Professors Denise Daniels and Elaine Ecklund developed a Faith at Work Matrix on the different ways we can live out our vocational calling. The second approach is by serving others at work.
These researchers discovered that one common way that we can use our work for God’s glory is by leveraging our workplace as an opportunity to serve others.
Joseph’s workplace was stewarding a prison. Two prisoners were troubled by their dreams. In Genesis 40:8 we read, “We both had dreams,” they answered, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”
Joseph used his workplace and skills to serve prisoners. You also can live out your calling when you use your work to serve others.
