CHRISTIANITY AND WORLDVIEWS MODELS OF ENGAGEMENT Angus J. L. Menuge Department of Philosophy Concordia University Wisconsin CELT 10/22/2019 What is a Worldview? Worldview: A systematic way of viewing all reality, including answers to three main questions: Why do good people do bad things? What will happen to our economic principles if we lose our Christian worldview? Does God call some to be in business? How can the church support the business community?Biblical Perspectives on Business Ethics: How the Christian Worldview has Shaped Our Economic Foundations answers these questions and provides a foundation framework of understanding for all those seeking to have a biblical understanding of commerce. This book was born out of a business ethics conference which took place in Philadelphia, in 2010. Chuck Colson, Peter Lillback, Philip Ryken, Wayne Grudem and several others have come together to encourage and strengthen the reader in an informed, Christian worldview as it relates to business. When the daily business news breaks away from stories of profit and loss, it often shines a spotlight on ethical failures. But Christians aim to be ethical in all the areas of daily life and work-not just when the spotlight is on them. For those facing the many questions and quandaries of doing business with ethical integrity, Alec Hill offers a place to begin. In this third edition of a popular textbook on business ethics, Hill carefully explores the foundational Christian concepts of holiness, justice, and love. These keys to God\'s character, he argues, are also the keys to Christian business ethics. Hill then shows how some common responses to business ethics fall short of a fully Christian mindset. Using penetrating case studies on such pressing topics as employer-employee relations, discrimination and affirmative action, and environmental damage, he clothes principles in concrete business situations. Updated throughout, and with a new chapter on international business, this new edition ofJust Business is an excellent introduction to business ethics for students, and a timely refresher for men and women already in the marketplace.
