About Marketplace Ministers

A global movement raising Kingdom professionals.

An international community equipping leaders to carry the gospel into every sphere of marketplace influence.

The Tribe in convergence
Who We Are

A council of marketplace ministers — not a typical ministry.

Marketplace Ministers is a global convergence of executives, entrepreneurs, intercessors, and ministers who carry their callings into business, governance, media, technology, and culture.

We exist because the marketplace is not secular ground — it is mission territory. We serve professionals who refuse to leave their faith at the boardroom door, and who long for community, formation, and accountability among peers carrying the same fire.

Members emerge clearer in calling, sharper in competence, more anchored in Christ, and more present in the spheres God has assigned them.
