He is the author of God is at Work: Transforming People and Nations Through Business, which was named the top book by the Business as Mission Network, and co-edited On Kingdom Business, winner of a 2004 Christianity Today Book Award. Ken was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Laws degree from Belhaven University, continues to be involved in business ventures worldwide, and acts as an advisor to several Kingdom companies and ministries.
Ken joins me today to discuss the moment he recognized that his faith in the Lord was compatible with a life in business and that he could rely on God's guidance in both His professional and personal life. He shares why it is critical to find your passions, understand what God is calling you to do, and align and integrate your true purpose with the other responsibilities in your life. Ken also explains how a business can have a much higher purpose than profit and why God is just as interested in business as He is in every other facet of our lives.
