Marketplace Theology Program

In addition to course offerings and a concentration in the area of Marketplace Theology, Regent College promotes several other projects and connections to facilitate the integration of Christian faith in the marketplace:

  1. Conferences: A regular cycle of conferences and events are offered that serve to integrate Christian faith and societal careers and ministries. Our annual conference is entitled Christian in the Marketplace.
  2. Immersions on the Vancouver Campus: Business and professional people may take a short or long immersion on the Vancouver campus for the purpose of vocational reassessment, processing occupational transition, or taking a focused study sabbatical. Early in the immersion, the participant will develop a learning plan for the time, including: attending courses on the campus, interviews with faculty, an assigned mentor and/or spiritual director, a directed reading program and interviewing local resource people in business.
  3. Businessperson in Residence: This program allows an experienced businessperson to relate to the faculty and student body in a learning and ministering capacity, attending lectures, networking with students from the marketplace, hosting learning groups based on various occupations, interacting with faculty to facilitate integration.
  4. Marketplace Cohorts: Regent College partners with churches, businesses and parachurch organizations to offer an integrated community-based learning experience in cities around the world. These normally consist of around five modules each lasting two to three days and spread over a six-to-nine-month period. Regent faculty facilitate collaborative learning, dialogue and mutual mentoring.
  5. Vocational Discernment: In today’s world most people are in fairly continuous vocational transition. Regent’s marketplace program provides resources for people to help discern their personal missions and craft a career as part of their calling. Usually offered in a weekend format or as a one- or two-day seminar, Regent offers a reflective experience in discernment assuming the largest understanding of calling: the invitation of God to live and work all of life before him.
  6. Continuous Studies Resources: A range of extension course material in Marketplace Ministry are available or in production for credit or audit and for use by small groups in a church or business setting.
