In Matthew 10:16, Christ advised His Apostles to be "wise" and "innocent" as they go out "in the midst of wolves." This book shows Christians how to be wise and innocent as they work among people who sometimes behave like wolves. Temptation, greed, dishonesty, and misguided ambition have always presented challenges for Christians in the workplace. Add secular bias, political correctness, and persecution to the mix, and the modern workplace becomes a foreboding environment for Christians to navigate. This is so much the case, many Christians wonder if it is still possible to earn a living without compromising their faith. Christians on the Job does more than demonstrate that Christians can stand firm when confronted with faith-related dilemmas in the workplace. It also demonstrates how to go about it. Using concepts illustrated with real-life examples, steps to implement in specific situations, life application questions, and resources for going deeper, Dr. Goetsch draws a clear map to ensure Christians can find their way and thrive on the job.

Speed, intangibles, and connectivity are reshaping business behavior at its core. The old rules of mass production, segmented pricing, and rigid organizations are no longer sustainable. In this new economy, the rapid pace of change blurs the lines between buyer and seller, product and service, employee and entrepreneur. To navigate these shifts, a dynamic guide is essential. This groundbreaking work offers more than just insights; it presents a model for thriving in the connected economy, where advantages are fleeting and nothing is fixed. By examining the practices of innovative companies like Amazon, DreamWorks, and MBNA America, the authors create a framework for delivering and capturing value, developing strategies, and managing organizations in a landscape defined by constant change. In this world, knowledge and creativity surpass physical capital, products and services merge into "offers," and traditional transactions evolve into "exchanges." Companies like MCI and artists like David Bowie exemplify the need for adaptability, as they embrace unconventional approaches to foster creativity and monetize their talents. This work challenges readers to rethink their assumptions about business and encourages experimentation in new territories. It outlines a revolution in business and consumer culture, urging you to either join the innovators or risk being left behind. Are you ready to explore the rules of this new economy?
