Business as Mission 2.0
Jun 30, 2025 12:00 AM

Rudy Carrasaco, US Regional Director for Partners World Wide speaks today at the Acton Lecture Series about Business as Mission 2.0.

Take a look at this short video of Rudy on Business as Mission and Transforming Communities that we did for PovertyCure. Rudy will be featured in the ing PovertyCure curriculum.

Rudy will discuss the guiding principles of Business as Mission (BAM) which affirm human dignity and provide a foundation for businesses that seek to honor God.

2012 marks the launch of the 2nd Global Think Tank on Business as Mission as part of the Lausanne Forum for World Evangelization. This consultative process will reach every corner of the globe, invigorate the movement with case studies and lessons learned, and explore innovative development in sub-fields like BAM and Human Trafficking, BAM-in-a-Box, and BAM that alleviates U.S. poverty.

Unemployment as economic-spiritual indicator — August 2018 report
Series Note: Jobs are one of the most important aspects of a morally functioning economy. They help us serve the needs of our neighbors and lead to human flourishing both for the individual and munities. Conversely, not having a job can adversely affect spiritual and psychological well-being of individuals and families.

Alejandro Chafuen on Real Nazis in Argentina
Acton’s Alejandro Chafuen weighed-in at Forbes on the new Hollywood movie about the arrest and eventual trial of Nazi Adolph Eichman, Operation Finale. The movie is more than a historical reenactment for Chafuen, who recounts in his essay that a notorious Nazi once inhabited the Argentine neighborhood where Chafuen lived for 30 years. The Nazi who lived close to my family, Joseph Mengele, has been credited for being extremely astute in evading capture and changing addresses just in time. But...
‘The great re-homing’: Why entrepreneurs are bringing business home
In the wake of massive economic disruption, many munities have been left by the wayside—whether due to technology, trade, or globalization. While rural factories have shuttered and farms have consolidated, job prospects and educational opportunities have abounded in America’s largest urban centers. Those shifts have brought plenty of benefits through an increased density of smarts, skills, and capital, but they’ve also introduced new risks, from the centralization of power to the fracturing of family munity to the diminishment of national...

A few words from Richard DeVos
Today is a sad day here at the Acton Institute as we mourn the passing of a longtime friend and supporter, Richard M. DeVos. You can read Acton’s statement on his passing that was posted earlier, which sketches the basic outlines of his life for those who may not be familiar with him. But we also thought it appropriate to share the video posted below. It documents a portion of his address at Acton’s2010 Anniversary Dinner, where he became one...
A Jewish perspective on justice, for Rosh Hashanah
A poetic prayer (piyyut) recited on the Jewish New Year declares Rosh Hashanah (which is celebrated today) to be “awesome and terrible,” because “Your kingship is exalted upon it / Your throne is established in mercy / You are enthroned upon it in truth / In truth You are the judge.” But does the divine Judge have a standard of social justice that applies to economic affairs and the distribution of wealth? Curt Biren, who has studied the Hebrew Bible...
‘For your freedom and ours’: Mari-Ann Kelam and Estonia’s Singing Revolution
WHEATON, IL—When I asked Mari-Ann Kelam about the seven-hour delay she endured on an airport ing to speak at an Acton Institute event at Wheaton College, she evinced no hint of irritation. “There are worse places we could be,” she answered demurely. Kelam – immaculately poised, a bination of grace and dignity that eschews the spotlight – seemed to prefer discussing her family’s journey from despotism to freedom. Her parents fled Tallinn, the capital of Soviet-occupied Estonia, in September 1944...
