A High Calling - Your Workplace

Last fall we spent almost a week in San Antonio, Texas at the C12 Headquarters. I am passionate about this "Biznistry". C12 Group disciples Christ Following Business Owners and leaders to become Kingdom Leaders, who create a Kingdom Culture in their workplaces ,so that the Kingdom of God can advance. While in San Antonio, we interviewed a financial planning firm owner that focuses on middle class clients, not the uber rich. We interviewed the president of a University that was founded to train those in service focused jobs like airplane mechanics. We also spent time with a local businessman who immigrated from Mexico. We heard his story and why he came to America before interviewing several C12 Employees.

Perhaps my favorite interview of the week was with Mike and Jacqui Sharrow. They lead C12 with their selfless actions and attitudes which are reflected throughout the organization and the country. Keep these two in your prayers as they strive to deliver discipleship to Christ Following Business Owners and Leaders and raise their 2 girls, too. Mike and Jacqui are unique servants of God who have experienced incredible adversity and at such a young age realize the high calling of God on their lives.

Are you pursuing your high calling?

As you begin this new year, stop and take time to do some personal inventory. Are you using the gifts, talents, and abilities that God equipped you to use. We have all been called to a workplace that is a true place of ministry. May God bless you this year as you pursue that High calling in your life.

Romans 11:29 New Living Translation (NLT)

29 For God's gifts and his call can never be withdrawn
