Bringing Humanity Back Into The Workplace

“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” – Romans 12:2  eternalleadership/ep156

No matter where we live or work, we are called to minister those around us. One of the greatest hindrances to people knowing Jesus is when we act one way at church and another way elsewhere. The way we live for God should connect all areas of life and the workplace is no exception.

This is exactly the message of our wonderful guest for today, Jim Brangenberg host of the iwork4him radio show whose mission is to be involved in purposely equipping vibrantly effective Christ-followers in the workplace.

“Our workplace is our mission field and in that mission field you and I may be the only Jesus our co-workers and employees will ever meet.” Jim Brangenberg

We are surrounded by people who are hurting and this is why Jim advocates that we should all start praying for our co-workers and bosses and see how our heart changes in the process. He believes in bringing humanity back into the workplace through prayer and service.

“You have a high calling…You may be the only hope for the people that you work alongside with. If you don’t bring your faith to work they may spend an eternity separated from God possibly because you didn’t share with them the hope that you have in Jesus. You have an incredible opportunity right where you’re at don’t be in such a hurry to chase after a dream in another place because you are uncomfortable. Start praying to God to help you see your workplace as a mission field and your life will never be the same again.”Jim Brangenberg
