When she rejected his marriage proposal, van Gogh suffered a breakdown. He threw away all his books except for the Bible, and devoted his life to God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>He became angry with people at work, telling customers not to buy the &#8220;worthless art,&#8221; and was eventually fired from the Gallary.<\/p>\n<p>Van Gogh then taught in a Methodist boys&#8217; school, and also preached to the congregation.<\/p>\n<p>Although raised in a religious family, it wasn&#8217;t until this time that he seriously began to consider devoting his life to the church. Hoping to become a minister, he prepared to take the entrance exam to the School of Theology in Amsterdam. After a year of studying diligently, he refused to take the Latin exams, calling Latin a &#8220;dead language&#8221; of poor people, and was subsequently denied entrance.<\/p>\n<p>In the winter of 1878, van Gogh volunteered to move to an impoverished coal mine in the south of Belgium, a place where preachers were usually sent as punishment.<\/p>\n<p>He preached and ministered to the sick, and also drew pictures of the miners and their families, who called him &#8220;Christ of the Coal Mines.&#8221; The evangelical committees were not as pleased. They disagreed with van Gogh&#8217;s lifestyle, which had begun to take on a tone of martyrdom.<\/p>\n<p>They refused to renew van Gogh&#8217;s contract, and he was forced to find another occupation.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Vincent Van Gogh's Life\" href=\"http:\/\/www.biography.com\/people\/vincent-van-gogh-9515695\">Source: Biography.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In June of 1873, Vincent van Gogh worked a the Groupil Gallery in London.
