How do Christians in the U.S. approach their work? Do men and women experience the demands of work differently? What role can churches play in equipping believers to serve God in their workplaces? Jeff talks with Ben Ries, associate dean for vocational formation at Abilene Christian University, and Missy Wallace, executive director of Nashville Institute for Faith & Work, about what we know about work in the U.S.

In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Daniel Im are joined by Missy Wallace, executive director of Nashville Institute for Faith and Work. During their conversation, they discuss how a day of silence can positively affect your spiritual life and how to have a personal relationship with Jesus while also holding a faith-based job. BEST QUOTES "I had such a transformative aha! moment when I figured out that I had worked for 20 years with bad theology.""I'm really learning how to separate talking about Jesus as a job and vocation versus a personal relationship with Jesus.""Sometimes things about Jesus, or reading a Bible passage or a theological text, ends up on a to-do list because I need to prepare for a class. That is great knowledge, but it does not penetrate the heart at all.""I was really scared that God would not say anything, or He would say too much. And I was worried about both of those.""I'm trying to work toward at least an hour a day of the phone turned off.""We see leadership in our family as something we embark on together.""What does it look like to see our marriage flourish separate from the children?""Abiding in Christ stabilizes you in the middle, which is where you need to be.""I spent a whole lot of time running really hard on a treadmill, being really good at achieving things, for the affirmation of other people.""Being in Scripture for 8 hours of silence with zero distractions in a moderated quiet day setting is transformative."

Join us for a conversation on paradigm shifts, insidious idols, and new perspectives about faith and work. NIFW Executive Director, Missy Wallace, will interview Marten Fadelle, who worked as a white collar professional most of his adult life, but is currently working as a contract janitor. Marten will share his journey over the past two years since leaving his white collar job and the difficulty and freedom he's experienced along the way. While we are not all called to radical job change, we are called to radical faith. Come learn with Marten as we reframe the idea of “important” people and "important" work. About the Lunches We use a practical theological framework to identify the inherent goodness of work, its outcomes, and the deeper questions it asks of us. The gatherings provide glimpses into common struggles and philosophical differences, and seek to foster the hope that emerges when we come to expect more from God within our work. Let’s work on faithfully working at work. MARTEN FADELLE Marten comes to Tennessee from his native Canada, and has a rich, international vocational background in the fields of environmental consulting, education, healthcare, and community development.

Missy Wallace founded and leads the Nashville Institute for Faith and Work (NIFW). After over 10 years working in the corporate world, her life and family took some unexpected turns. Missy shares her life and lessons.

Missy Wallace founded and leads the Nashville Institute for Faith and Work (NIFW). She became inspired to study faith and work in 2013 after working in Corporate America and then the nonprofit sector for over 10 years each and realizing that work can be a part of God’s unfolding story if we allow him to guide it rather than our false idols. This one makes you wish you could underline a passage of a podcast, so get ready to hit rewind a couple times to catch every morsel. Missy is a wise and gifted communicator and she so quickly cuts to the heart of WHY we do what we do, and what we're so often missing in the process.

In this week’s episode, we have a SPECIAL GUEST!  Missy Wallace, Executive Director at the Nashville Institute for Faith & Work (NIFW) joins us and gives us her insights into the convergence of faith and work.  She tells us a bit about her own journey, how she developed her theology of faith and work, the founding of NIFW and how she is equipping entrepreneurs today.  One unique takeaway is that Missy noticed how in Genesis, we see that God basically brought structure from chaos.  Similarly, Missy observed that in the marketplace entrepreneurs' job is also to bring structure from chaos.   Throughout the interview, Missy will tell us of stories of various entrepreneurs who have been part of NIFW's entrepreneur support group and how they have grappled with the ups and downs of their chosen career path.  These stories range from an entrepreneur coming into a 7-figure event being scared of wealth, to an entrepreneur wrestling with a bankruptcy, to a woman who knew she was called to elderly healthcare from the age of 16. The program is a 12-week closed group where participants agree to a 90% attendance rate.  The program includes a video curriculum with faith and work theology.  However more than anything else, the group provides a place where the masks can come off; participants can process the anxiety/stress with running a company; they can stop posturing and practice honesty with one another.   In redefining success (from a worldly one to a Kingdom one), Missy has found that these entrepreneurs find more peace in their work.  For the faith driven entrepreneur, it’s not about the score all the time.  Like raising children, the parent can’t just singularly focus on results; they should enjoy the process of their child’s growth as well. In sum, the NIFW provides a great resource to support entrepreneurs who need community and spiritual encouragement.  And, Missy is a great storyteller ... join us to hear more!
