Have you always wanted to start a business but have no idea where to start? We’ve been there! There are so many benefits to starting your own business, especially when you have a firm foundation in Christ and a desire to build wealth for the right reasons.

We are currently creating a game-changing app specifically designed to help connect Christian business owners with an audience of customers who share their love for Christ!

We’re creating a community-based platform where Christians can support Christians, and we can keep more wealth in the hands of people who know Jesus is Lord!

So if you’ve found yourself here, we encourage you to start dreaming big and invite God into your business venture from the get-go. If He’s placed it on your heart to start a business, recognize that He’s likely put it there for a reason.

We encourage you to pray for His guidance and direction and prepare to embrace business life with God by your side.

Here are 100+ business ideas to help you get your mind running with possibilities!

Product-Based Business Ideas

Clothing:

Wearing faith-illuminating clothing is an easy and subtle way to share the message of Christ with people you pass by in your daily life.

Imagine designing your own merchandise that weaves messages of your faith into your unique perspective on design and fashion.

The more people wear Christian-themed merchandise, the more seeds may be planted as we pass people by in public!

Handmade goods:

I have always loved browsing craft stores and seeing the unique things people are capable of creating.

Vessel is being created to be the Etsy for Christians. It will help you get your creations in front of people who want to support your small business and would love to buy your unique designs for friends and family.

So whether you’re into crochet, candle making, or bath bombs, you can find an audience that will support you and your business venture once Vessel is officially launched!

Pottery

We based our idea for Vessel on 2 Timothy 2:21. I have always loved the idea that we are vessels in God’s eyes and can be used for amazing things through His grace, power, and provision if we place our faith in Him.

You can take your pottery business to the next level with the Vessel app and create handmade plates, bowls, and more for people who would love to know that it’s made by someone who shares the same adoration for Christ.

Jewelry

I have seen so many beautiful videos of Christian girlies online praying over the packages of jewelry they’re sending to their customers!

Since jewelry adds delicate beauty to our God-sculpted bodies, it is bound to be an extremely popular niche in Vessel!

Skincare:

At this point, we all know that many of the products in commercial stores today contain ingredients that our skin should never touch.

That’s where you can make a difference by designing skin care products that are created more mindfully with ingredients that don’t harm our temples.

Think about all the possibilities, you could create your own faith-rooted brand of creams, scrubs, moisturizers, and more!

Clothing Boutique

Love fashion and have a unique style of clothes you’d love to feature in your own shop? Create an entire boutique of your favorite finds to help Christians find more modest fashion looks they love!

Bibles

Vessel is an app hand-designed for Christians, so you can bet bible sales will be popular on Vessel!

If you’re artistic, imagine hand-painting Bible covers to capture what you envision Psalm 23 or another memorable Bible story to look like in art form.

Or creating Bibles already made with gorgeous Bible tabs or engaging in study/journaling of Bibles to help Christians go deeper in their Bible studies.

The possibilities are endless, and one thing’s for sure…People love collecting beautiful Bibles!

Pet Supplies

Our furry companions are among God’s most remarkable gifts to us. They make life so much sweeter, so it’s only right that we spoil them!

Imagine having your own pet supply business where you can create custom collars, leashes, dog treats, and more!

Cards

I think creating a Christian card business would be lovely and do very well on Vessel. You could design cards for every occasion, such as weddings, birthdays, graduations, etc., and have a blast thinking of beautiful ways to incorporate your faith into your card making!

Baby products:

The baby niche is so widespread that it is ripe with opportunity for sellers who want to uniquely incorporate their faith into a business venture that is near and dear to the hearts of many.

Consider designing baby onesies, baby books, diapers, baby swings, and more!

The possibilities are endless in the baby department!

Service-Based Businesses Ideas:

Personal Training

Christian personal trainers have a unique opportunity to combine their faith with fitness and help people understand that maintaining physical health is an extension of how we can mindfully steward our bodies to glorify God.

With Vessel, you can set up personal training sessions with local trainees who share your faith nearby. And can offer online services to help people plan their workouts and help people understand how to approach their individual fitness goals with a faith emphasis!

Nutritional Advising

Meal planning can be intimidating when you’re first starting out. By helping people plan and understand meal planning around their individual goals, you can help eliminate some of the friction that comes with making lifestyle changes.

Food really causes so many of the physical, mental, and emotional ailments people struggle with today, and you can help Christians feel better and therefore be more effective for the kingdom of God!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Life can be so hard to navigate, especially when you’re a Christian. We are called to cast our burdens on God, but we can also lean on our brothers and sisters when we’re navigating life’s complex and challenging situations.

If you are a licensed therapist you can integrate your faith into your therapy sessions and help Christian clients to process things in biblically affirming ways.

Note: Vessel will use discretion regarding the types of therapies welcomed on the platform. Practices like Reiki, EFT, hypnotherapy, and the like will not be permitted.

Interior Designer:

Love design and want to connect to a client base who share your passion for Christ?

With Vessel, you can post images of your latest interiors and bring your faith-based values into your client relations. Help them to create their dream interiors and do it all with the love of Christ!

Freelance writing/editing:

Have a passion for writing?

As a blog owner myself, finding a freelance writer to help me create content became instrumental in the success of my website.

You can offer your writing, editing, or consulting services to help people hone in on their vision and create quality content to advance their goals.

Illustrator:

Another one of my dreams is to write Christian children’s books eventually. However, I am not adept at creating art and would be looking for someone to help me capture my vision through exciting and visually appealing illustrations.

You can be the answer for people who need someone with a knack for art. You can work with clients and draw, paint, or artistically bring their vision to life!

Graphic designer:

If there’s one thing every business needs to succeed and establish its brand, it’s a unique logo that customers will remember.

Graphic designers can help businesses capture their vision and communicate their message through visual concepts to inspire, inform, and captivate customers.

Since Vessel is a website designed for Christian business owners, you can bet many people will be looking to hire a graphic designer to help them communicate their business vision memorably!

Content Creation:

Content is the name of the game for so many businesses now! To grow your reach and impact, you must create quality content that clearly and concisely communicates your services, products, message, or value.

If you’re adept at creating content, you can help brands grow their social media presence by advising them, helping them create content, and helping them better understand the social media landscape!

Financial advising

If you’re a good steward of money and have made a career out of it, you could be the solution to helping individuals and families achieve their financial goals by providing them with guidance and strategies.

Help Christian families blend their faith with managing their finances and help them make mindful choices about spending, donating, retirement, and more.

Virtual Assistance Services:

When you’re running a small business, hiring a VA to help you keep all the business’s moving parts in line can be instrumental.

On Vessel, you can communicate your expertise, credentials, and services to potential clients and explain how your services can help them improve the functionality and organization of their businesses.

Travel Planner:

If you’re an expert travel planner, you can take so much of the stress off of people desiring to enjoy their vacation by helping them book planes, hotels, rental cars, excursions, and restaurants.

You can combine your Christian-based values with your knowledge of travel to help families focus on having fun, relaxing, and making memories on their vacation.

Makeup consultation

I have always wanted to look nice, but I lack confidence in choosing makeup shades that best suit my skin tone. And since I don’t want to spend money on the wrong shade, I just never get it done!

If you’re terrific at makeup and could help people choose products and makeup styles to help them feel the most confident!

Personal Stylist

One service I would pay for in a heartbeat is hiring someone to help me find outfits that match my style. I get overwhelmed at the idea of buying clothing, but if I had someone willing to help me create cute outfits and tell me where to buy the clothes, that would be a game-changer for me!

Music recording, mixing & mastering

Christian music is becoming more widespread, and many faith-based artists are seeking to find music producers and engineers who understand their passions for God and the messages they try to convey in their songs.

You can provide various services, from engineering live recording sessions to making beats and remote mixing/mastering for Christian musical artists, and help faith-centered music make a bigger impact in the world.

Local Business Ideas:

Restaurant or coffee shop:

I went to a cafe in North Conway, NH, last year, and I could tell these people were Christians by the way they radiated the love of Christ to their customers. Their faith was also interwoven into the details in their cafe, from having Bible verses written on the walls and coffee mugs to Christian music playing in the background.

I also go to a coffee shop nearby that has a table with free Bibles and a small library of Christian books that customers can borrow.

There are so many beautiful ways to integrate your faith in Christ into a restaurant or coffee shop that can subtly plant seeds of faith!

Integrate faith into your trade:

Are you a plumber, an electrician, a carpenter, a handyman, a landscaper, or an HVAC technician?

After we launch, you can advertise your business locally on Vessel so Christian customers can support you in your trade.

I’ve even seen individuals put crosses on their company merchandise or trucks to communicate that their loyalty is to Christ and their business is built on Christian values.

Regardless, if you’re a tradesman with faith in Christ, there is a place for you on Vessel!

Photographer/Videographer:

There has always been a fantastic market for photography and videography services. Imagine helping other people who share your faith capture the most important memories in their lives. Connect with people looking for wedding, professional, maternity, infant, graduation photos, or whatever niche of photography you love. And watch your business grow as your clients share your work with their other faith-based friends and family members!

As a videographer, you can use your expertise to help other Christian companies film quality content for their businesses, projects, and visions. Post examples of your work on Vessel to garner a following, then set your prices, services, and level of expertise to connect with customers who are also seeking to glorify God within their own ideas!

Organic Farming

Don’t get me started on the over-processed food for sale in the grocery stores! We all know that it isn’t what God intended us to be eating!

If you have a farm or are passionate about gardening, consider selling locally to other people who share your love for God and natural food.

You can list the kinds of produce you sell, and people can come pick it up locally!

Wedding planner

Marriage is a gift from God, and for couples who recognize this, having a wedding planner help them make it as much of a faith-based event as possible would be invaluable.

Imagine working with couples who love the Lord as much as you do. Where you could implement your adorable faith-based ideas into their wedding and have God be glorified all the more during their big day!

Baby sitter/ Child care provider:

As a single mama, I would absolutely love to find a local childcare facility built on Christian values. I firmly believe there is a need for services like this pretty much everywhere!

Imagine having your own daycare filled with children whom you can teach about the love of Christ in their itty-bitty days! You can help build a firm foundation for these kids and help families establish Christian values early on in their lives.

Or if you love kiddos and want to find other faith-based families to serve locally as a babysitter, you can set up a profile on Vessel, list your credentials, and get to work!

Homeschool tutor:

As more and more Christian families are moving away from the public school systems because of their egregious anti-Christian teachings, more people are seeking alternatives.

However, not all parents are in a position to handle the responsibility of pulling their children out of school and homeschooling them on top of work and other responsibilities.

You can make a significant difference in children’s lives by offering your homeschooling services to families who want to feel comfortable knowing their child is learning from someone who understands and mutually values their Christian convictions.

With Vessel’s in-app phone and video chat features, you can schedule online tutoring sessions for people who are not geographically close to you.

You can also create homeschool curriculum, worksheets, and parent/teacher resources to sell on Vessel!

Elderly care provider

This is one of my absolute favorite ideas on this list because, wow, is this needed. If you’re a CNA or nurse and have a passion for helping elderly people, you can make a difference in their lives as they age.

There are so many people who are reluctant to put their parents in an elderly care facility because it gets lonely in there for them.

Imagine how much of a difference you could make for someone in their older years.

Vessel can connect you with people who are looking for this kind of service.

Professional chef services:

You don’t have to be a private chef to utilize your exceptional culinary skills. Believe it or not, there is probably a ton of people nearby you that would love to hire your services to help with meal prepping, hiring you to cook delicious meals for their dietary limitations, and more!

Hair stylist/barber shop

Wouldn’t it be amazing to help clients feel their best and get to talk faith with them as you’re doing their hair?

I would personally love to support a Christian-based hair stylist!

There are so many ways to incorporate your faith into your business, and I pray these ideas have inspired you to start building your own! Below is a list of other products, services, and local businesses worth exploring. We pray that you invite God into your vision and see what beautiful things come out of it.

And if you are reading this, you have the advantage of knowing about Vessel early on, which means if you start planning now, you can be one of the very first on the platform!

Imagine the generational wealth you could build with a faith-based business, the resources you’d have to pour back into ministry, and how you could literally help to build a more widespread Christian economy so the wealth of God’s people could be built collectively.

There are so many amazing possibilities, and I hope you will consider joining us on the Vessel app in January 2026!
