Dr. Christian Overman of Worldview Matters has created what I believe will be a vital tool in the toolbox of Christian men and women who are serious about integrating their faith with their work. He has spent years researching and creating an excellent seminar that was instrumental in transforming my own perspective on work. As I write this, I’m sitting in on one of Dr. Overman’s presentations at Westminster Chapel in Bellevue, WA and look forward to seeing the message spread! Check out Chuck Colson’s endorsement of Dr. Overman’s great work.
From the God’s Pleasure At Work online description:
God’s Pleasure At Work is a multi-media presentation by Dr. Christian Overman focusing on how a biblical worldview invigorates the workplace, renews the community and transforms culture. For this event, the GPAW course will span 35 days, beginning with a full-day workshop on October 31 (Part 1) and concluding with a full-day workshop on December 5 (Part 2). During the five week interim, participants will be encouraged to read the text that accompanies the GPAW course, Assumptions That Affect Our Lives, and consider specific (optional) study questions with a friend or a small group of their own choosing.
The GPAW course is based upon the premise that “God does His work through carpenters, cops and CEOs.” For a follower of Christ, there’s no such thing as “secular work.” As the English Puritan George Swinnock once said, “…his shop as well as his chapel is holy ground.”
