TOPIC:  Lessons from Christian Entrepreneurs in a Post-Christian Europe

DESCRIPTION:  A Christian Entrepreneur is not allowed to hire just Christians? A Christian branch manager can only send “Seasons greetings” instead of “Christmas cards”? Europe was once the driving force behind Christendom and the birthplace of significant figures and movements which impacted the world.  Today, Europe is perceived as inexorably sliding into dechristianization and secularization.  Yet, in the midst of the unique European context, there are fervent centers of Christians having an impact in the marketplace. Timo will share lessons from his work with a wide network of Christian business and entrepreneurial leaders from throughout Europe and show ways how to deal with a post-Christian environment.
