Illinois Tops 2011 List of Best Christian Workplaces

According to a recent survey by the Best Christian Workplaces Institute (BCWI), Illinois appears to be the top state for businesses that provide the best Christian working environment.

Locations were ranked by judging them in a range of areas including missions, schools, and camps.

Illinois came out as home to seven employers that provide the best Christian workplaces, according to BCWI's 2011 list, with most of those employers in the education sector.
