Norm Miller shared with our Faith Incorporated audience about his transition when he became the CEO of Interstate Batteries. He had determined that if his faith was real he needed to decide the best way to shine his light at work.
He, and his team, resolved themselves to be bold and sensitive; bold with proclaiming their faith, but sensitive to those around them who might not be interested.
1 Peter 3:14-15 teaches how to approach those around us, “Do not fear their intimidation, and do not be troubled, but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.”
Are you bold and sensitive in your workplace?
Do you have examples of times in your workplace you have been fearful of sharing your faith due to potential legal risks or the possibility of losing your job?

The professional coaching world is saturated with new age teaching (e.g. "The Secret", "Law of Attraction"). Consequently, as a Christian Coach, I have to walk the fine line of standing true to my faith while not being too confrontational with the truth. As far as legal risks go, I'm not too worrried about that, but I could potentially lose my "job" (as an entrepreneur, every relationship is a potential "job") because of my beliefs.
Excelente artigo. Ser luz do mundo e sal da terra com coragem e sensibilidade é realmente um desafio - que muito me agrada.
Parabéns Rick, seus post tem me abençoado muitíssimo.
