55. A Cool LifeWork Story
Today we hear from the Executive Director of LifeWork First about her passion for bringing God into the workplace. And then, we’ll hear the “cool” story of two guys that were brought together while going through the LifeWork Leadership program, all for the Glory of God!
For her dissertation, Dr. Tammie McClafferty wrote about balancing her priorities as a Christian working mom. For years she struggled with guilt for choosing to continue to work rather than to stay home with her kids. A guilt that had been instilled and perpetuated by the Church. But the truth is, Scripture is full of examples of women called to the marketplace that were able to use their work as a tool to increase God’s Kingdom! LifeWork Leadership helps Christ-followers make their work, their mission field.
Two participants in LifeWork Leadership, are a perfect example of this. Nathan and Edmund ended up seated together at the same table during the conference. After experiencing an instant connection, they met up for lunch. Well, lunch led to collaboration on several real estate deals and eventually Nathan and Edmund purchased an air conditioning business called EAC Jax that strives to bring the LifeWork principles into the marketplace! Talk about cool!
