<transcy>Business for the Glory of God (Business pour la gloire de Dieu) </transcy>
Presentation
Is business compatible with Christianity? Can our professional life glorify God?
We often think of praise, evangelism, and other so-called "spiritual" activities as those that bring glory to God. But what about business? Often synonymous with greed, corruption and human exploitation, it is rarely seen as an activity worthy of a holy God.
Business glorifies God when those who run it imitate the character of God and his creation: this is the thesis of Wayne Grudem . This renowned theologian examines the conditions to achieve this by addressing: possession of goods, productivity, employment, business transactions, profit, money, inequality of possessions, competition, borrowing, lending , attitudes of the heart and the effects on poverty in the world.
This book will help you to live your Christian life in your relationships with your colleagues, your customers, your employees and your partner companies. Find out how your business and / or professional life can be to the glory of God.
For any believer who has not planned to quit his job to become a pastor or missionary, and yet wants to be a disciple where he is placed!
