It’s hard for pastors to tell businesspeople how to express their faith at work. Those who are called to the same vocations are better suited to this task. In Executive Influence, fifteen high-profile executives candidly share how they are finding ways to be salt and light in today’s world. Their stories are inspiring and their insights are summarized in 45 Guidelines for Sharing Your Faith at Work. Thirty other marketplace Christians offer anecdotes that will give readers all sorts of new ideas for opening up conversations about Christ.

From the Inside Flap:

Most Christians are called to the marketplace as their sphere of service. Even in Jesus’ day, only a few disciples were told to give up their jobs and make their living from the gospel. The vast majority of believers, then and now, are to dispense salt and light in daily doses while earning a living in the work-a-day world.
