Over the last 4 years here at my current employer, I have had the opportunity to tell people about the depravity of man, the unique place among all literature occupied by the Bible, the sanctity of life, the supremacy of Christ, and the reconciling power of the Gospel not just between God and man, but also between fellow human beings -- all in the context of being an imperfect human being these people see every day."<br /><br />I love this blog!!!Mary Elizabeth Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915438088186414796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-24944682040902542492013-01-04T09:01:29.884-08:002013-01-04T09:01:29.884-08:00Congratulations on your promotion.

While I have consenting staff here at the blog who sign up to be underappreciated and unpaid, at work it turns out much better when you see each person as a colleague who is gracious enough to put up with you and your faults personally.<br /><br />The second step is to be great at your job. That means you do it better than anyone expects you to do it -- not that you make it a habit of telling anyone how great thou art. You derive a sense of accomplishment from a job done well.<br /><br />The third step is to listen, and answer the questions people are actually asking you. Over the last 4 years here at my current employer, I have had the opportunity to tell people about the depravity of man, the unique place among all literature occupied by the Bible, the sanctity of life, the supremacy of Christ, and the reconciling power of the Gospel not just between God and man, but also between fellow human beings -- all in the context of being an imperfect human being these people see every day.<br /><br />Now go and do the same.FX Turkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16798420127955373559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-35644131072285571342013-01-03T05:20:37.450-08:002013-01-03T05:20:37.450-08:00I've read this blog for a while, and one post ...I've read this blog for a while, and one post I would be really like you to write is how you balance your career with your personal faith. Is this something you ever discuss in the corporate lunchroom? Moreover, how do you manage relationships with coworkers and underlings? For example as a Christian, we have views concerning the Biblical roles for women. How does this come into play at work? What if you have a female underling who finds your blog and says, "aha, no wonder I'm being treated unfairly".
