Theology of Work: Looking to the Interests of Others

Bob Walker is the president of Walker Manufacturing Company in Fort Collins, CO. He says that Philippians 2:4, “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others,” helps him answer the question, “What should we do?” He and his brother, Dean Walker, run their company of 155 employees according to kingdom principles such as: love, excellence, and integrity. They like to say that “Instead of making lawnmowers, we make beautiful places.” Following these kingdom principles has helped them through tough economic times.
