How does your church toe the line between business and ministry? Some churches are corporate wannabes, other churches are rebels against a corporate mindset, but here was a school of thought I found interesting.
Google, in a completely unrelated search, took me to What Every Non-Profit Can Learn From a For-Profit (Powerpoint or HTML).

- All decisions must follow this commitment
- Ministry is fueled by business operations, not dependent on donations
- Business is always second to a ministry application
