In its 2025 Life@Work Report, Barna Group research company identified three main elements that determined whether work was meaningful to employees: people, purpose, and impact.
The report encourages leaders to build strong communities at work and help team members connect their work to larger, meaningful outcomes. The report encourages workers to find meaning by investing in workplace relationships, continually learning, and recognizing the value in helping others.
Paul provided similar counsel when he wrote: “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11)
We can find purpose and impact in our work when we do it for God’s glory. In the process, we can also build relationships that will have impact far beyond our workplace.
