Bringing faith and work together: God’s vision for work and faith integration
When I worked in corporate America, I often found it challenging to integrate my faith and work comfortably. Now it’s a little easier as I run a faith-filled company, but I still struggle in some areas.
The Bible clearly states that faith and work go hand in hand and that we can use scripture, theology, and Biblical values to guide our work and daily work problems and decisions.
After becoming a Christian later in life, Denise Lee Yohn wanted to find ways to integrate her new faith into her career as a keynote speaker, consultant, and writer on brand leadership. What she learned on her path of faith and work integration led her to found the Faith & Work Journey, which offers spiritual formation and professional development experiences that help Christian professionals cultivate a vital integration of their faith and work.
Listen in as Denise and I discuss the full vision for faith and work integration and ways you can faithfully steward your work and use your faith to guide your steps in the workplace. Stick around for the bonus at the end, where we chat about the importance of rest and how rest can be a tangible way to present your faith in the workplace.
