The Apostle Paul worked as a tent maker. Even during his travels to the Gentiles spreading the Good News and giving instructions to the Churches, he continued to work as a tent maker.
I have always liked this about the Apostle. I found it to be kinda neat that here was the Apostle Paul making earthly homes for people while teaching them about a Saviour who was making Heavenly homes for them. Paul the tent maker and Jesus the mansion maker.
No, there is no great theological meaning to this comparison, just kinda of a nice story I supose, but I like to think about it sometimes.
