Mark Thompson
Mark Thompson is a business coach and Chief Revenue Officer. He grew up in a small town, where his faith was shaped by his mother's unwavering devotion to God and Jesus Christ, yet for years that faith remained compartmentalized, rarely reaching his home or his work. After he and his wife moved to North Carolina and joined a vibrant church, small groups helped them weave God into their daily rhythms. In his career he has worked with immigrant customers and offshore clients across dozens of countries, whose integration of faith into professional life inspired Bringing Jesus to Work, his ten-week study for Christian professionals.
