The often-surprising truth for many people is that we all integrate faith into our work, but most of the time we're completely unaware of what faith underlies our attitudes and responses to our work.

All work flows from some underlying assumptions, and the content of that faith can dramatically change our expectations for our work.

I encounter many Christians who've been raised in the church but never realized that there's a cohesive storyline from Genesis to Revelation.

The gospel changes how we view and work with others in a way that both humanizes our interactions with them and empowers them to work well.

One reason why people find applying the Bible to work so difficult is that the world of Scriptures seems so distant from our modern world today. Many established realities we encounter daily, like non-profit and for-profit corporations, did not exist in the ancient world.

We were created for a purpose and when our underlying assumptions don't reflect this deeper purpose, we begin to whither as human beings.

When we think about our work it deals with our motivations, our desires, our sense of security, purpose, and status. Our work deals with a whole host of relationships. Work impacts the flourishing of individuals, communities, and nations.
