"If the decline in the American church continues at present pace, the future leaders of Gods church will be plumbers, school teachers, stay at home moms, &amp; business owners." Hugh Halter 
Very few are talking about it yet, but thousands of pastors are opting for a Bi-Vocational lifestyle. Like the 16th century Trappists discovered, our prayer and our labor go hand in hand in God's economy. Everything is sacred, even our secular work. 
Bi-Vocational living doesn't have to mean doing two things poorly. It is the pathway of learning how to leverage all of life into one calling. The BiVO life: *Gives you natural street-cred with the culture you live among *Allows you to pastor, mentor, and disciple friends without the pressure of getting anything from them, or growing a church. *Opens up creative and natural ways to bless the culture and make the kingdom tangible. *Allows you to live naturally, while God builds His church from your life. 
The BiVO way may not be better for everyone...but it may be better for you.

Bivo: A Modern-Day Guide for Bi-Vocational Saints

Missio Publishing

If we’re honest, no one really cares about theology unless it reveals a gut-level view of God’s presence. According to pastor and ministry leader Hugh Halter, only the incarnational power of Jesus satisfies what we truly crave, and once we taste it, we’re never the same. God understands how hard it is to be human, and the incarnation―God with us―enables us to be fully alive. With refreshing, raw candor, Flesh reveals the faith we all long to experience―one based on the power of Christ in the daily grind of work, home, school, and life. For anyone burned out, disenchanted, or seeking a fresh honest-to-God encounter, Flesh will invigorate your faith.
