Spirituality of businesses

"At Ben and Jerry’s, we learned that there’s a spiritual life to businesses as there is in the lives of individuals,” said Cohen. “As you give, you receive. As you help others, you are helped in return. For people, for businesses, for nations — it’s all the same.” This is the other mission frontier that chirstendom church's have not been taking seriously: the workplace. That';s because the parish or the sunday congregation has been seen as where the kingdom of God is really focused and our structures have been built to service that. What happens, though, if we take seriously what God is doing 'out there' in ordinary workaday life? Can we turn the church inside out? Can we stop churches being so selfish and self-absorbed? How do we make it so that churches really do service the mission of their members in life rather than the other way round?
That's the big challenge of 21st century western church.
