Christians in Business: A Story of Faith, Purpose, and Community

Every great mission starts with a story, and for us at Christians in Business, that story began long before we ever dreamed of owning the company. I first came on board as a representative, working with churches across the country to help them publish printed business directories. It was a joy to connect believers with each other through their work and to see how God could use a simple tool like a directory to build community.

But in 2020, the world changed. When COVID hit, in-person connections became difficult, and many churches struggled to keep their traditional systems going. It was in that moment of challenge that Christians in Business embraced a new model—transitioning from print to an entirely online business directory. What seemed at first like a setback quickly became an opportunity.

That same year, my wife Amy and I purchased the company. We knew God had opened a door, and we were determined to walk through it with faith and purpose. Since then, we’ve poured our hearts into building Christians in Business into the largest and fastest-growing Christian Business Directory in the world. And what a journey it has been!

Why We Love What We Do

Amy and I thank the Lord every day that we get the privilege of doing this work. At its core, Christians in Business is about more than just business listings—it’s about ministry. We’re not just helping professionals get exposure; we’re equipping them with a platform to use their businesses as tools for the Kingdom of God.

Think about it: every Christian business owner interacts daily with customers, vendors, and employees. These aren’t just transactions—they’re divine appointments. What if business owners approached each workday not only with the goal of making a profit but also with the passion to make an impact? What if every handshake, every email, and every sale became an opportunity to reflect Christ’s love?

That’s the heartbeat of Christians in Business. We believe the Great Commission isn’t limited to the pulpit. It extends into boardrooms, breakrooms, and back offices. Your business isn’t just a way to earn a living—it’s a God-given tool to influence lives for eternity.

The Power of the Christian Business Directory

Our online directory has become a gathering place for believers who are serious about integrating their faith with their work. It’s a platform where Christian professionals can:

• List their businesses and connect with others who share their values.

• Reach their local community by being visible as a Christ-centered option for products and services.

• Find encouragement knowing they are part of something larger—a movement of Christians impacting the marketplace for God’s glory.

We’ve seen countless testimonies of business owners who not only gained new clients but also formed friendships, prayer partnerships, and ministry opportunities through their directory listing. This is why we’re so passionate about growing it even more.

Our Invitation to You

As much as Amy and I love what we do, Christians in Business has never been just about us. It’s about building a network of believers who carry the light of Christ into every workplace and every city.

That’s why we’d love for you to join us. Imagine what could happen if in every city, Christian business owners and professionals came together in unity—not just to promote their businesses, but to advance the Kingdom. Imagine the impact on local communities if we all lived out our faith openly and authentically in the marketplace.

We are on a mission to establish City Christian Business Directories across the country. By partnering with us, you can help create a hub of connection, encouragement, and outreach right where you live. Together, we can transform not just businesses, but entire cities.

Living the Great Commission Through Business

Jesus told us to go into all the world and make disciples. For many believers, “the world” they step into every morning is their workplace. What if we stopped separating ministry from business and started seeing them as one?

At Christians in Business, that’s exactly what we believe. Every contract signed, every product sold, every employee encouraged—these are all opportunities to live out the Gospel. Your business can be the pulpit from which you preach, not with words alone, but with actions, integrity, and love.

Closing Thoughts

Amy and I could never have imagined the journey God would take us on when I first started as a rep helping churches with printed directories. What began as a simple job has now become a calling. And it’s a calling we want to share with you.

If you’re a Christian business owner or professional, we’d love for you to become part of this growing movement. Together, let’s use our businesses as tools to fulfill the Great Commission and make an eternal impact.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about building businesses—it’s about building the Kingdom.
