Over the past several months, many of our clients have brought up questions about speaking about politics at work. Being a Christian in the workplace can be very difficult. Many religious exempt employers are terrified to even consider bringing a message from the pulpit. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
We are in tumultuous times when Christians can't even speak to each other regarding certain topics. We miss incredible opportunities to love each other and learn from each other when we don't speak opening with each other regarding our views. But, what if we were all comfortable with our political views and could speak openly?
Meet Pastor Joel L. Rissinger. He believes we have an obligation to speak openly with one another in every aspect of our walks with the Lord, especially politics. Pastor Joel L. Rissinger and his wife Karen have been married for almost 40 years and have two adult children, a marvelous son-in-law, two foster grandsons, and two gorgeous granddaughters.
Pastor Joel is a shepherd as part of Standing Stone Ministry (www.standingstoneministry.org) and an interim pastor with IPM (www.interimpastors.org).
He is co-founding Pastor Emeritus of LifeWay Church in Newington, Connecticut, and he has been in full-time ministry since 1992. In this capacity, he has led several congregations through major transitions prior to planting.
He and his wife Karen, a school psychologist, have helped hundreds of couples through counseling, their popular “Marriage Timeout” retreats, Iron Sharpens Iron Seminars, and other public ministry.
Tune in and listen as Mark and Pastor Joel give you encouragement for work!
