So one day while driving, the idea came to me. Why don’t we, as Christians, put together a directory of Christians in the workplace. It could list Christian owned businesses, Christian car salespeople, auto repair shops, restaurants, interior decorators, loan officers, jewelers, etc.

Inside this directory you could find information on what church they attended, how long they had been doing what they do, and contact information. So I thought about doing this for about 3 weeks, then realized that it would be a lot of work, and forget about the idea…

So here I am about a year later and I walk into the Foyer of our church and on a table I see something that says “Christian Business Directory” so I pick up a free copy. As I am scanning through the magazine, I realized that this was exactly what I had been talking about!

It was a listing of all locally owned Christian businesses in the California Central San Joaquin Valley. Who would have known this would be such a good idea? Well, you heard it here first…or second in this case.
