Working with Dan Doriani
Center for Faith and Work
This podcast seeks to fire the imagination of Christians who long to practice their faith at work. The podcast features interviews of people who try to practice their faith at work. Guests may be famous or unknown. They may be very successful, quietly faithful, or instructive in their woes. We typically interview mature Christians, but there are exceptions. The common thread is a desire to live by one’s faith and convictions. Guests include professional athletes, award-winning broadcasters, a librarian, a surgeon, a Harvard-educated opioid addict, politicians, and more.

Phil Ryken: Living with Dual Callings
Dan sits down with Phil Ryken - president of one of the most prestigious colleges in the country, author of over 50 books, and formerly a long-time pastor. They dive into some of the questions Christians frequently ask about their work: how do I know whether or not I'm called to this particular career? How do I know when it's time to leave? And is full-time ministry the best/only way to serve? Additionally, they explore the world of academia.

Dr. Bruce Haughey: Healing with Grace and Knowledge
Dan speaks with world-renowned surgeon and pioneering medical researcher, Dr. Bruce Haughey. During his career, Dr. Haughey has made enormous strides in the field of Otolaryngology (that is, surgery on the head and neck)—finessing techniques and procedures that have saved numerous lives and improved the quality of life for countless more. He shares his perspective on God's good design—both his design for the human body and his design in gifting and calling Dr. Haughey himself in a particular way.

What is your highest and rarest (or most strategic) gift? Do you feel a responsibility to use your gifts, as Dr. Haughey does, for the good of your neighbor? or for humanity? How does your faith affect the way you approach your work? What special insights does it give you? (Think of Bruce talking about the color coding of certain nerves.)
