Product Review

From Des Moines to Lanzhou, individuals, corporations, and organizations are quickly learning that innovation is crucial to survival in the dynamic global marketplace. Everyone can innovate and everything is open to innovation. Moreover, innovation is far more than a steady stream of new products traveling through the development pipeline. This groundbreaking book asserts that innovation is a redemptive, biblical process, allowing individuals a special mechanism for experiencing God and ultimately accomplishing His earthly will for mankind. We cannot ignore the elegance of God’s innovation around us. Innovation is therefore a spiritual act of obedience, imitation, and worship. Christian innovation does not necessarily deal with religious subject matter, nor is it labeled as such solely through its accomplishment by a professing Christian. Innovation is Christian when it is aligned with the purposes and methods of God-in-Christ. The Light Prize provides valuable information about key concepts and hands-on actions commonly used by successful innovators. Written for those studying innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership in Christian liberal arts colleges, it also will be welcomed by thinking Christians and open-minded innovators everywhere. As noted author Francis A. Schaeffer said, “The Christian is the one whose imagination should fly beyond the stars!”
