I. Introduction. Overview of this book -- A short introduction to the gospel of Luke -- Managers, goods and services producing organizations, and first-century Palestine -- II. Problem recognition: how interpreting Luke via a first-century management lens challenges the conventional interpretation of two key management parables. A three-dimensional first-century lens for understanding management -- Interpreting Luke's Parable of the Shrewd Manager via a first-century lens -- Interpreting Luke's Parable of the Ten Pounds via a first-century lens -- III. Action response: performing a comprehensive examination of passages in Luke related to each of the three dimensions of the first-century management lens. Passages about managing relationships within organizations (oikonomia) -- Passages about managing money (chrematistics) -- Passages about managing relationships between organizations -- IV. New way of seeing: management, the kingdom of God, salvation, and the Holy Spirit. The kingdom of God is enacted and manifest in organizational settings -- Salvation is facilitated when people are saved frrom oppressive structures and systems, and are saved for work in liberating organizational structures and systems -- The Holy Spirit is key to salvific kingdom of God management -- V. Institutional change: a four-phase "how to" process model for putting into practice management principles described in Luke. A four-phase process model embedded in Luke's journey narrative -- Luke's three "forward" cycles through the four-phase process model -- Luke's three "reverse" cycles through the four-phase process model -- VI. Implications for twenty-first-century management theory and practice. Managing relationships within organizations: organizational structure, motivation, and leadership -- Managing money: economics, finance, and accounting -- Managing relationships between organizations: marketing, supply chain, and strategy -- Final thoughts -- Appendix A. Analysis of the chiasm in Luke's journey narrative -- Exhibit A1. Overview of the empirical study examining the plausibility of the chiastic pairings -- Appendix B. Usage of kurios in Luke to describe God and Jesus.

This unique work analyses what the Gospel of Luke says about management, as interpreted via a first-century understanding of management, drawing implications for contemporary organization and management theory and practice. Luke presents a counter-cultural approach to management, and in particular promotes the creation of organizations that include social outcasts and serve to minimize the gap between rich and poor. Because it brings much-needed scholarly rigor to a growing field, this reader-friendly book promises to become the classic 'go to' book for anyone truly interested in studying what the Bible says about managing organizations.
