Find Christian Links Emerges
In 2009 I began exploring the possibility of expanding the site even further and at the same time updating the look. These musings led to the beginnings of Find Christian Links. After months of rebuilding, Christian Connections Unlimited was officially replaced by Find Christian Links in August 2009. Along with a myriad of links to Christian products, services, resources, and ministries, this site features more information and links about how you can take a stand for what you believe in and a multitude of ways you can reach out to touch others.
This is a place where seekers can learn about Jesus. Where believers can connect, share ideas about ministry and methods that have—or haven't—worked for them. My hope is that through these links seekers will find Jesus through the Word, believers will be encouraged to reach out to others with His love, people involved in ministry will be helped and encouraged—and that together we can make an eternal difference.
Please take time to explore the site. Come back often—I will continually add new links. And I'd love to hear your comments and suggestions. Email me anytime at .
God bless you,

More About Karen Burkett . . .
Developing, creating, organizing . . . that's me. I am an idea person who loves going into a situation and making it better. Or starting from scratch to develop something new. I thrive on new challenges and hard work.
I am a published writer with more than fifteen years' experience including trade magazine articles and various Christian writing and editing projects—books, articles, syllabi, study guides, website features, daily devotionals, brochures, radio messages, video scripts, television spots, grants and more.
Wife, mother, grandmother, writer, editor, Bible teacher, ministry director, retailer, pastoral assistant, motel operator, campaign worker, library assistant . . . These and many more words have described me at times throughout my life. The description serving as an umbrella over all that, however, is "follower of Jesus Christ."
Through the years and many learning experiences—both failures and victories—I have come to the realization that the one real focus of my life must be to accomplish the purpose of the journey God has for me. Only God knows that complete purpose—my job is to trust him day by day to help me stay on his path.
