WP313 Interview with Denise Lee Yohn
Denise Lee Yohn calls it Faith and Work Integration. The labels vary, but the central question is always “How does our Christian faith relate to our work lives?” Is the answer the same for all workers—or is it different depending on our job specialty? How are forces like globalization, advancing technology, and threatening pandemics changing the faith and work journey? How can we and our Christian friends best be prepared to make the most of our faith and work journey?
Ambitious AND Christian?!
Is it OK to be ambitious? Should we have big goals at work and work hard to achieve them? And what about being competitive? Is it a sin to want to be the best and to win? Denise Lee Yohn shared answers to these questions at the Polished Network’s BOLDLY 2021 Conference. She looks at at what the Bible says about being courageous and bold in our work and shares the most important change we can make to orient our ambitions properly.
