61. Spiritual Formation at Hope Bridge and Why it Matters
Description
In this episode, we’re excited to highlight Brian’s new role at Hope Bridge as the Director of Discipleship. We dive into the heart behind this position, exploring what it looks like in practice and how it’s being implemented to further our mission. This role is all about supporting our team’s spiritual growth and helping us stay rooted in our purpose as we serve foster families.
We also discuss the importance of spiritual formation in the workplace. Spiritual formation is the process of being formed in the image of Christ for the sake of others. Brian shares practical ways we can incorporate this into our daily work lives, creating space for deeper faith and connection even amid the busyness. At Hope Bridge, where we are all foster or adoptive parents, the work we do to support foster families can sometimes lead to weariness and burnout. It’s a reminder that you can’t pour from an empty cup. By prioritizing spiritual formation, we not only refill our cups but also keep the main thing the main thing—becoming more like Jesus in the work we do each day.
Whether you’re involved in ministry, foster care, or any work focused on serving others, this episode will inspire and equip you to integrate faith into your daily routine, helping you stay grounded and refreshed in your calling.
