    About this ebook

    It’s official... bivocational and covocational ministry and church planting as well as social entrepreneurship are “in.” The pendulum was swung. And rightly so. This is good news and affirms what many have been doing behind the scenes without accolades and fanfare. The New Cartographers was written with the bivo / covo leader in mind. You are the new cartographers. Together we’re mapping and charting this old but new terrain. Throughout the book we’ll explore and uncover topics such as funding, financial sustainability, social entrepreneurship and startups, community and economic development, the nature of the gospel, and the importance of overlooked places and marginalized people.
