Because of the internet, I believe the ministry opportunties that exist to fulfill one’s career is phenomenal. The career choice opportunities for ministry are beyond anything the faith world has ever experienced.
People come to me often seeking career change advice. As a Health Care Chaplain, I share out of my own life experience, describing how my personal career change journey has taken me to several career arenas over my life time.
So as you seek career change advice leading to career change opportunities, just think of me as your Personal Guide On Your Change Career Journey.
Those considering a career change within the arena of a faith based occupation often want to find answers to this key question: “How can I make a career change and still serve God?” In other words, could a different career path be chosen and still fulfill God’s purpose?
Your faith should help you define your purpose as well as provide the inner spiritual resources as you research ministry career opportunities.
I find that for many the concept of faith based ministry careers is limited to pastoring a local church congregation. In fact, as I reflect on it, whether said or not, when I was a pastor, it seemed there was a mindset that to leave pastoring was to leave ministry.
Of course, I have discovered that my greatest and most fulfilling ministry has been beyond pastoring a local church. I do not say that with bitterness or because I was forced out or because I had to leave for some reason. I am amazed at the ministry opportunities that I have in my role as a health care chaplain.
Even beyond my chaplaincy career, my internet ministry has given me great satisfaction and fulfillment as people around the world have read my articles on purposeful ministry careers. How rewarding to have people with a heart for ministry thank me for helping them reframe their concept of leaving ministry into a concept of expanding ministry.
Education is learning how to better your mind so that you can better your world. While formal education opportunities provide most of the training needed for a career change, most of us will use our Master’s Degree From the College of Hard Knocks to pursue career change opportunities.

The medical field is where my career change strategies led me as a health care chaplain. Investigating the medical field may tweak your interest too, as you explore phenomenal health care career opportunities, with the many jobs health care facilities offer.
Ministry possibilities to consider are social worker career opportunities, career change opportunities for nurses, and many other health care careers that meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of people.

Internet career opportunities are motivating purposeful career examination by many internet entrepreneurs. Explore challenging career opportunities that are within the reach of more of us than we realize.
Money is often the underlying factor in a career change decision. The truth is that you are either a consumer or a provider in the world of personal finance. I believe that understanding that simple statement can open up tremendous career change opportunities!
Ministry career options abound in helping people financially. I have been impressed with several financially oriented ministry careers geared at helping people establish their own businesses. This is because it truly is a worldwide marketplace, harnessing the internet’s impact on creating business opportunities.
I served as a Workplace Chaplain who is also a mortgage broker as he launches a new church start in San Diego. He told me that his efforts to help people survive financially in San Diego has also been a basis to minister to them through his personal finance ministry.
In your personal career quest to change career, with purpose, you will not only find job search tools, career change resources, home business ideas, but also spiritual counsel and career guidance.

Thank you for embarking on your purpose driven journey. As you do career change planning, my prayer is that God will bless you indeed. As you expand your ministry concept, my challenge to you, as you change career with purpose, is this: Focus on your Purpose, Passion, and God-given Dreams.
