PreambleBAM is a for profit business with Kingdom goals objectives. The financial bottom line is committed to show a profit for the investor community and to allow complete freedom for each investor to share their individual profits with the ministry calling on their life and or of their choice. The pro-active relationship between this example of BAM and other examples that are available, (See the Lausanne Report in Business as Mission section of www.reformationinaction.com for more details.) is unique and exclusive to this contractual Joint Venture relationship. The financial commitment to the shareholders of this venture, for a return on their investment, is not predicated on the success or failure of the non-profit missionary/ministry endeavors to the spiritual community. The ultimate bottom line is for the greater glory of God. Thus, the Kingdom goals of the for-profit BAM are focused and executed with all diligence to the end that all missionary and ministry goals are met. This is not to say, however, that BAM executives and managers can guarantee such success. What the BAM executives and managers in this contractual Joint Venture relationship can guarantee to the non-profit missionary and ministry leaders is a relationship of total commitment to integrity and personal loyalty. The separation of the different spheres of goals and responsibilities of these two distinct types of entities is crucial. The business relationship of this contractual Joint Venture relationship is specifically designed to achieve the goals of both entities without infringing on the web of interconnected responsibilities of either. (See BAM Terms and Definitions in the Business as Mission section of www.reformationinaction.com) The resources of each respective entity are not limited to the success or failure of one or the other. The greater success of both entities is ultimately in the hands of God's providence. However, in so far as human conduct and commitment to excellence in Godly relationships can be of enormous benefit to both entities, such will be the case. Zester Hatfield, President of Reformation Ministries International Corp
