Aged seventeen, Olly was confused. He was passionate about people meeting Jesus, yet felt God had gifted him with skills for business. So Olly sought advice from his mentor - who told him “read the bible, no one works in business to fund Christian ministry. The real heroes are evangelists like Paul,”.

Shortly after, Olly learned this was FALSE. He was invited along to an event exploring gospel patronage. This was filled with business people sacrificially serving Jesus.

Fast forward 3 years, the idea of God using his secular career to serve God lay dormant. Then, at a Christian festival, Olly heard a speaker speak on radical generosity. Through this, God made it clear. Others too must be confused about money and secular careers.

Olly chatted this through with some like-minded friends. They all felt that they should run events exploring using careers to serve God with their money, time and expertise. So two years ago, Fruitful Work Cambridge was born.

Today, they’ve all graduated. The Cambridge committee is in its third generation. Olly felt called to sacrifice his prospects in the City to launch Fruitful Work in universities across the country. Our team of 10 is excited to help inspire a generation to go all-in to impact the world for Jesus.
