I once read an article in the newspaper about how a young man taught himself how to make money from the internet. He had a day job but surfed the internet everyday from 11pm to 3am to figure out how to make money - he did this for 5 years and was eventually able to make real BIG money.
I was both inspired and ashamed; inspired by his tenacious drive, entrepreneurial spirit, and boundless energy - but ashamed that I didn't spend even a fraction of his effort in the mission that Christ has given me: to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:18-20)
Just imagine if every Christian would make similar efforts to figure out how to evangelise creatively and effectively in this materialistic world... let's all cultivate in ourselves a spirit of Holy Entrepreneurship and spare no effort in building God's Kingdom!
