The Bottom Line: Business by the Book by Georgie Lee is presented as a profound and practical guide for integrating Christian faith with the world of business.
Based on over 40 interviews with business leaders across Asia.
Lee, an experienced investment banker and a former Financial Times journalist, argues that business is inherently missional, extending beyond mere profit or evangelism to the pursuit of human flourishing.
Drawing on theological, historical, and practical insights, the book challenges the traditional secular-sacred dichotomy, advocating for a holistic “Kingdom mindset”where faith permeates every aspect of work and life. The role of women, whose status is often relegated to a lower level, even within the Christian community, is addressed in a special chapter by the author’s wife, Evelyn.
Dubbed by spiritual and industry leaders as “comprehensive, compelling and must-read”, The Bottom Line offers real-world Asian case studies, emphasising virtues like love, grace, righteousness, stewardship, and the strategic importance of “spiritual capital” in achieving sustainable success and societal impact.

Something big happened 40 years ago. Teenagers broke out into `tongues' in school. Historic institutions like St Andrew's Cathedral and Wesley Methodist Church turned into chaotic places of Charismatic worship. Prayer and Bible study groups sprouted up along Shenton Way. People congregated in homes to experience more of the presence and power of God.
The Charismatic Movement changed the face of Singaporean Protestant Christianity. A Charismatic Christian community was formed. Channels of spiritual Revival were opened as crowds packed schools, homes, churches, stadiums and conference halls. Christianity became relevant to the citizens of a new nation, caught amid sweeping societal changes that were constantly forcing the Church to play `catch-up'.Consonant with Singaporean aspirations for significance, success, and unstinting progress, Charismatic Christianity revealed the tangible dynamism of a God who was constantly working in the personal and professional lives of His children. Believers were drawn to the compelling promise of lives miraculously transformed by the Holy Spirit, and a God who was moving Singapore towards her destiny as the `Antioch of Asia'.
Unfolding His Story is the first attempt to document the Charismatic Movement in Singapore in its entirety. God is still unfolding His Story here. He moved mightily. He shaped the present state of our nation. He can and will move again.
