Foundational Marketplace Discipleship Programme (FMDP)

God is Boss. We are Stewards

A free, six-module biblical discipleship programme equipping Christian business owners to grow in knowledge, understanding, godly wisdom, spiritual discernment and faithful stewardship in the marketplace.

Our Biblical Foundation

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

Romans 12:2 (NIV)

At Consecrated Business Ministry, we believe that faithful business stewardship begins with a right relationship with God. Knowledge provides a foundation, understanding brings clarity, and wisdom guides responsible decisions. Through Jesus Christ, business owners are called to walk in freedom, reverence for God and obedience to His Word.

The Foundational Marketplace Discipleship Programme therefore seeks to develop business owners who do not merely seek God's blessing upon their businesses, but learn to honour His authority in how they think, decide, lead and steward what has been entrusted to them.

Who the Programme Is For

The Foundational Marketplace Discipleship Programme is designed for Christian business owners who desire to establish and strengthen their businesses upon biblical principles. Whether starting, rebuilding or already operating a business, participants are invited to deepen their relationship with God, develop sound spiritual judgment and grow in their responsibility as faithful stewards of what He has entrusted to them.

What Participation Requires

Participation in the Foundational Marketplace Discipleship Programme requires a willingness to learn, reflect on Scripture and apply biblical principles in everyday business life.

Participants are expected to engage actively in the learning sessions, complete their own reflection and assessment activities, seek God through personal prayer and exercise responsibility for their business decisions and conduct.

CBM provides biblical teaching, guidance and opportunities for reflection and growth. Each participant remains responsible for their own spiritual development, decisions and practical application of what they learn.

The Foundational Marketplace Discipleship Programme consists of six structured learning sessions delivered over two weeks. Each session is approximately 75 minutes and focuses on one foundational module.

Participants engage in biblical teaching, guided reflection, discussion and personal application. Learning continues beyond the sessions through individual prayer, Scripture study and reflection activities.
