FaithWorks Lancaster | Conversations on Calling
by FaithWorks Lancaster
Many Christians experience a sacred-secular divide—where faith and work feel disconnected. Faith communities have often reinforced this gap by treating work primarily as a platform for evangelism rather than as sacred calling.FaithWorks Lancaster exists to equip Christians in Lancaster County for faithful work that fosters flourishing communities. We believe all work—when done in response to God's calling—can be worship and a way we serve our neighbors.This limited series is a listening tour: We're discovering how people are already pursuing this integration in their daily vocations.
