ENTREPRENEURIAL MINISTRY

The world moves more quickly than ever before, with no signs of slowing down. As we ride this roller coaster, we have accepted a "fast is normal" mind set which has created a culture that allows us to look at, rather than see what's happening around us. Our communities remain in turmoil. However, unless a community changes from the inside out, there has not been a visit from God. The catalyst to this change will be the focused prayers of Christians who truly believe yokes can be broken and strongholds torn down that imprison its people. The entrepreneurial ministry is an outreach extension of the church. It does not in any way take the place of the church. However, it is a partnership between the urban and suburban church and between business people who are inclined toward revitalization and revival.

The spiritually attuned entrepreneur accepts as their prime goal the need to help their consumers of service become their best self as the business itself strives to maximize profit for the wellbeing of all involved. This is a daunting task. God determines your greatness by how many people you serve, not how many people serve you.

In Matthew 25, Jesus shares a vision of heaven and the King of Glory sitting on His eternal throne. At the judgment, the risen Christ will say to His righteous ones “For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink. I was a stranger and you took Me in: I was naked and you clothed Me. I was sick and you visited Me, I was in prison and you came to visit Me.” (v.35-36)

These entrepreneurs of faith are on the lookout for ways to help others. They make themselves available. They do not make excuses, or wait for better circumstances to take place. At times working in the trenches is the only option. In following the example of Christ, You should never arrive at the stage in life where you are too important to help with menial task. For these tasks are part of your character curriculum. Jesus specialized in menial task that everyone else tried to avoid: such as washing feet, feeding the hungry, and helping children. Nothing was beneath him because he was true to his mission, he came to serve. Remember, doing small tasks often show a big heart. Your servant’s heart is revealed in small acts that others refuse to do that ultimately result in big opportunities that are often in disguise.

This book will provide a capsulated view of how God used me in my vocation and gift of leadership to bring empowering resources to numbers of people through a staff of creative individualized like minds that work in the ministries as therapeutic and spiritual counselors. I will share the process of my transformational thinking that ultimately developed my world view that further seeks biblical integrity and spiritual faithfulness for its success.

Many Entrepreneurial servants are called by God to labor in the secular field and plant seeds of reconciliation, hope and love to the un-churched, lost and unloved. For many in the community, this will be their only chance to experience Christ. These servant providers are not local or foreign missionaries but rather businessmen and businesswomen, respectfully known as Entrepreneurs. Their vision of this service and desire to give birth to it was first conceived in their spirit. The spiritual revelation manifested itself to them as a calling to ministry; or in other words, their God given purpose for soul winning. As a direct result of following their Purpose, they became change agents for humanity.

If you are currently serving in obscurity in some small place, feeling unappreciated, God has you there for a purpose. Stay put until he chooses to move you. God is aware of everything that involves you. He will surely let you know if he wants you somewhere else.
