As the end of the year approaches, we at M3 Weekly look back on the last twelve months with gratitude to the community of fellow travelers in this adventure we call Missional Enterprise.

Thank you for your commitment to building businesses for God’s glory, and for your participation in our M3 community, whether through participation in an M3 Cohort, being a sponsor or participant in an M3 Internship, or reading and sharing this M3 Weekly e-newsletter.

This week, we want to direct your attention to the five posts that you, our readers, have found most helpful this year. Please take a look, and consider sharing M3 Weekly with a friend who may be interested in Missional Enterprise (you can use the “share” link at the bottom of this post.

And now, our top posts from 2022, counting down from five to one:

• Five. Beyond Zoom: This Memorial Day weekend article explored the impact of an increasing level of remote work, not only on our business success but also on our ability to impact our communities and the lives of men and women for Christ.
• Four. The Culture of an Enterprise: Does culture in an enterprise really “eat strategy for breakfast?” We shared several resources on the importance of culture and strategies for building and sustaining healthy culture in our enterprises.
• Three. The First Thing: As Paul told Timothy, “The first thing I want you to do is pray.” In this post, we directed you to some great resources from Kim Avery, BAM Global, and Tim Keller, to help us put prayer in its rightful place.
• Two. The Lone Wolf Myth: Do successful entrepreneurs possess unique tendencies and capacities for “going it alone?” We direct you to research and stories indicating that just the opposite is true.
• One. BAM Global Movement: Part of our M3 Weekly Book Review series, this post presents the review of a new book by BAM leaders Gea Gort and Mats Tunehag.

Honorable Mention:

• Missional Enterprise at the Movies: Grab the popcorn and settle down to view one of these seven well-received movies that all relate to the triple bottom line. Our friends at Faith-Driven Entrepreneur recently featured this post on their site.
