My thanks to Dr. Neil Nielson, President of Covenant College for this brilliant post on Business for God's Glory.
I am sharing it here because he has captured my heart's deepest passion far better than I can express. It's a long piece, but well worth every word.
Here are my highlights:
"My burden this morning is simply (1) to remind you that business is also a holy and godly calling, fraught with dangers and temptations and slippery slopes like every other calling; and then (2) to encourage those of you who sense God’s call into business to relish that call and pursue it wholeheartedly."
"...I have been convinced beyond any doubt that it’s a worthy and noble calling, and that Christians belong in business. And I’d like you to think so too."
And my absolute FAVORITE:
"This gain in wealth, and the resulting improvement in quality of life, is one important reason why I get so excited about an increasingly globalized marketplace, with information and access getting into places and corners of the globe where they’ve never gotten before."
Exactly. We are living in the most exciting economic, business and technological time in over 400 year!
Read the whole post.
And be excited.
