Competition

Guard your heart from the sin of mammon worship. Disdaining competition is an indicator of mammon worship. The opposite of mammon worship is the worship of God expressed in the principle of stewardship. Management must model and teach stewardship to all stakeholders. When this view takes hold in the organization, competition is valued because it challenges the organization to be more effective, efficient, and creative. Competition makes organizations better and serves the interests of the customers and clients. Also, competition facilitates mutual learning. Therefore, put aside mammon worship with its narcissistic hedonistic greed. Seek to serve God’s purpose through your organization by competing well.
