Finding the right Christian online business opportunity is a little scary. Just think about it. You’re planning to invest your time and money, and you certainly don’t want to choose the wrong company to help you.

If you do a search online, you’ll find thousands of opportunities just waiting for you to sign up. Where did these all come from? How do you know which one will give you all the tools, help, and support you need to get up and running?

I recently went through this entire process. It can be truly overwhelming without knowing some of the questions you should ask before you make a decision. As a Christian I wanted to work with a company that not only talked a good game, but was able to show me they were an honest company who would truly do what they said they would do.

Where Do I Start?

My first concern was that I had very little experience building a website. I was able to check my email and search for something online, but that was the extent of it. I read countless ads for companies claiming to “build a website in 15 minutes” or “be making money in as little as 24 hours.”

The trouble was….I couldn’t see any backend support. I couldn’t see anything except a template that someone built and now they were trying to convince me this should be the basis for my online business.

What about all the continuous building and changing that happens on a website? Did I have to take a bunch of HTML classes just so I’d know how to do all this stuff?

My second concern was whether the search engines would find me. I remember wondering how the entire process worked and who was going to teach me. There are alot of companies that promise they can help in this area. I just didn’t have a clue about which one to use or how to go about evaluating these kinds of companies.

And then of course, I wanted to know if my business would be profitable. Finding the right niche is a huge part of your ultimate success, or lack thereof. Of course, there is never a guarantee, but at least I wanted to know I was on the right track. I couldn’t imagine where to even start looking for answers about this one.

And the Answer is…

After it was all said and done, I arrived at some very specific things to look for as you’re choosing the right company:

Tip: Choose a company that can handle everything from start to finish, no matter your own strengths or weaknesses. Trying to piecemeal the site hosting and building from one company and then the search engine optimizing from another, and the other things you need like building a newsletter from yet another, will most certainly make your life alot more complicated.

Tip: Choose a company with a proven track record. What kind of results are their current clients getting? Are they willing to show you the number of their sites that are succeeding? You can bet they have an idea about how many of their sites fail and why.

Tip: Choose a company that gives you the tools to build your site that doesn’t require you to have a PHD in website building. There is a tremendous learning curve in the very beginning, so just make sure you’re working with a company that provides the structure to build your site as you learn so you’re not stuck for long periods of time in that learning curve.

Tip: Choose a company that allows all their site owners to talk to each other in an open forum. Check to see how often their forums are frequented. Ask for a guest pass so you can get the real flavor of the company.

Tip: Choose a company that gives you 24 hour/7 days a week, online technical support. There is nothing more difficult than trying to resolve a problem and your only option is to pay some expert somewhere to give you the guidance you need.

Tip: Don’t purchase unless you are very sure about the company’s refund policy. Choose a company that will let you try things out on a trial basis. Get your feet wet and see if the company you’ve chosen is really the one that will help you get where you want to go.

While it’s true that no company can do it for you, it’s also true that you can certainly help increase your odds of success if you choose the right company to help you. Working with a company that is honest and will stand behind you, helping every step of the way, is truly the Christian way of doing business.

One of the most interesting innovations on the internet world is Youtube. Google as a titan of internet knew how to use this dream of the million of people everywhere in the world: to be an actor.

All of us have a need to express our self, to be admired and to be somebody. So, there is an easy solution now: make a short movie or record something funny, sad or interesting and suddenly you became an actor seen by the whole world.

If I would have told this to my grandparents their answer would have been: “This is impossible. How can you be seen by people everywhere ? This is such a stupid idea.” But today this is such a normal thing, we talk for free with people on the other side of the earth and more than that we see each other.

Today we are able to immortalize the time and to post it in the whole world, to become famous. It looks like today there is an obsession about reality shows and each one of us can be a star on Youtube.

Following the same argument we can read in Hebrews 9:27-27 “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.”

Our normal answer is: “It is impossible, how to be a judgment? How can God record all the details of our life? ” Oops, sounds like our grandparents no?

If Google was able to create Youtube, what do you think about God ? The truth is that each one of as are actors on the scene of life. The reality show is recorded in by the divine Youtube Director, who by the way has enough storing space and enough bandwidth to record all our thoughts, all our words, all our intentions and all our actions.

It’s amazing isn’t it ? The only thing is that the rating will not bring you money or fame, but will decide your eternal destiny. The Judge will not be Google or other human spectators, but God Himself!

My friend, you are playing right now to role of your life, the role of your eternity. Your soul depends on this movie recorded in Heaven, on their super- Youtube, that’s why is very important what you do with your life.

This is the final judgment and no appeal is possible, that’s why is very important to play your reality show the best you can, cause you’ll get either a reward either an eternal punishment.
People are doubting today about Jesus’ Resurrection and about His second coming, but I remind you: everything is possible for God!

How do you live your life now? If God will end your movie today, what will be the rating of you lifetime movie ?

You still have a chance my friend, Jesus is promising to forgive and forget the sins of those who’ll receive Him as Lord and Savior today. He is ready to give you the chance of a fresh start and to delete the unwanted scenes of your life.

He is ready to be the new director of your movie promising you a prize and an eternity with Him in Heaven.

Will you accept this or you’ll be the author of your own failure ?

It’s up to you my friendand don’t forget you’re broadcasting right now on the divine Youtube and all God and His angels are looking to you.

In those days there were three computers, endowed equally by their makers with processing power, memory and addressable storage.

But Satan corrupted each operating system with the sly installation of spyware, browser hijackers and security holes until there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

The Maker, in His mercy, sent down His Holy Spirit to the despairing computers. The Holy Spirit appeared to each in the form of System Update to close the security holes and shore up the despairing software. It asked the question of each PC: Do you want to run System Update? and offering a checkbox saying “Always trust” the Maker.

The first PC, fearing yet another infection, quickly closed the update window. Within hours, the spyware already on it called out to legions of viruses and malware until the system shut down completely.

The second PC accepted the update, but was too frightened to check the “always trust” box. It sighed with relief as the Holy Spirit cleaned its systems and saved it from the worst of the demons. And it walked away with a false sense of security that it would be protected from future onslaughts. Within the month, spyware and malware crept back into the second PC and, before it could cry out to the Maker, it, too, crashed.

The third PC gratefully accepted the update and, in a leap of faith, checked the “always trust” box. Like the second PC, it received the merciful update from its Maker and began to feel much better. And then, as days and weeks went by, the Maker sent the Holy Spirit unbidden to shore up the PC’s systems — even when the PC was unaware it was being attacked.

Before long, the third PC was becoming famous among all its brethren for having the fewest problems, for working the fastest and for never seeming to worry when others crashed around it.

To those who asked, the third PC had only this advice: “Always trust the Maker.”
