Which variation is described as Christian business professionals becoming effective witnesses in the workplace?

• A. Tentmaking
• B. Marketplace Ministry
• C. Business as Mission
• D. Christian Microenterprise Development

Answer: (B)

Marketplace Ministry focuses on Christians using their daily work as a platform for witness, treating the workplace as a mission field where integrity, service, and relational trust shine as the gospel is lived out in ordinary routines. This approach emphasizes intentional, natural conversations and actions in the professional setting, so colleagues and clients see Christian values in practice and are open to spiritual conversations because of how the faith is embodied at work.

Tentmaking highlights supporting oneself while sharing the gospel, but it’s more about balancing two roles than about a structured approach to workplace witness. Business as Mission centers on using business activities as a platform for mission broadly, which is related but not as tightly focused on the day-to-day witness in the workplace. Christian Microenterprise Development concentrates on starting and growing microenterprises for development and discipleship, rather than specifically framing the professional environment as the primary venue for witness.
