Conclusion. . 330 $aThough the majority of Americans claim faith in God and adults spend the majority of their time working, these two important dimensions of life are rarely effectively integrated. It is important for people of every faith tradition to consider how, when and if their faith and work are to be integrated. This is especially true as research shows that the integration of faith and spirituality in the workplace results in numerous benefits for individuals, organizations, and society - if done respectfully. This book presents core research insights concerning integration influences and strategies for Christians who seek to integrate their faith and their work. Specifically, it discusses how individual, occupational, and organizational factors influence faith-work integration, and suggests diverse ways to integrate the Christian faith at work. The Faith and Work Integration Spheres of Influence Model is presented as a tool to guide individuals in better understanding how to develop their own personal plan for faith-work integration within the context of limiting or enabling occupational and organizational factors. It also suggests areas for further research on this topic. Readers will learn how Christian faith-work integration can be maximized based on individual attributes, occupational characteristics, and organizational factors. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Workplace Spirituality and Fulfillment,$x2662-3668 606 $aBusiness?Religious aspects 606 $aOrganization 606 $aPlanning 606 $aFaith, Spirituality and Business$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/526030 606 $aOrganization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/516000 615 0$aBusiness?Religious aspects. 615 0$aOrganization. 615 0$aPlanning. 615 14$aFaith, Spirituality and Business. 615 24$aOrganization. 676 $a248.88 700 $aBuszka$b Sharlene G$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0957697 702 $aEwest$b Timothy$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367246903321 996 $aIntegrating Christian Faith and Work$92169269 997 $aUNINA
