Salespeople That Minister

I've  been in sales before .   For 10 years, I worked in Christian retail .   I  actually worked  at a Christian bookstore inside of a church .   Every day I had to manage employees, manage stock, keep track of sales, and please the people that owned the store .   I loved selling people things they needed .   I sold lots of Bibles .   I sold  lots of  books .   I sold  lots of  gifts .   I sold a lot of music .   I saw the joy of matching the right product with the right customer .   I knew I  wasn't  just a salesperson .   I knew I  wasn't  just a bookstore manager .   I knew that I was in full-time ministry in a Christian bookstore .   I knew that what I did every day was  making  a difference .   Imagine a world where all the salespeople quit  to go  into full-time ministry .   That's  not  a world  I want to live in.
