Going Beyond Profit: Transforming Canada Through Missional Business
With Christian-owned businesses already making up 71.02% percent of the business population in Canada, and evangelical-owned businesses making up 7.68%, the time to apply missional business models is now.

This could mean over 46,587 businesses across Canada operating with financial wisdom, caring for God’s creation, showing love to all stakeholders, and intentionally serving God in everything.
