Ken Ham on Running a Business as a Christian

Much of the practical aspects of running a business will be the same for a Christian and a non-Christian; it will involve the same kinds of tasks, the same workflow, and much of the same problem solving.

As Christians, we should be applying the biblical worldview to all of life, including how we work in the marketplace or run our businesses.

But as Christians, we should be applying the biblical worldview to all of life, including how we work in the marketplace or run our businesses. And there is no neutrality—not in anything! In all of life, you are either for Christ or against Him; you are gathering with Him or scattering; there is light and darkness, rock and sand. So while some things may be the same, everything should definitely not be the same when you’re applying a truly biblical worldview.

I recently sat down with a Christian business podcast, Hundredfold Business Podcast, to discuss the business side of the ministry of Answers in Genesis and how God uniquely prepared me, not just for ministry but also for serving as CEO of a massive organization—Answers in Genesis—along with its attractions, the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. I hope this advice is helpful to other Christians running organizations or businesses.

We praise the Lord for what He’s done over the past 50 years as He grew this ministry into what it is today, including the world’s two leading Christian themed attractions.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
