Gregory F. A. Pierce makes a striking claim: The holy and the transcendent
can be found in the midst of the hustle and bustle of daily work. Rather than
being a "grind," our work can be "grist" for our spiritual mills. Indeed, the
work we do has enormous spiritual significance. Spirituality at Work offers
invaluable guidance for everyone who seeks to nourish their spiritual lives
while on the job.
Pierce's ten disciplines of workplace spirituality
include:
finding sacred objects
living with imperfection
assuring
quality
giving thanks and congratulations
building support and
community
dealing with others as you would have them deal with you
deciding what is enough-and sticking to it
balancing work, personal,
family, church, and community responsibilities
working to make "the system"
work
engaging in ongoing personal and professional development
