Boldly Bi-Vocational: Navigating Dual Callings in the Ministry and the Marketplace

Description

This book helps congregations support pastors and ministry leaders serving in both ministry and marketplace settings. It also supports congregational leaders seeking sustainable models of ministry in contexts where full-time pastoral compensation is not feasible. Bivocational and multivocational pastors will find encouragement, practical guidance, and theological reflection for integrating multiple callings.

To thrive in dual callings, Powell offers biblical foundations, practical strategies, and real-world examples. This book includes pastoral encouragement, leadership insights, and vocational discernment. Through stories and ministry experience, Powell explains how pastors can balance competing responsibilities and view marketplace work as an extension of their ministry.
