What They're Saying About Crossroads Career® Ministries

"The magic of this (the wonder of God's guiding hand) is that the week before I would have turned down the job. It was less money (on the surface) than I had been seeking and it was a much further drive than I had thought I would be willing to make. But it had the secret ingredient I had just discovered in Crossroads; I needed -- HAD TO HAVE -- a sense of participating in something that was contributing to lives in a very positive way."

"It has been such a joy for me, as a pastor, to see lay leaders emerge and take ownership of this ministry... We have a solid and fully staffed team of leaders for all the facets of the ministry with more coming. It has also been so exciting to see the Explorers come every month. Overall, the response has been so positive and in so many ways. I could probably bore you with all kinds of stories but suffice to say, if we can ever be a reference to other churches that are considering starting this ministry at their church, we would love to be of service."

---

"This is a unique ministry and I'm very thankful that there's a Christian organization I can turn to during this time. I think the Explorer's Guide will be helpful in assessing my skills and articulating them during interviews or encounters with prospective employers."

---

"You can say that this unemployment/underemployment period has caused me to focus my life on what is important - God, family and the many blessings that we do not know that we have. This is a wonderful Christian networking group and it has changed my life forever."

---

"I wanted to thank you and everyone for the work and prayers that were given. I want to say that more was done for me through your group than any employment agency that I went to, not only in the area of hunting a job but also in my spiritual growth. I will always be indebted to all of you."

"I attended last night's meeting . . . It was a drink of cool water on this journey of faith in a career transition. The speaker gave a great presentation on recruiting services and writing resumes. I received a few contact names to follow through on. The best part was watching God's hand guide us and touch each life there."

---

"I just wanted to thank you for your help, support and spiritual guidance. It was refreshing to hear, 'God cares, and so do I; so let me help with your resume.' I am refreshed to see that there are many loving men and women out there doing God's work instead of just restating God's words. "

"Crossroads Career® Network has been a great blessing for our congregation and the community, but perhaps the greatest impact I have witnessed is the impact it has had on our volunteers. We are seeing volunteer members of our congregation becoming ministers in the marketplace through this unique ministry."

---

"Over a 50-year span, the average American spends about 100,000 hours working. A major part of adults' lives is involved in work, but often with the job comes some degree of dissatisfaction. That's why I am so excited about the Crossroads Career® Network, a Christ-centered, volunteer-led network of career ministries in churches. Over the past ten years this ministry has helped thousands of people. The program considers the practical, emotional and spiritual levels of job and career planning and transition. More than finding a job or changing careers, the Crossroads Career® Ministries help people discern God's calling for their lives. There is an incredible opportunity to reach people for Christ in the marketplace."

---

"I recommend that your church consider joining the Crossroads Career® Network and ask for your support for expanding the borders of this ministry."

---

"It is with confidence that I recommend Crossroads Career® Network to churches who would like to establish a marketplace ministry to those who are in a career transition. What a timely ministry this is. I have known the principals of this organization for a number of years and they are of the utmost integrity and competence to be able to offer legitimate counsel and advice to those who have this tremendous need of making a career change."
