Business and faith
Christian business owners, stewardship, and growth
Short answer
For a Christian business owner, growth is not only a revenue question. It also raises questions of stewardship, pride, responsibility, debt, employees, family, generosity, and control. The business still needs sound decisions, but those decisions should not be separated from what the owner believes about duty and success.
Growth can be good. Growth can also flatter pride, stress the house, underpay attention to employees, and turn stewardship into a nicer word for appetite. The question is not whether ambition exists. The question is what ambition is serving.
