Letting our Jesus Freak flag fly By Edwin Woodruff Tait Acton University, obviously, has a lot to say about economics. All the sessions deal with economic matters in one way or another.

10 Steps Toward Becoming a Culturally Engaged Church

Last updated on: June 15, 2015 at 1:17 pm By Jeff Haanen

We’ve made huge strides in the past several years on bringing the topic of work to church. But I’ve noticed an ongoing tension. It’s a tension between what we say about work on Sunday and what we do (or don’t do). On the one hand, talk of “faith & work” and cultural engagement have been popping up across the evangelical landscape. From Lecrae waxing eloquent on the sacred/secular divide at Liberty University to the forthcoming publication of a Faith and Work... Read more

Helping the middle class: part 2 of a interview with Gloria Nelund

Last updated on: June 15, 2015 at 12:48 pm By Ethix

[Read the beginning of our interview, reprinted from Ethix, in yesterday’s post.] Why did you start TriLinc Global? I wanted to be able to use all of my experience, my contacts, and everything that I’ve developed in my 30-year successful career on Wall Street to do good in the world. That’s the simple answer. The bigger story is, I wanted to use the rest of my life to serve God. I used to always think that in order to... Read more

Why we can–and should–grieve at work

Last updated on: June 22, 2015 at 10:26 am By Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics

By Kristin Brown (reprinted from the blog of the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics.) I learned of Vice President Joe Biden’s son’s death in church last Sunday. This was not the first time this family has gone through grief. In 1972, he lost his first wife and daughter in a car accident, the year he was first elected to the Senate. While there is much to remember and appreciate about his son, Beau Biden, I was drawn to read... Read more

The resurrection of the body in our work

Last updated on: June 9, 2015 at 2:39 pm By Oikonomia Network

By Nathan Hitchcock Note: This article is part of a series that considers various ways our work anticipates, in the present, the future reality of the consummated Kingdom. The entire series was originally published at Die Evangelischen Theologen, from which this version was adapted and published at Oikonomia Network. When Christians go to work, they do so to lift up human bodies. They perform medical tasks, as in the nurse who provides rehabilitative care to a post-op patient. They study... Read more

Co-Workers Are Not Projects: Evangelizing in the Workplace

Last updated on: June 18, 2015 at 11:47 pm By Center for Faith and Work, LeTourneau University

This is the conclusion to a debate in Patheos Head-to-Head and is a response to John Shore’s post “What Jesus Must Think When Listening to Evangelizers.” By Bill Peel The debate about whether it’s ever appropriate to share our faith and engage in evangelism in the workplace has been a reminder to me of how hurt and hostile some people are as a result of our lack of love and grace as Christians. While enemies of Christ exist, I doubt... Read more
