Course Description

It’s hard to live out our faith at work. Where is God while we are chasing deadlines, navigating office politics or achieving our targets? How do I discern my vocational calling? How can I fulfil Christ’s call for us to be salt and light in the world? If we are to be effective ambassadors for Christ (2Cor 5:20) in our workplaces, we need to cultivate a deeper experience of God’s love and presence in our work and understand how the Gospel may speak into and transform our contemporary work.

Join us in MM101 as we experience how we can be spiritually formed and develop the Christ-like character necessary to flourish at work.
