That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown!
— Linus van Pelt
If you are like me, you grew with the tradition of watching A Charlie Brown Christmas during Christmas season—that, along with Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and It’s a Wonderful Life. I loved those shows and couldn’t wait to watch them when December came around.

In God’s kingdom our work becomes a manifestation of his love for the world.
— Skye Jethani
I was inspired by this recent quote from my friend Skye Jethani. If you don’t read his devotionals, they are fantastic. This one is linked here. They are not free but very affordable!
I firmly believe this and it’s why A2 has jumped into the business space to help develop marketplace leaders.

I spent last month quietly at home with the intention of getting much needed perspective on the next season of my life. I was aware of the danger of drift on one hand, and of indiscriminately maintaining the status quo on the other hand.
In the process, the key word that surfaced for me was the word INTENTIONAL. Being intentional was a reminder for me to stay focused, to know what on earth I am here for, to live proactively, and not be caught up reacting to the many needs that surround me, and to live purposely the one life that has been entrusted to me, with courage and humility. Continue reading It’s been an historic year for one of the countries we work in this year. Their country has been transformed in dramatic ways and A2 had the privilege of taking a small part in this sea changing season. The country was a former religious kingdom overthrown by a local insurgency which struggled to run the country. The religious groups dominating the nation were constantly fighting back, demonstrating in the capital city, causing all sorts of mayhem.

"There's a desperate need today for business leaders to become Christ-like transformational leaders. That's where A3's marketplace training fills a strategic niche. A3.business is building on a proven track record in empowering leaders for over 40 years. Now they are investing in business leaders who want to transform their communities and nations."
"A2 is one of the most effective ministry organizations in facilitating genuine respect-filled partnerships across cultures to further our Father’s global mission. I have witnessed how A2 has drawn together the experience and formal training of Jesus-followers in one culture with the spiritual vitality and ministry innovation of those in another culture in which the church is experiencing rapid growth to do remarkable things to His glory.
I believe God has raised up A2 to play a rather unique role in God’s promise to establish a people made up of every people group, language and nation to “with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" (cf., Rev. 7:9; Rom 15:6).
I recommend A2 as a gospel-centered, biblically directed, cost-effective global ministry partner."

""There are plenty of ministries to help Christian leaders develop their skills. What sets A3.business apart is a focus on the transformation of a leader’s soul. A3 holds an integrated vision of life and leadership that refuses to separate a person’s calling in the world from his or her communion with Christ. By targeting this deeper level of existence, A3.business equips leaders with a new vision of faithfulness and not merely new tools of effectiveness.""
