Faith & Work Check-in

Question 1 of 5 · Direction

How clearly can you connect your present course, job or career direction with the person you are becoming and the good you hope to contribute?

I mainly chose it because it was available, expected or seemed secure; I cannot yet see how it connects.I have interests and hopes, but the connection between purpose and career still feels vague.I can see a meaningful connection, though I am still testing the direction and making choices.I understand how this season of study or work contributes to a larger calling without expecting one job to contain my whole purpose.

Question 2 of 5 · Service

When you think about your ordinary work or studies, how clearly can you name who is served by doing them well?

I mostly experience work or study as something to endure, finish or use to survive.I know it helps someone, but pressure and routine often hide that meaning from me.I can name the people served and sometimes let that shape the quality of my work.I regularly connect ordinary tasks to real people, useful contribution and faithful service.

Question 3 of 5 · Integrity

What usually happens when workplace pressure conflicts with your convictions?

I often go along, remain silent or decide according to fear and immediate consequences.I know something feels wrong, but I struggle to name the issue or choose a wise response.I can identify the conviction and seek counsel, though courage or practical options can still be difficult.I use clear convictions, facts, wise counsel and appropriate courage to respond without unnecessary performance.

Question 4 of 5 · Influence

How do you understand Christian influence in the places where you study or work?

I am unsure whether faith belongs there unless I am preaching or openly discussing religion.I want to represent Christ, but I alternate between hiding my faith and forcing visible expressions.I am learning to combine excellent work, humane relationships, integrity and appropriate words.I understand influence as faithful presence: serving well, shaping what I can and speaking with wisdom when the moment is right.

Question 5 of 5 · Wholeness

How integrated are your faith, work, relationships and inner life?

They feel like separate lives, and work often consumes what remains.I want one integrated life, but my patterns change sharply between church, work and home.My convictions increasingly shape the whole week, though pressure still creates visible gaps.My faith informs how I work, rest, relate, decide and recover without making work my identity.
