This month of December is a month for giving. We give gifts to each other; we reflect on the gift of Jesus to humanity; and we think about year-end giving to various charities.
Patrice Tsague, CEO of the Nehemiah Project proposed that business is a gift and he stated twenty reasons. If you agree, we suggest giving to help people start and grow a Kingdom business, thus creating jobs in the name of Jesus. IBEC helps do just that.
Here are 20 reasons that business is a gift:
- Business brings hope
- Business reduces crime
- Business reduces poverty
- Business reduces the threat of terrorism
- Business creates income
- Business reduces dependency
- Business minimizes the threat of war
- Business builds community
- Business creates wealth
- Business helps families
- Business solves problems
- Business creates jobs
- Business helps communities and churches
- Business advances the Gospel and funds the great commission
- Business can be passed on from generation to generation
- Business helps turn a receiver into a giver
- Business turns a consumer into a producer
- Business pays taxes
- Business brings dignity
- Business brings innovation
