How we define Impact

A concrete change that conforms with God’s redemptive plans to renew our fallen world.

Here’s a 5-minute summary of what we mean by “impact.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We’re a Christian career advisory that helps Christians to discern careers with radical impact.

    Because we’re a nonprofit, everything we offer is free.

  • During university, our team felt God was calling us toward careers that radically serve the poor and powerless.

    But we had questions:

    • With so many problems in the world, which one is God calling us to? (Isaiah 6:8)

    • In what jobs can God have the greatest impact through us? Where can we most bring about justice and mercy? (Micah 6:8)

    • How do we balance hearing God’s calling with reason, evidence and science?

    There’s surprisingly little Christian research on this, so we spent years prayerfully considering and studying this, alongside academics at Oxford and Cambridge.

    We built this site to share the best advice and mentorship we received.

  • If you are a Christian looking to have an ambitious career with radical impact for God’s kingdom, here’s our primary advice, or read our 10-minute guide.

    1. Don’t follow your passion

    Many of us have heard the advice “just follow your passion.” This can be dangerous, for these reasons:

    • It’s unreliable. Many of the things we want or are passionate change frequently. Just ask yourself: What were you most passionate about five or ten years ago? Is that still what you care most about today? Our hearts can be deceptive, as the prophet Jeremiah says, “the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick” (Jeremiah 17:9).

    • It’s impractical. One study suggests that only 3% of students have a passion relevant to career choice. This might be okay for you now, but careers are long - 80,000 hours long (40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years). Following your passion might not be a sustainable path in the long term.

    • It’s not biblical. More often God calls us to what promotes His redemptive purposes. Moses did not have a passion for public speaking when God called him to stand up to Pharaoh. Jonah had no desire to carry out his vocation in Nineveh. God might be calling you to use your talents and gifts in ways that have a large impact for His kingdom.

    2. Plan your career around impact

    The Bible presents careers as tools that we can use to have an impact; that is, a concrete change that conforms with God’s redemptive plans to renew our fallen world.

    We see impactful careers all over scripture. For example,

    • Nehemiah’s place as cupbearer to the King allowed his restoration of the city of Jerusalem.

    • Daniel, Joseph and Moses played instrumental political and governmental roles to defend God’s people and protect their freedom.

    • Paul made tents to fund his evangelism which brought countless people to know and love God and neighbour.

    3. Have a massive impact with radical generosity and focus on the right problems

    You can have a radically impactful career by

    • Working in any job and giving away 10% of your money to effective charities.

    • Pursuing careers that directly tackle a pressing global problem.

    • Helping others to be more impactful.

    We think there are 8 global problems that are especially promising areas for early-career Christians who want to have the greatest kingdom impact. Our list includes global health and poverty, missions, politics and policy, animal cruelty, pandemics, climate change, and nuclear war.

    Planning your career around these problems could enable you to help the greatest number of the poor, the lost, and the vulnerable.
