Description
Any thoughtful follower of Christ who is in business or the profession has wondered if it is possible to combine true biblical Christianity with the rocking, socking reality of the world of commerce.I suspect that most of us - under our breath, of course - would utter, "No" or, "I'm not so sure." We would never publicly admit such misgivings in Christian circles. But the reality is that when Monday morning rolls around and we enter the "real" world of cut-throat competition, most of us find ourselves doing whatever it takes to survive. To win. To turn a profit.R. C. Sproul had it right in stating that most professed Christians are in fact "practicing atheists".Intellectually, we probably know that from a biblical perspective, the secular and spiritual worlds are supposed tobe one and the same. The question is how to apply shoe- leather Christianity to the rough and tumble world of the marketplace in order to make that a reality.Our friends outside the pale of Christian influence desperately need to see the life of Christ modeled in their world. Most would never think of entering a church, but they will sit up and take notice of a person who demonstrates the life of Jesus in the marketplace.It is my hope that this little book will serve as a useful tool in helping to bridge that gap between the secular and the spiritual. Perhaps it will also serve to help equip you, the business and professional person, in a manner that will strengthen your walk with God, and help you influence the lost toward embracing Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.Dwight Hill
