Ep 2051: Work – an Extension of Your Faith

It must be hard living out your faith at work when your job is at Microsoft, right? Well, Lori Kim tells us about all the resources and reasons she’s able to be a bright light for Christ there! Her journey starts as an immigrant and pastor's kid, facing cultural and language barriers while striving for perfection. During a challenging period of loss, including her father's battle with cancer and her own job loss, Lori experienced a profound faith transformation. Through prayer and a new perspective, she began to see her work as a mighty extension of her faith.

At Microsoft, Lori is active in a Christian employee resource group, engaging in weekly Bible studies, prayer meetings, and monthly wisdom events that foster community and spiritual growth. She also serves with the Chicago Faith & Work Movement ( https://www.faithandworkmovement.org ) and the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation.

Embrace all that God made you to be.

No matter the situation, keep praying!

Bless yourself with sacred rhythms of rest.
