Description

Is business inherently selfish? Is making profit morally questionable? Many Christians wrestle with these questions, often feeling that the worlds of faith and commerce are fundamentally at odds. In Business for the Glory of God, respected theologian Wayne Grudem makes a compelling biblical case that business is not just morally acceptable — it is one of the most powerful ways to glorify God and serve others.

Grudem systematically examines the core components of business — ownership, profit, money, competition, borrowing and lending, employment, and commercial transactions — and shows how each one, when conducted ethically, reflects God’s character and provides opportunities for human flourishing. Rather than viewing business as a necessary evil or a secular pursuit separate from spiritual life, he argues that it is a noble calling through which believers can honour God, create value, and bless their communities.

This is a concise, accessible book that packs profound theological insight into a short read. It’s not a business strategy guide — it’s a biblical framework for understanding why business matters in God’s economy. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a professional, or a church leader seeking to encourage marketplace believers, this book will transform how you think about the relationship between faith and work.
