they naturally interact with you on a   ond, try to get a brief introduction to
          daily  basis,  observing  your  God-  business,  accounting,  and  finance
          centered, Jesus-exalting life.  (classes,  or  introduction  from

           They see you show the Spirit?s fruit
          in a challenging and pressured work
          environment. They see your love for
          God  and  others.  Speaking  the
          gospel in words is, of course, nec-
          essary for Great Commission obe-
          dience. Sometimes, in some places,
          the clearest, most repeated procla-
          mation occurs in the context of es-

          We could say much more about all
          this, but we must return to our orig-
          inal  question  about  next  steps  for
          college  students  with  regard  to  a
                                  t
          job.  Unfortunately,  there  isn?  one
          answer that fits everyone. You need
                               r

          know that until later down the road.
          All that said, here?s how we?d advise
          you  moving  forward. First,  while in   down deep roots while still in your
          college,  look  for  internships  where   home country. Work hard at the job
          you  can  gain  business  or  profes-  God  gives  you  here  prior  to  your
          sional  skills  and  credentials.  Sec-
                                          departure.
