Ep. 29: The Denver Institute for Faith & Work with Ross Chapman and Joanna Meyer

The Denver Institute for Faith & Work’s vision is that every person’s work brings hope and life to their city. From their website: “If people believe their work is central to God’s work in the world, they will find hope for and in their work and become agents of life in their workplaces, professions, industries, and cities. Our mission is to prepare people to serve God and others in their daily work so that workplaces and cities are transformed.”

Ross Chapman is the CEO of the Denver Institute for Faith & Work, where he helps leaders explore how faith connects to their daily work, and he’s also the co-author of the book Faithful Work. Joanna Meyer is also an author and the founder and executive director of Women, Work, & Calling at the Denver Institute for Faith & Work, where she helps women explore how their faith shapes their leadership and careers.

On this episode of The Drop Off, Ross and Joanna join Nicole Riehl to discuss their views of how faith and work intersect not only in the professional sense, but in the home, in our communities, and in how we raise our children. They touch on evolving views of dual income households, finding fulfillment in multiple aspects of our lives through faith, and how churches can function as community and childcare hubs.
