Well, as a lot of you know, I have been thinking that God wants me to start a church one day. Well now that I am doing a night mangager job at chickfila a whole new future possibility has opened up to me. The owner of the store thinks I would make a great owner of a chickfila someday as well if I felt like that was something God wanted me to do. Okay, at first I thought, "this is crazy God wants me to start a church", then I started really being convicted about how there is just a shortage of Christian business men in the world. If I decided to pursue this one day, I could still and would be encouraged to speak, preach, and do ministry on a volunteer basis so that would never be completely out of my life. A seminary degree if I finish would also be looked highly upon because the company is Christian owned and run. These are all the thoughts that have me considering or at the very least praying about this possible new opportunity. Could I have a bigger impact on the lost community by owning a business than I could one day starting a church? I honestly don't know. I know I am not the most gifted communicator, but that is something I never want to quit completely. Please pray for me as I am trying to figure out exactly what God wants to do with me. Continue to pray for my wife as well. I am going to try to start blogging more. Please check back and God bless. Let me know how I can pray for you as well.
In Him,
Chad

I think that's a wonderful opportunity. I definitely think God is using people in a variety of ways to minister in the emerging culture. Don't box God into just ministering through a church. Ministers come in all shapes, sizes and vocations. If I were you, I would begin stepping through the new doors God puts in your life. If he doesn't want you to go down that road, he'll stop you. :)
My ministry is teaching... I am not a "preacher" but boy do I preach... Christians are called to go into all the earth...even to the uttermost...uttermost doesnt always mean the island of Fiji in the middle of no where... Keep listening and He will show ya!
