Christ-centered knife making: Is it just a business or a mission from God?

In the United States, John Roy, the CEO of Dawson Knives, experienced a significant transformation in his life through faith. John grew up dismissing religion as unimportant and was a staunch believer in science and tangible results. He felt church was largely pointless during his formative years. However, after facing a period of homelessness where he lived out of his car, John realized that the pursuit of material happiness often left him feeling empty. This challenging experience prompted him to give faith a chance and open himself up to the possibility of God's presence in his life. Shortly after embracing faith, he met his future wife, and they married a few years later. This personal reinvention fueled his passion for his business, where he emphasizes a commitment to making durable, trustworthy tools as a reflection of his beliefs. Each knife and sword produced by Dawson Knives is considered not merely a tool but rather a creation meant to glorify God. John ardently believes that the sword symbolizes God's truth rather than serving individual desires. His journey encapsulates the idea that sometimes it takes losing everything to discover what is truly valuable and meaningful in life, both personally and spiritually.
