Absolutely! Contingent, of course, upon the proper definition of both terms, Christian and Success.
If my reading of scripture is correct the true Christian will define success as being in the will and purpose of God. That will and purpose will include many common certainties, but will also include different paths in life for you, me, and everyone else.
Mother Teresa gave a good part of her life's work to the poorest of the poor in Calcutta India - rejecting a life of ease and comfort that she had earlier known. Was she less successful than Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, or Steve Jobs?
Somewhere in between those extreme examples will be found your life and mine. We can define our level of success any way we want, but in the end only one definition will matter.
What does success mean to you?
