The Winsome Way
Redeemer's Center for Faith and Work conducted a survey of working believers from around the country and found that only 6% had shared their faith at work. 6%.
It seems that while there is plenty of conversation around faith and work, there aren’t many people talking about faith at work. Thankfully, Peter gives us three tips in this verse that will help us better share our faith at our jobs.
1. Always be willing
Notice this doesn’t say always be sharing or always be talking about your faith. It just says always be willing. Sometimes, sharing your faith doesn’t fit in a sales meeting. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be prepared to talk about Jesus if the conversation allows it. Find the balance between forcing a faith conversation and letting it organically occur. Always be ready and always be praying for opportunities.
2. The hope that you have
What God has done in your life is not up for debate. We often tend to view conversations about faith as chances to convince someone or argue someone into a relationship with God. But that’s not really how it works, right? We can never go wrong with simply talking about what God has done in our life. We are all broken people who need Jesus. Or, as a famous theologian once said, “Christianity is just one beggar telling another beggar where he found food.” The most conversational and relatable thing we can share is why we believe and why we have hope.
3. Gentleness and respect
Gentleness and respect are the results of healthy relationship building. People are always more receptive to information when it’s coming from someone they know and trust. Which means more, movie recommendations from strangers or from friends? It’s the same with faith! Establish relationships with your employees and co-workers that are built on gentleness and respect and let the conversations flow from there.
Further Thought
- What makes sharing your faith at work awkward or difficult?
- Are there ways you can fill your conversations with truth without feeling the pressure to lead someone to Christ in the office?
- How can you get past the things that make talking about faith, or letting truth fill your conversations, uncomfortable? What are the strategies you’ve used in the past that have worked?
- Who is someone you know that makes talking about their faith look natural? What is it that they do that you can emulate?

We all know that sharing our faith is a great thing to do, but few of us know how. Is it in how we live or how we speak? Words or actions? It’s time we put an end to this debate.
