Sharing the Gospel at Work — eBook

The suggestion that every follower of Jesus is called to share the gospel is unsettling to most Christians, since most of us don’t feel gifted as evangelists.

Although it is thrilling to be part of someone’s journey to faith, broaching a spiritual conversation with colleagues at work can arouse no small amount of angst. This might be true of you—and for a lot of understandable reasons.

But what if we understood that being part of someone’s journey to faith in Jesus could begin with something as simple as having a cup of coffee with a colleague, encouraging someone who has had a rough week at work, or offering a helping hand to a boss or coworker under stress?

This booklet includes some of Bill’s latest thinking about how we can be a spiritual influence at work. Download a PDF copy here, or read it online at the Theology of Work website.
