Business by Design
Applying God's Wisdom for True SuccessBy Raymond Harris
Length6h 8m
About this audiobook
You don't need to quit your day job to serve God.
Do you find it difficult to work with joy? Do you have a hard time with coworkers? Is your identity wrapped up in your job?
Many Christian leaders struggle to bridge the gap between the sacred and the secular—particularly at work. Raymond Harris addressed this dilemma and found true success as one of the most prolific American architects.
Business by Design draws upon biblical principles and life experiences to help you:
avoid the swirl of busyness and develop an eternity-driven mind-set.
exceed worldly standards and demonstrate generosity, compassion, forgiveness, and diligence.
look beyond your own needs and use profits to promote God's kingdom.
let go of feeling you're not doing enough for God and recognize your service to Him at work.
The teachings and example of Jesus can transform your professional life and make you more effective in the workplace. Join your faith and work, and discover your ultimate purpose.
