broad examination of the issues and the trends many are observing. This publication is an awesome tool of discovery to learn not only what God wants, but how we can cooperate with His plan for the nations, not just the Church. Rich speaks from a pastoral perspective and is a sought after speaker on this subject. Rich also teaches on Marketplace Ministry with the Wagner Institute in Colorado Springs.

Multiplying Ministers in the Marketplace by Nancy Olsen and Charlene Fike [audio cassette]
This is a tape of the presentation made during this year's conference for one of the Leadership Development Breakout sessions. Nancy and Charlene are both passionate and well-informed.

The Hands-On Work of Leadership by Harvard Business Review [collection of articles]
This is the only resource not on the subject of marketplace ministry, yet it is a collection of articles written from a marketplace perspective on leadership. HBR does a great job of providing an easy to read and review format. The 3 authors are each noteworthy in the business community and these articles will not disappoint you. This is good stuff for senior leaders of any organization.
