ABSTRACT
This chapter dives into the Christian aspect of mindfulness in the workplace to answer basic questions about how Christians use spirituality in workplaces to engage their whole self: body, heart, mind, and soul. In recent years, interest in this topic has grown rapidly, as scientific testing has shown positive workplace outcomes. Terms such as Faith at Work, God at Work, His Way at Work, Marketplace Ministries, Spirit at Work, Spirituality in the Workplace, Theology of Work, and Workplace Spirituality are becoming common in academic and practitioner vocabularies. However, concepts of spirituality and mindfulness remain aloof as they are thought to be connected to Eastern religious activities, such as meditation and yoga. This chapter will explore the relevance of mindfulness from a Christian perspective. It will articulate the separation and connection of religion and spirituality. And it will offer Biblical reference for Christians to integrate their faith spiritually in their daily work.
