A few months ago I was searching online for a Christian home based business opportunity. I was somewhat disappointed because, besides being bombarded with ads, I really didn't find too many companies that were founded by Christians or built around Christian morals. Most of the companies I came arcoss were companies with teams of Christians or Christian home businesses owners looking for Christian workers. If you are anything like me, you don't want to work for someone else, you want to work for yourself - but with a company built on biblical principles & morals as well as ran by Christian leaders.

Upon publishing this article, when you search "christian home based business" on Google, the top few sites that come up (besides a bunch of ads) are for different christian business directories (most of the time).

A christian business directory is ok, I guees, if you're wanting to work outside the home or start your own traditional business. But I'm guessing that if you're searching online for "christian home based business," you are most likely wanting to work from the comfort of your home, around your schedule, and without the huge risk or investment involved in owning a "real" business.

If you are truly interested in a Christian home based business, you need to understand a few things. I'm am going to be as upfront and no-hype with you as I can and tell you that you can pretty much only have a Christian home based business in one of the three following ways:

1. You can use the internet & computer to work from home & create an income. This is an almost fool proof way of making money online from home, if you have the time and patience. If you are looking to start a home based business and need to see profits right away this is probably not the best direction to go. In order to succeed at this type of work you need some skill with using the internet and computers and should be able to write. You will also need some time management skills.

2. You can start your own Christian home based business with skills you already have. In this type of business environment, your income can be generated quickly or slowly. Usually only your skill set and your pace determine your success rate. If you have skills such as office/clerical skills, assembly/construction, teaching, mothering, etc. - you can start a business from your home. You will need to be a little creative. For example: If you have office skills, you can contract out your work on an hourly basis. If you are a good craftsman or assemblyman, you can find assembly jobs or assemble items for sale. If you are a teacher or mother, you can start a home school or daycare from your home and charge for your services. Check your state laws. Any of these type business models usually require a lot of planning, sometimes overhead, and are probably not the types of things you have in mind, right? If they are, then a christian business directory may be appropriate for you.
3. You can become a Business Developer, outsource your efforts, and start a Christian home based business. Thousands of millionaires have been created using this simple and duplicatable business model, and so can you. All it takes is the right amount of desire and you can very easily achieve the same of similar success and financial independence by following some simple proven steps. Partnered with the proper training and skill set, the sky is almost the limit as far as possible income. The only industry that allows for this type of lifestyle and achievement with little investment is the interpersonal industry.

So, you've got 3 choices:

1. you can make money online slowly and steadily
2. you can start your own business and work for yourself or someone else --OR--
   
3. you can create twice the income in less time with interpersonal marketing.

What is interpersonal marketing, you ask? I am going to try to explain this in Layman's Terms, but with bullets:

• You go out and search to find a company that has qualities that interest you. Once you do you request more information about partnering with them.
• After you take a look at the opportunity and identify what you like about it, you partner with said company - usually for an investment fee of anywhere from free to a couple hundred or sometimes even thousands of dollars. However, don't let numbers stand in the way of your success. Do also keep in mind that a free or lower cost start-up will leave room for you to invest in other important areas concerning business, such as training and personal development.
• You and the new company you have partnered with and are in business with work together to help you create an income. Your title is now Business Developer and you duplicate your efforts by teaching others to do the same; the company simply just pays you for your efforts. They also take care of most of the brains of the operation by assuming overhead costs like rent, payroll, product or service distribution & development, and much more.
• So, now you've taken almost all the steps towards owning a Christian home based business. The last one you have to take is actually more like several steps because it's getting equipped with the proper training. Once you have made the decision to start a Christian business from home, you must get yourself equipped with the proper training and skill set so that you can be successful at what you are doing and overcome any road blocks you may encounter. It is an ongoing process that needs constant grooming. The best and most sought after business seminars are currently called First Steps to Success. To learn more about those trainings or gain access to them, please visit the Dani Johnson website.

After a bit of time searching online, I've managed to find a few different companies that really are run by Christian people and morals. Of the few I've found, one of the ones I recommend most partnering with is GBG.

GBG Stands for "Guided by God" and is founded by Stuart Finger. He is a Christian man who has been involved with multiple successful companies. In Stuart Finger's exact words, GBG is "designed for the little guy to succeed." With their low start-up cost of only $19.95 (+S&H), the risk of getting started is little to none. This is great because you can invest more of your time and money on your training and personal development.

GBG also has Builder Packs for those who want to get started at a higher more rapid rate. For more info about GBG, take a brief two minutes to watch video (above) and then simply visit GBGofNevada.com to learn more about the GBG Business Opportunity.

Regardless of which Christian home based business opportunity you choose to embark on, it is essential that you have the proper training so that you don't fail. Whether you are starting a traditional business or joining the pack of successful entrepreneurs in the interpersonal marketing industry, I whole heartedly recommend Dani Johnson. She is THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER business success coach after going from living out of her car with $2.03 to her name to creating not only several Millions for herself and her family, but also equipping thousands more to do the same. And the most beautiful thing of all is all of her training is based on biblical principles ... and they don't even know it ;-)
