A slow leak

Last updated on: May 2, 2015 at 3:40 pm   By Guest Contributor

By Mike Coyner Recently the left rear tire on my car starting losing air. My car has a warning light to let me know when a tire is low on air pressure, so each time the warning light came on I would stop at a gas station and put some more air into the tire. With modern tires it is almost impossible to tell a tire is low just by looking at it, so I was grateful for the warning... Read more

10 things you don’t know about the Clapham Sect

Last updated on: May 2, 2015 at 4:15 pm   By Chris Armstrong

Attending the Q Conference in Boston this past week, I was reminded that almost any evangelical who wants to leverage their vocation to change the world takes William Wilberforce’s Clapham group as a sort of knights-of-the-round-table paradigm. But few seem to know much about this remarkable group. So as a public service, here’s my . . . 10 Things You Don’t Know about the Clapham Sect First the basics: The Clapham Sect was a group of aristocratic evangelical Anglicans, prominent... Read more

My thousand Eucharists

Last updated on: April 28, 2015 at 3:51 pm   By Jennifer Woodruff Tait

This post is part of a symposium between the Catholic, Evangelical, and Faith and Work Channels on spiritual disciplines for work. It started over 20 years ago, the weekly walk to the front of the room. I was a lonely, somewhat puzzled seminary student, seeking something sustaining. Worship, certainly. I had worshiped my whole life. Growing up Methodist meant a lot of that worship was singing, “lustily and with good courage.” Prayer, certainly. I had prayed my whole life. Growing... Read more

Your job is NOT a vocation

Last updated on: April 24, 2015 at 9:07 am   By Oikonomia Network

By Malcolm B. Yarnell III Today we use words like “calling” and “vocation” in association with jobs and tasks. However, these are external circumstances that the world can change or take away. Martin Luther’s experience can help us appreciate how our true vocation rests at a deeper level, one that can never be taken from us. In a critical moment of his life, Martin Luther was afflicted with difficult questions of purpose that continue to afflict the consciences of well-meaning... Read more

A poem for #EarthDay. Careful where you walk.

Last updated on: April 22, 2015 at 3:45 pm   By Jennifer Woodruff Tait

Here’s a poem about God’s good creation for this day when we celebrate that creation…..  (P.S. This is not Hopkins’s first appearance on this blog. Check out this poem about vocation. Or at least I think it’s about vocation.) “God’s Grandeur” The world is charged with the grandeur of God. It will flame out, like shining from shook foil; It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod? Generations... Read more

Atheism growing in the workplace

Last updated on: April 14, 2015 at 12:24 pm   By Center for Faith and Work, LeTourneau University

Reprinted from the Center for Faith and Work at LeTourneau University. We encourage you also to read a post that appeared in this space recently, “I once was found but now am lost,” and some of the resources it links to. If it seems like more and more people in your workplace disdain faith in God, it’s not your imagination. An extensive new Barna Group study found that the number of atheists in America is growing. With atheists and agnostics... Read more

Christian hipsterprenuers work to redeem capitalism

Last updated on: April 18, 2015 at 3:03 pm   By Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics

By Elise Amyx The media has decided that millennials don’t make any sense. For good reason. In September 2011, millennials helped take over New York City’s Zuccotti Park to “Occupy Wall Street,” waving anti-capitalist signs in the air. But just two months later, William Deresiewicz of the New York Times contended that the millennial hero isn’t the hippie, reformer, or scientist, but the entrepreneur. Millennials love socialism one minute and hate big government the next. The generation is confused. Christian... Read more
