God is as concerned with Monday as He is with Sunday. A full-day intensive equipping believers to carry His power into the marketplace.
God is as concerned with your Monday as He is with your Sunday.
Joseph didn’t change the world from a pulpit. He changed it from a palace — inside a secular system, in a foreign economy, in the middle of a famine. God had positioned him on purpose, and the same is true for you. Your job, your business, your influence — that’s not a distraction from your calling. It is your assignment.
This is a full-day intensive for believers who are done separating their faith from their work. If you’ve ever sensed that God wants to move through you Monday through Friday — not just on Sunday — this day is for you.
Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
A framework for hearing God clearly in your everyday work. Not vague impressions — a practical grid for discerning His voice and moving in wisdom in real decisions, real deals, and real pressure. Language for your assignment. You’ll stop seeing your job as “just a paycheck” and start seeing the territory God has given you to steward and transform.
Faith to move when the numbers don’t add up. Learn how to walk by faith in uncertainty, lack, and famine seasons — and how kingdom people are meant to profit when everyone else is panicking.
A ready-to-use marketplace toolkit. In a hands-on workshop, you’ll get social media strategy, practical tools, and plug-and-play templates you can start using the very next day to build your platform, share your voice, and grow your influence.
Impartation, not just information. This isn’t a lecture hall. There’s dedicated worship, ministry, and activation time built into the day — you’ll leave stirred, strengthened, and sent.
A room full of like-minded marketplace leaders. Connect with entrepreneurs, professionals, and believers who are carrying the same fire into their fields.
Your day includes:
• “Here Come the Dreamers” — Dr. Malik Edwards
• “Your Job Is Your Assignment” — Ashley Turner
• “Walking by Faith” — Isaac & Shanay Howard
• “Profiting in Famine” — Lorraine Barnes
• Marketplace Toolkit: Social Media, Tools & Strategy — a hands-on workshop
• Live Q&A after every session, worship, and ministry time
Continental breakfast is included. Doors open at 8:30 AM; the day runs 9:00 AM–4:30 PM with a lunch break on your own.
Come ready to take notes, ask questions, and step into everything God has for you in the marketplace.
Hosted by The Surge Network at Relentless DC.
