I believe that there is more to being "salt and light" than singing praise songs and going to church. For us to really express to a lost and dying world the message of Christ, he should permeate every part of our lives. This includes our businesses and our use of the profits derived from that business. Thanks for the comment.

What is it to be a Christian in a capitlistic environment? I believe that you brought up some key points - Treating people with biblical values, getting involved in the community, these are very simple but can make a profound effect if done in earnest. Ken Costa (author of God at Work) did a speech recently where he said Christians in business need to move from providing "goods and services" to actually doing good and being of service. I think he's got it right. You are hitting on a very important question. What is it to be a Christian in a capitlistic environment?
