Wheaton College’s Center for Faith and Innovation performed a multiple-year research project to explore how faith manifests itself in business. The researchers categorized faith activities into three categories.
Operationalized Faith is our focus today.
These researchers discovered that some companies develop faith-rooted policies or practices. They labeled these operationalized faith.

Proverbs 20:5 teaches, “The purpose in a man’s heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.”
When considering your purpose for any new faith practice, and how you will implement the plan, it is crucial for any policy to become sustainable and effective.
