Leviticus -- Answering the Call...from Your Roots


"If you sell land to one of your countrymen or buy any from him, do not take advantage of each other."
(Leviticus 25:14)



What happen if we don't follow the biblical way?

"If in spite of this you still do not listen to me but continue to be hostile toward me, then in my anger I will be hostile toward you, and I myself will punish you for your sins seven times over...."
(Leviticus 26:27)



Is it simislar to our American way of life?

"But if they will confess their sins and the sins of their fathers...when their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they pay for their sin, I will remember my covenant...the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought out of Egypt in the sight of the nations to be their God. I am the LORD."
(Leviticus 26:40-45)

As Os introduced his incredibly timely book, The Case for Civility: and Why Our Future Depends on It, he outlined three mega-questions that will have inestimable impact on our world in the years to come.

Question 1: Will Islam modernize peacefully?

Question 2: What belief system will replace Marxism in China?

Both of these beg to be unpacked … at least a little … and I’m sure Os will do some of that at the Conference, but it’s the 3rd question that most challenges me. It may also hold the most potential to engage all of us in the business world – especially in the Western business world.

Question 3...
