"Loving Our Colleagues" | A Panel Discussion from REVIVE 2024

The Co-Mission Podcast

Our workplaces can give us wonderful opportunities to share the gospel but there can also be challenges in speaking of Jesus to our colleagues and clients. In this seminar we’ll be thinking about how we can make the most of the opportunities and navigate some of the challenges of workplace evangelism.
