Beginning in February, 2022, 95 young professionals began participating in ViewPoint Leadership Year—a 26-session experience for young men and women to help them be effective leaders at work, church, and in the community and to help them consistently apply biblical principles to every area of their work and life. Throughout the year, 28 mentors are walking alongside these young people as they learn operational best practices and seek to apply them to their work.
Being a young believer new to the workforce can be challenging. Many of our participants voiced their difficulty in viewing work through a gospel lens, living an integrated life, and finding practical ways to express the gospel in a professional context.
We are thankful to be able to provide a biblical framework for grappling with these challenges as well as practical tools to help participants be even more effective in their work. Many participants have expressed that the most useful facet of the experience is the relationships they have developed and the time they get to spend processing ideas and current challenges in a group context.
A few participants had this to say about their experience:
I learned how to live out my faith in the workplace by more than just my words. The way I treat people, the way I act, and the things that I do and do not do are all ways that I should live out God’s transformation in me.
I have learned that biblical community and Christian perspective is really important in my work. Even as an entrepreneur with no coworkers and no employees, I have the opportunity every day to represent Christ in some way.
Another cohort of participants will begin ViewPoint Leadership Year in 2023. Will you join us in prayer for the next generation of leaders? To learn more about the program, click below.
