In recent years, there has been a growing movement of Christian men who are seeking to share their faith in the workplace. These men are not content to simply live their lives as Christians in isolation; they are eager to share the love of Christ with their colleagues and co-workers.
“In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
It can be said that this new breed of Christian evangelists is different from the previous “don’t ask, don’t tell” generation of Christian in America in several ways.
For example, they are not afraid to talk about their faith in the workplace. They are no longer willing to compartmentalize their faith and leave it at the door when they go to work. They believe that their faith is an integral part of who they are, and they are not ashamed to share it with others.
In addition, these new Christian evangelists are not afraid to challenge the status quo. They are not content to simply go along with the flow and conform to the culture of the workplace. They believe that the workplace can be a place where people can experience the love of Christ, and they are willing to stand up for what they believe in, even if it means going against the grain.
“Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.” Colossians 4:6
And lastly, these new Christian evangelists are not afraid to be vulnerable. They know that sharing their faith can be risky, but they are willing to take that risk because they believe that it is worth it. They believe that by being vulnerable, they can build relationships with their co-workers and create a more welcoming environment for people of faith.
Have you seen examples of this new breed of Christian evangelists making a difference in the workplace?
You can also create a more welcoming environment for people of faith, who are sharing the love of Christ with their co-workers. If you are a Christian who is looking for ways to share your faith in the workplace, I encourage you to join this growing ‘movement’.
Here are some tips for sharing your faith in the workplace:
– Be authentic. People can spot a fake a mile away. Be genuine and sincere in your interactions with your co-workers.
– Be humble. Don’t try to force your beliefs on others. Let your actions speak louder than your words.
– Be loving. Show your co-workers the love of Christ through your words and actions.
– Be patient. It takes time to build relationships and share your faith. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t see results immediately.
– Don’t be afraid to refer to the Bible. Use every opportunity to educate people on the fact there are more reliable manuscript evidence for the Bible than any other book of antiquity. The Bible is a reliable source of knowledge.
If you are willing to be authentic, humble, loving, and patient, you can make a difference in the workplace by sharing your faith.

Thanks Tom! Yes, men need to take the lead in Christianity.
They have been way to passive and sleeping at their posts.
We live in dark times. Men are the tip of the spear when it comes to shining the light in a dark world!
