People hunger for spiritual discussion. Most of us spend more time in the workplace than in our own homes these days, and it's sad to think that we cannot look to that large chunk of our time as an opportunity for spiritual growth. I look forward to your questions and hope to give answers that might spark further thought on this topic. One reason for our series is the range of occupations where people ask questions like yours. A lot of our audience members come to us seeking answers to specific concerns and even ask similar questions of the different speakers from week to week.
All jobs are valuable within our society, though some are more visible than others.
What we uncover in our discussions are simple but non-obvious ways in which our work gives meaning to others. The TGIF series invites people of all walks of faith to participate - as both audience members and speakers. Daily work is a great opportunity to do that. Yes, the series is in a church, but Grace is a church that prides itself on being for the neighborhood. We have several ministries on our grounds that are nondenominational or, better still, supported by a range of religious traditions.
