The 9 to 5 Window Workshop

Dear Friend,

For 10 years, I taught one- and two-day workshops entitled "Called to the Workplace." In June of 2006, this workshop was updated with about 40% new material to include new teaching from The 9 to 5 Window book that was released in September 2005.

The new revised workshop is now called The 9 to 5 Window Workshop: How to Transform Workplaces, Cites, and Nations is now being offered in your area. Contact Marie Phillipson, MarketPlace Leaders NJ, my New Jersey affliate, for more information.

Summary

This workshop helps men and women understand God's view and purposes for work through teaching, video and powerpoint presentations, group interaction and discussion, and prayer. the teaching component of the workshop consists of five in-depth sessions. This experience is fun and entertaining with many humorous video clips from movies and current events. You will be encouraged, challenged, and inspired as you learn about your workplace as a place of ministry. A detailed workbook is included for you to follow along with each session.

The 9 to 5 Window Workshop teaches men and women to realize their Biblical calling through their work, whether in a corporate office setting, a small business environment, or running a household of children. We all work, and we need to know how our work relates to our life purpose and the fulfillment of God's calling on our lives. This intensive workshop helps us understand our workplace calling. The lifestyles of the Biblical men Esau and Joseph are contrasted and how they relate to many of us in our vocations today. This workshop also looks at the life of Moses and many other "workers" in Scripture. In addition, this workshop includes a look at what God is doing globally through Christians in the workplace and the level of impact Christians can have in our work, communities, cities, and even at a national level.

The 9 to 5 Window Workshop answers these questions and many more:

Can I really experience God in my work? How?

Why do most of us tend to segment our spiritual life from our work life?

Why do most Christians in the workplace live defeated lives?
Is there really a move of God in the workplace today?
How can I make Godly decisions in my work?
What if I work for a non-Christian boss?
How does the Bible define "ministry"?
Are there really people who are transforming workplaces, cities, and nations?

How do I hear God's voice in my work life?

More About the Workshop

God is calling forth a remnant of men and women who no longer see their faith as something to be segmented from their work life. These men and women have a desire to see God manifest Himself in their work life -- whether that is in the corporate workplace, at a Christian ministry, or as a mom raising three children. We all work and we all want to experience God in the midst of our work lives. But there is a problem. Many men and women are hindered from experiencing Christ in and through their work. Why?

Who Should Attend This Workshop?
Anyone who wants a better understanding of how their work relates to their life calling. Anyone who is frustrated, discouraged, or in despair about their work, their calling, or their life. Anyone who wants to be better equipped to fulfill God's unique purposes for them in their work. Anyone who serves workplace believers. It is for anyone who works -- business owners, professionals, secretaries, construction workers, educators, church leaders, or work-at-home parents.

"Thank you and grateful does not even begin to explain how I feel about the workshop. This entire workshop has changed my life! This is the best gift any person has ever given me." --Diana, Atlanta, GA

"I just wanted to write to you and thank you for the workshop. God really did move and blessed us powerfully. I have to say I was greatly impacted by everything that went on there. I met some great people and just had a awesome time in fellowship. God made everything crystal clear to me with the workplace ministry here at my job and the direction God is taking us. --Harold in Atlanta, GA

“This is probably the best seminar I've been to which leads workplace believers through a teaching of life's purpose and meaning in the context of Old Testament saints and Bible stories. It leads individuals to a point of decision and action to make your life count and to live for a cause greater than yourself. He has custom made this seminar for workplace believers-- it has been a formative step in my own journey.” --Clark Driscoll, W oodstock, GA
