Luke 16:13
No ever said finding a job was easy (if you did, please tell me your ways). I am a history major with experience in photography, recreation, coaching, movie theatres and as a youth leader. None of which complement each other well.
As a christian, I find that I want to do something directly related to promoting God's Kingdom on earth. Be that church work or working for a christian non profit. What better way to evangelize and promote my own relationship with God than to be surrounded by other like minded individuals and get paid for it. It's like killing every bird that ever lived with one stone.
The problem is that Christian jobs are hard to find. And where there are jobs, my experience doesn't lend itself to being very advantageous. So, I look for jobs that aren't necessarily Christian on the surface.
However, when you truly look at your job and think that it might not be "christian" because none of your co-workers attend church or the mission statement says nothing about eternal life, think again. If you truly believe that everything in life is ordained by God, than you are in that job by the grace of the Father. He meant for you to be there and because of that reason, it is Christian.
You were put on this earth for a purpose and that dead end, stressful, low paying job that you hate is all part of the plan.
