What separates the dream from reality?In 1948, two graduate students at the Drexel Institute of Technology overheard a supermarket executive discussing a fundamental problem\u2014the need for an automatic system to read each product item. Working together, the two students helped change the way retailers do business. They created the idea of a barcode.Before the barcode, supermarket clerks had to punch numbers into a keypad. It was slow. The process was prone to keystroke errors. After the barcode, everything is scanned swiftly and with minimal errors.We experience the change to the barcode system almost every day. It\u2019s ubiquitous. But how did the idea transition to reality? What can churches learn from this process?"}
