The marketplace just like every other aspect of creation is crying out for the goodness of God to be revealed. This happens when people realize that they are part of something larger than themselves and invite God into the narrative of their lives. Redemptive leaders know who they are in relation to God.

The Illusion of Trust
I have heard a lot of leaders talk about building a culture of trust. There are all kinds of articles and books out there about the importance of cultures of trust.
My definition of trust is “faith suspended in relationship”. If that definition is even mildly accurate, then I would suggest trust is a helpful byproduct of a healthier foundation of organizational culture. In itself, though, trust is a lousy foundation around which to build culture. That principle is linked to a corollary statement: people are a lousy foundation around which to build culture.
