Maximise your career impact for Jesus

Go all-in with your

career for Jesus

Equipping students for strategic careers that make disciples.

Jesus has given us all a mission - making disciples - and we believe our careers have an enormous chance to impact this.

We believe the 3 key focuses are:

1) Understanding Impact

2) Career Choice

What do we mean by these?

Understanding Impact

3) Radical Generosity

Because Jesus’ mission of making disciples is so important, it really matters that we achieve it strategically. A focus on impact and effectiveness is part of what it means to use the talents He’s given us wisely (Matt 25:14-30). Being wise matters, because not all choices have equal impact.

We believe careers have potential for huge impact, so how we choose, and use, our careers is one of the most pressing questions facing us.

And above all, to have any impact, we must remain in Jesus (John 15:5).

Career choice

Whilst we acknowledge that many are called otherwise, we do believe that three career routes are particularly strategic for making disciples.

We encourage you to prayerfully consider these:

1) Gospel patronage: Those fueling gospel work by pursuing high earning careers and giving sacrificially.

2) Full Time Ministry: Those preaching, discipling, and leading in paid ministry.

3) Discipling culture: Those shaping culture and institutions to pave the way for the gospel.

Radical generosity

In our quest for using our careers to make disciples, money is one of the biggest opportunities - and biggest dangers - facing each of us. It has potential to transform the world; it also has the potential to corrupt our hearts.

A radical and sacrificial generosity is the solution - and it’s something God calls us to now.

Inspired by a famous John Wesley sermon, we suggest “get all you can, keep as little as you can, and give as effectively as you can”.

THOSE WHO abide in me and i in them bear much fruit

john 15:5

What we do:

We are building a movement of students seeking to go all-in for God with their careers. Primarily this involves running events in universities through our student-led committees, as well as speaking in churches and CUs and connecting students to mentors.
