Work or Full-time ministry? Now you may not have to decide.

I've always felt a little "less spiritual" than my friends in full-time ministry. But, as a business person, I now realize that I am fulfilling my call in the world. Paul does a great job of communicating God's desire for many of us to preach the gospel and make a living at the same time. No longer do I feel guilty or inadequate because of my chosen path. Thanks Paul for hearing from the spirit of God on this important matter. I have purchased this book for several of my Christian business friends.
