Produktbeschreibung
God is doing the seemingly impossible in Silicon Valley -- changing the hearts and attitudes of the rich and successful, and those desperately pursuing riches, power, and prestige. Finding God in Silicon Valley tells how God is working in the lives of people in Silicon Valley--venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, leaders of major companies, innovators in non-profit start-ups, scientists, and technologists. You will be inspired and challenged as you read the very personal stories of their journeys. The book provides lessons for anyone who has struggled with faith issues. You will read how these leaders got beyond the trappings of financial and business success to find God, how they overcame personal struggle and even tragedy to come to know Jesus, how they reconciled faith and reason and the compatibility of faith and science, and how they discovered meaning, purpose, and a calling for their lives.
