Christian Mortgage Brokers Association Launches Nationwide!
7/26/08 (4:39 p.m.) BUSINESS WIRE - When most people think of
mortgage brokers the last thing they think about is Christianity. Yet a group
of brokers have banded together with a simple goal: To evangelize the mortgage
industry with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
President Brian Peart explains the origin of the Christian
Mortgage Brokers Association (CMBA) and their vision: “Over the years I have
met thousands of mortgage people at my conferences and trade shows and I have
always been surprised at the number of Christians. The challenge is that few
have the knowledge, methods, and tools to share their Faith in the workplace
where it is desperately needed. And our industry really does need this
ministry. There are a lot of people hurting out there right now, who need the
love, grace and hope that comes from a personal relationship with Jesus
Christ. Our members believe it’s up to us to reach out. We can not be content
to sit in church on Sunday and let the Pastor do all the evangelizing; we need
to take the Gospel message into the workplace.”
Peart has personally inspired hundreds of his clients to follow
Jesus Christ through his mortgage business and conferences. Now he’s hoping to
expand that reach to others in his industry. And the results have been
impressive so far. In the first several weeks the CMBA has experienced a flood
of new members and held the first nationwide Bible study in mortgage history.
Where it goes from here is anybody’s guess. Already, comments
are being made about mixing religion and business. But Peart is quick to point
out, “Our ministry is free. People can go to the website at
www.christianmortgagebrokers.org and post prayer requests, get links to
helpful sites, and read encouraging messages and even listen to bi-monthly
Bible Studies. I believe the industry is ready and I think that the Lord is up
to BIG things in the mortgage and real estate industries. We are just excited
to be a part of it!”
