TOOLS
Redemptive business canvas
Developed by Hannah Lau and Philip Yan
The Redemptive Business Canvas is a practical tool that helps Christian founders and entrepreneurs map out a business model that is aligned with God’s redemptive plan for creation.
Like traditional business canvases, it provides a clear, one-page framework for strategic planning, collaboration, and growth tracking.
What sets it apart is its foundation—built specifically for Christ-followers who seek to integrate their faith with business and create ventures that have a restorative impact.
Whether you’re launching a new business or transforming an existing one, the Redemptive Business Canvas helps you systematically and holistically design a venture that honors God and loves people.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Print out the canvas on 18” x 24” paper (or larger if you prefer).
Alternatively, you can also project the document onto a wall or whiteboard.
To use digitally, consider pasting the PDF of the canvas (as a screenshot) into an online whiteboard.
Prepare sticky notes and pens/markers.
Set aside time. You will not get it all done in one session, but each session should have time set aside to properly engage.
Involve the right people in your company and ecosystem. Consider who should join you in imagining, analyzing and deciding.
USING THE CANVAS
Do not write on the canvas. Instead use sticky notes.
One idea per sticky note. This will make it easier to move ideas around for discussion.
Keep ideas to mid-high level. At this stage, too many details will weigh down the exercise.
Don’t overthink or edit as you go. The process is iterative. Throw it all in to start.
There is no “right answer”. The canvas is merely here to guide the process, not an exam with a score.
More thinking and discussing, less writing. Do not feel pressured to “fill the box”. Take the time to think and pray as you go through it.
Use the small checkboxes in each business area to check if your plan meets its main redemptive aim.
Consider the flow of the canvas: While you don’t have to finish one area before moving to the next, the intended sequence should tell a complete story at the end.
IMAGINE. ARISE. BUILD.
