How do you feel about that quote, ESI? I mean, do you ever wish it wasn't true?

halfmom - do I ever wish it wasn't true? not really. i actually like the quote because it makes me think about the impact of doing business in a redemptive way - both in the macro sense (i.e. how individual companies and the larger business community make a positive impact in this world) as well as in the micro/local sense (i.e. how I conduct business everyday to reflect an impression of God's true character)
