Book Description

January 1, 2008
Let your light shine before all men, that they might see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16). Kris Den Besten blends his successful business practices with his strong Christian faith through SHINE, a proven corporate culture model he designed and implemented. The author shares how his business was radically salvaged by SHINE principles that developed people's talents, increased productivity, and quantified the core values of integrity and honesty. Whether you are a CEO, middle management, or an entry-level employee, SHINE principles will change the way you think about yourself, your career and the Light in your life.

4.0 out of 5 stars shine, January 19, 2008
This review is from: Shine: 5 Principles for a Rewarding Life (Paperback)
Good book about how we are called to shine-to live in such a way that others would see Christ's character radiating in us to the glory of God the Father. When Christ shines in us, we represent His Kingdom on earth.
Recommend to all Christians that want to shine for Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book for daily life and life @ work, February 14, 2008
This review is from: Shine: 5 Principles for a Rewarding Life (Paperback)
3 reasons why this book is important to read:
1 - because we were made to shine. Jesus said in Matthew 5 that it's through our God-saltiness and our God-brightness in daily life that people see this gracious and loving God who wants to shine in and through us. It's what we were made for. It's how God is know.

2- because Kris calls us to beyond-self living, and it's only when we live beyond ourselves that life works, that we are empowered and in-powered for living.

3 - because being the church is an all 168 hours of the week thing, and Kris challenges us to that kind of living and that kind of loving and that kind of leading.

Check it out and pass it along to the people that you listen to and lead in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Life...Where Christianity Meets the Loading Dock, July 23, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Shine: 5 Principles for a Rewarding Life (Paperback)

This book was recommended to me by a fellow business owner on the Business As Mission forum. I don't usually buy books on a recommendation from someone I don't know, but Jack said this book litterally turned around his entire perspective toward his business. The author, who owns a Florida business, reveals much of his passive Christianity for the reader in not seeing results in both his personal and business life. Then, through God's grace, he developed an individual and company 'formula' that changed everything. That formula became the S.H.I.N.E. principle that turned my new friend Jack's business and personal life around. It could even be a group-study book--if there is enough stock left in captivity. Also, don't allow the 2008
copyright to disuade you. It's as evergreen useful today and tomorrow as it was when it first came off the press.
