25 More “Business as Mission” Resources from “Kingdom Business”

Given that the business in mission is in someways new principle, at least in the context of social enterprise in the developing world, I though these resources (for networking, case studies, best practices, cultural adaption, business models, and host of other business related information and research) from the book might be helpful to provide more depth of study. Kingdom Business also appears to be available free and in full via Google books.
