Overview (from the Publisher)
"A businessman-pastor directly connects modern business management with biblical principles including organization, crisis and risk management. Some of today's management principles really come from Scripture. He looks at 7 wealthy people in the Bible who demonstrate these principles: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Solomon and Job. God blesses people in terms of profit in business so that wealth can be used to participate in God's work of salvation in the world for God's glory. He challenges businessmen to follow these principles to glorify God. Includes business dictionary. 320 pp."
