Spirit of Organization

About this Site

Many churches today suffer the pangs of unfulfilled dreams, not because they lack spiritual life or sound theology, but because they are either unaware of or resistant to the rich insights that are available in the literature and research of organizational development, organizational learning, and strategic leadership. At the same time, the potential of this research and practice in the corporate world is often hampered by the absence of a biblical understanding of the spiritual dimension of people.

This blog is dedicated to exploring the interaction between these two worlds: the world of organizational theory and the world of theology. The dove in the top banner symbolizes peace for millions of people. For the Christian, it also symbolizes the gift of the Holy Spirit, which is the very essence of God made available to all who call upon His name. The dark background is symbolic of a world is reeling in confusion, organizational and political scandal, and profound economic concerns.

It is my prayer and my goal that this site might be one small conduit through which a little light might shine. I don't mean a conduit from me to you. What I really want is to dialog with you about these topics, even if you totally disagree with me. It is through this kind of interaction that our own biases are peeled away and truth exposed.

I am learning Joomla and lo and behold the first friendly face answering questions in the string I looked in turns out to be a Christian. God truely puts forth what you need right in front of you in "the way" so you walk straight into what you need next. May I please get some mentoring on this stuff? I bobbled through the first tutorial and need do know how to save more than one site on my hosting account as I plan on using Joomla alot to serve my customers.

Quote of the Day

"The 20th century has been the bloodiest on record, not only for all of humanity but for Christians as well. In these 100 years more Christians have lost their lives as martyrs than in all the previous centuries combined. The current rate is a staggering 160,000 new Christian martyrs each year"
-- David Barrett, Renownd researcher of global Christianity, 2001.
