Entrepreneurial ministry

Below is a list that Reader's Digest took from sba.gov in their most recent issue. The essential traits for being an entrepreneur:

- Creative
- Innovative
- Driven to achieve
- Persistent
- Energetic
- Inquisitive
- Competitive
- Unafraid to fail
- Hard worker
- Independent
- Self-confident
- Risk-taker
- Visionary
- Problem-solver
- Organized
- Lucky

Obviously, for believers this list has to be revised. However, if you consider the basic requirements of going into a church-building scenario, you are looking at needing to be an entrepreneur. I found the list somewhat thought-provoking. Ponder the list through a Biblical lens... it will show short-comings in your life. And then, just be "lucky." :) Or rather, trust in a Father who loves you and cares for you.
