Faith &
Each month, we create and curate resources that focus around a particular theme that can help us grow as leaders and disciples. Share these resources with a small group or ministry team, or use them in your personal devotions.
More Themes
Faith & Work
Within this theme we explore the many facets of work that impact our spiritual lives as well as self-understanding. From parenting to working in a dollar store, how we do our work is so much more than checking off a list of tasks.

- Try out one of the practices in person or via Zoom.
- Utilize the Book Hub videos (divided into short segments) for a workshop-style class related to the theme.
- Use these resources as part of your newsletter, sending out an article link with each week’s email blast, paired with a short reflection by a lay or ordained leader in your congregation.
