Summary

Can Business Glorify God? We normally think of worship, faith evangelism, and other "spiritual" activities as glorifying to God, but business? Business seems synonymous with greed and corruption, not something that would imitate a holy God. But Wayne Grudem believes that by engaging in work and business we glorify God because we are emulating God's own creative work. This biblically based book is a thoughtful guide to imitating God during interactions with customers, coworkers, employees, and other businesses. See how your business, and your life in business, can be dedicated to God's glory.
