Christian Witness

I know a business woman who continues to come up against roadblocks set up by establishment men. She is a woman of faith and her current business endeavors include reaching out into the faith community. Some of the entities she contacted have not returned her calls and she said, “I’m afraid even the Christians don’t like me very much.” I don’t know the details behind her thoughts and feelings, but it is a reminder to me that we, as individuals and as businesses, have a responsibility when we put on the name Christian. Peter said, “Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us” (1 Peter 2:12 NIV).
