Join host Justin Forman as he sits down with Pastor JD Greear at South by Southwest for a conversation that every entrepreneur in the church needs to hear. JD makes a bold, biblically-grounded case that marketplace work is not auxiliary to the gospel—it is the gospel in action. Drawing from his book Everyday Revolutionary and decades of pastoral experience, JD challenges both pastors and entrepreneurs to see business not as a platform for ministry, but as ministry itself. From the story of Daniel's excellence in Babylon to the unnamed "them" in Acts 11 who planted the most significant missionary-sending church in history, this episode reframes what it means to be a faithful follower of Christ in the workplace—and why it matters more right now than ever before. Key Topics: Why the Great Commission is not the First Commission—and what that means for your work The five characteristics of an "Everyday Revolutionary" entrepreneur from JD's book How Daniel's quiet excellence gave him credibility to speak the gospel to kings The ROI of Kingdom investment: Summit Church's church planting data that will reframe how you think about impact Why entrepreneurs are the "tip of the gospel spear"—and what pastors need to do about it Notable Quotes: "The first interface of the gospel and culture is in the workplace." — JD Greear "Daniel lived quietly and testified loudly—but his quiet life was the way that he was excellent, more excellent than all the other people in his class." — JD Greear "I want people in our community to say, 'We don't believe what those crazy people at Summit believe, but thank God they're here.'" — JD Greear About the Guest: JD Greear is the pastor of Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, and the author of Everyday Revolutionary, a practical guide to integrating faith and work using Daniel as a model. He served overseas in missions and has led Summit to become one of the most prolific church-planting churches in the United States, sending out more than 2,000 members who now worship in over 100,000-person-strong planted churches. He also serves on the board of Chick-fil-A.
