A new year often brings the needed impetus for change. Here at the Center for Faith & Work, we understand that this is a season when you may be contemplating, “What am I doing with my life?” Time passes too quickly and when the new year hits, we ought to ask these kinds of probing questions. With this in mind, on January 22nd, Brad Katsuyama (CEO and co-founder of the IEX, the Investors Exchange) and myself will be speaking on Calling: Faithfulness in the Present. This is the first of a two-part event we will host to unpack the ever important notion of calling.

Perhaps 2015 is the year you want to examine your industry through a gospel lens and grow in your understanding of how you can integrate these two inseparable areas of faith and work. You’ve put it off long enough, and we hope you’ll sign up to take one of our upcoming Vocational Intensives (3-month), the new Faith & Entrepreneurship Course or the new Faith & Fashion Course all beginning in February. We hope this year you will experience an awakening to see how the gospel not only changes us, but everything we do!

Sincerely,

 

 

Executive Director, Center for Faith & Work
