Center for Faith & Work: Living with Purpose in a Polarizing World
October 24, 2024 from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pmWe live in an increasingly polarized world. Some Christians feel under siege, and some common reactions include fitting in, withdrawing, fear, anger, or seeking power. However, none of these align with the words of Micah (seek justice, love mercy, walk humbly), Jeremiah (seek the good of the city), or Jesus (let your light shine before others).
Join us for an interactive workshop with Al Erisman, author of Living with Purpose in a Polarizing World. Together, we will explore practical takeaways and biblical lessons for thriving today. Through the lives of twelve biblical characters, we will uncover lessons on resilience, joy, and faith that are highly relevant to our contemporary challenges and examine their workplace lives, exploring how they represented their faith and how we can apply that to our own circumstances.
About the Speaker: Al Erisman, former director at The Boeing Company and co-founder of Ethix magazine, has spent decades exploring the intersection of faith and work. He is a Senior Fellow at the Center for Integrity in Business at Seattle Pacific University and an adjunct professor in business ethics and technology.
