Kingdom Business Participant's Guides




SURPRISED BY HOPE is a 501(c)3 nonprofit religious and charitable organization founded in the United States and registered in several East African countries. Our vision is freedom from poverty of body, mind, and spirit. Toward that end, we provide a Christ-centered business education and foster personal encounters with the love of God.

POVERTY in sub-Saharan Africa involves more than a lack of material things. Poverty involves a lack of dignity, a lack of control, and a lack of influence. Starting and growing a business using what God has given them to steward allows participants to experience FREEDOM from poverty of body, mind, and spirit. Our 10-session KINGDOM BUSINESS curriculum provides a spiritually integrated, culturally relevant, developmentally appropriate, and economically beneficial business education for East African church leaders and their community members. These sessions empower participants to provide for their family and to have a kingdom impact.

These Kingdom Business Participant’s Guides serve as a:
  • Workspace for in-class activities and assignments.
  • Collection of draft lesson results for use in Business Plan development.
  • Reference tool to guide real-life application of learned topics.
