Welcome. You are on the "kingdom business" page of EME,

- To provide jobs to believers-in-need.
- To provide skills training to young people.
- To provide revenue for the ongoing work of Christian Mission.

Kingdom Business: Beyond Fundraising!
(Read our Business as Mission / Business for Mission manifesto.)
We recognize and affirm, in agreement with the Lausanne Committee Business as Mission Manifesto, that Kingdom business is much more than new efforts to fund missions. Our efforts at EME Ministries are not exhaustive, but only a part of a wider ministry context toward which the people of God seek to enter and transform society.
We would agree with the following three, "foundational and summarising statements" and the following definition:
- Christ sends us to the whole world to preach and manifest the Kingdom of God.
- The world is in dire need of viable and sustainable businesses which can have a transformational impact on people and societies - socially, economically and spiritually.
- God calls and equips people to make a difference in the market place.
We seek, therefore to aid the effort toward
Transformation of people and societies;
spiritually, economically and socially -
to the greater glory of God

"The biblical worldview provides a framework for work being sacred, for labour having dignity. This concept of work is that it is a vocation - one's calling. … This biblical concept understands that God is at work in the world building His Kingdom, and that, among other things, He calls us to participate in the building of His Kingdom through our work." (Darrow L. Miller - Developing a Biblical Theology of Vocation, 2002)
