The National Organization
The Business Men’s Fellowship is a non-profit member-based organization of christian men who see the necessity of bringing together God and business. We are men whose lives have been transformed through relationship with Jesus Christ and we understand the pressures of the workplace and what they can do to a man, his family, and his business. We’ve come from all walks of
life and backgrounds, with a myriad of experiences but we share a common calling: relationship with a living Savior and a passion for marketplace ministry. We have discovered the peace that Jesus promised to us even in the midst of difficulties. He understands the stresses and obstacles we face in the marketplace on a daily basis. So, yes, God really cares about us, as men, and our business! Our goal is to undertake an effective marketplace ministry with that knowledge and vision. The primary place of action for BMF is the local chapter where testimonies of businessmen present a clear example for men in business to choose to live a Spirit-directed life and effectively mix God and business through Jesus Christ. This is where Business Men’s Fellowship endeavors to answer the challenge of the Great Commission of Jesus. It is how we believe we can help change the culture of the American marketplace. At the local level, members elect leadership from chapter officers to National Directors. Though each chapter operates independently, chapters fall under the leadership umbrella of the National Organization. Our National Service Center is located in Oakland, CA. Twelve elected men sit on BMF’s National Board of Directors. BMF also has a Spiritual Advisory Board. The national organization recognizes that each chapter of Business Men’s Fellowship is unique and understands that different localities have different preferences and needs. BMF has developed operational guides, each offering a unified direction for the organization. These operational guides allow enough room for chapters to run meetings based on their unique combination of membership, culture, and business community while maintaining the vision and priorities of Business Men’s Fellowship.
