Becoming A Spiritual Influence At Work

by: Bill Peel & Walt Larimore

Workplace Grace: Becoming a Spiritual Influence at Work, systematically outlines a genuine approach to implement authentic workplace evangelism. The book chronicles how Jesus and the early Christians focused on reaching people with the gospel message in the marketplace (bakeries, shops, barracks and town-centers) of the first century. The incredible collaboration of Dr. Walt Larimore and William Carr Peel provides the reader with a solid framework to understand accessible stories of culture transformation in a variety of real businesses. They compare evangelism to an agrarian, three-step metaphor of cultivating, planting and harvesting. Cultivating a personal relationship with a colleague or client takes time before one can plant biblical seeds of God’s truth. The outcome of this level of obedience and investment may produce the eventual harvest of eternal life.

Workplace Grace contains several well designed and compelling charts, diagrams and processes. These illustrations aim to spur the reader toward a process of regularly and publicaly sharing their faith. The authors ultimately reinforce that the bottom-line to being an effective witness for Christ in the workplace starts with prayer and simply communicating the gospel message by executing common courtesies and consistently uplifting those we have the honor to serve.

Currently living in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Dr. Walt Larimore of is one of America’s best-known family physicians. Over the course of his nearly thirty-year medical career, he has written or co-written over twenty books.

Bill Peel lives in Dallas, Texas and is the founding Executive Director of The Center for Faith & Work at LeTourneau University. For thirty years, he has coached thousands of men and women to understand their calling and grasp their work’s importance to God.

Bill and Walt previously collaborated and co-wrote the highly acclaimed continuing medical education course, Saline Solution, and taught healthcare professionals worldwide to effectively speak about faith issues with their patients.
