This is an older book.  I had to buy a used copy on Amazon.  It takes all of about 30 minutes to read but for those of us in the ministry it is well worth it.

The author David High has spent a good portion of his adult life in the ministry before moving to the business world.  This has given him a unique view of how ministers and business people can relate in a way that maximizes their impact on the world.

He feels that often ministers (priests) put pressure on businessmen (kings) to go into full time ministry if they really want to make a difference.  Light shares that some business men have been strategically placed in the world to help ministers to make a difference and that this is the most important role they could play.

In short, he says that priests cast the vision and that kings made the provision to help fulfill the vision.  If priests are not doing their job of casting a God sized vision kings will get frustrated and either create their own vision or pour their resources into things that have not eternal value.  On the other hand, if kings do not make provision for the priest’s vision, he will end up spending more time concerned about these matters than the things of God and ministering to people.

It is always a little concerning that in writing such a short review that people will get many wrong ideas about a book.  Let me just say that this book is on target.  Much of what he shared I knew was true but had never been able to capture it in such a concise manner.  I think any business person interested in kingdom work should read this book and every minister can benefit greatly from it.
