This week on Christ at Work, Brad Weir, who brings a wealth of experience from his days as a business executive.

Show Notes
Today, Brad Weir recalls some of the ways that he was intentional about sharing Christ while working in a secular environment. Starting with his early career in advertising, he shares that a confrontation with a coworker sparked his own spiritual awakening. Brad discusses how this pivotal moment led him to view his work as a ministry, influencing not only his career path but also his approach to leadership and relationships at work.
Brad dives deep into the idea of marketplace ministry, sharing personal stories that illustrate how traditional work environments can be ripe for spiritual outreach and growth. He explains how his approach to ministry doesn't require a pulpit but starts right in the office, transforming everyday interactions into opportunities for grace and witness.
One poignant example Brad offers involves a simple act of kindness—changing how a coworker was addressed to restore dignity and respect, significantly impacting workplace culture. Such actions, he notes, subtly weave the gospel into the fabric of daily life, influencing perceptions and behaviors.
Brad also stresses the importance of authenticity in expressing faith at work. He shares how admitting faults and asking for forgiveness have not only helped him grow personally but have also opened doors to meaningful spiritual conversations with colleagues. These interactions, according to Brad, are the bedrock of effective ministry, where the authenticity of one's faith journey can encourage others to reflect on their own spiritual paths.
Through the discussion, Brad continuously emphasizes that every Christian is called to minister right where they are, using their unique platforms and daily interactions to foster environments of kindness, respect, and spiritual curiosity.

Join us on this episode of Christ at Work as we welcome S. Michael Craven, an influential thinker and speaker on Christian worldview and the Kingdom. Michael is a sought-after speaker, author, and the VP & Dean of the Colson Fellows Program at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. Michael explores the deeper motivations behind integrating faith into professional life, sharing how biblical narratives demonstrate a bigger picture of what God has created us for. Discover the transformative impact of living the fullness of the Kingdom out in every area of your life.
In today’s episode, Michael Craven teaches us that the Kingdom of God has had impacts beyond just simple personal salvation. God's love for the Cosmos is demonstrated in His redemption of all things. Because Christ's rule and reign encompass all of Creation, we as God's people and image-bearers, are participating in organizing, co-creating, and restoring His world in every facet of human life. He elaborates on how the comprehensive narrative of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration informs and motivates believers to see a bigger view of the Kingdom's work - especially in their day to day workplaces and with the people they see everyday.
Michael introduces his perspective by first sharing a quote by C.S. Lewis, underlining how Christianity helps us see all life, including our professional endeavors, in a new light. Michael stresses that understanding our role in God’s creation and the continuation of His work is essential for any Christian in the marketplace.
Throughout the episode, Michael explains the "four-chapter gospel" and its implications for our vocational callings. He emphasizes the role of common grace through work, which serves both believers and non-believers by improving the world incrementally. This discussion opens up insights into how Christians can live out their faith in secular workplaces, impacting culture and society effectively. In his final insight, he cautions to not think of the gospel purely in an instrumental way - solely for evangelism, moral and ethical values, or so that you can give money to spiritual work, but to see the gospel as the restoring of God's right ways across all of civilization's aspects. A good news that will culminate in his Christ's government being established here on earth for eternity.
