Common business knowledge is generally based on what is known as best practices. Best practices are normally gleaned by analyzing case studies using rational empirical pragmatism. This is a naturalistic approach, which excludes God in the development of business knowledge. Don’t be deceived into thinking that business knowledge exists independent of God. To develop a sound understanding of business knowledge, one must begin with Christ. Rational empirical pragmatism can be a helpful tool only if it is subordinated to Christ as the repository of all wisdom and knowledge. The true best practices in business are those aligned with the will and ways of God. These practices are found in Scripture and in Creation as illuminated by the Holy Spirit.
