The London Institute for Contemporary Christianity

Meron: The Minicab Driver

For Meron, driving is a ministry of hospitality, not just transportation. She sees each customer as God-sent, modelling godly character through the patience and attentiveness she shows to the people in her vehicle.

Philippa: The Bridalwear Designer

In the tough, fast, sometimes cruel culture of fashion, kindness and gentleness radiate from Philippa. She’s technically rigorous and creatively adventurous, aspiring to excellence because God deserves our best.

Sunil: The Retiree

Sunil retired from psychiatry a year ago. For him, fruitfulness now means focusing on friendships and life-coaching – and when questions of meaning and purpose arise, lovingly sharing something of what Jesus means to him.

Jan: The Anaesthetist

Jan makes good work as she figures out the perfect dose for a patient; ministers grace and love by picking up others’ emergency calls when they’re overloaded; and works for truth and justice as she speaks out for her exhausted team.

Robert: The Plumber

Robert brings peace to people whose taps have exploded: ‘it’s going to be ok.’ He works on time and honestly, warning customers about big jobs. He does servicing free for those in difficulty – and builds real trust with those whose homes he visits.

Jessica: The New Mother

Jessica makes good work, caring for her daughter day by day. Recognising lots of mums felt isolated in lockdown, she’s moulding a compassionate online community – sharing tips and sourcing support for her followers.

Mark: The Business Owner

In his IT services company, Mark shows peace and patience under pressure, trusting God for all the challenges of running a business and treating employees and clients in a Christlike way – looking out for their needs, not just the bottom line.

Rich: The Barista

For Rich, being fruitful means creating caring community and serving quality coffee. He shows kindness to all who come in the door, even when they take their stress out on him, and he cares for his team, making the café a special place to work.
