Most of us spend much of our lives working—yet we often wonder if it truly matters. Why Work? is a four-week, podcast-based small group experience created by the Bay Area Center for Faith, Work & Tech to help us explore how our work fits into God’s design and purpose. Through short episodes and in-person guided discussions, together we’ll discover how to find meaning, motivation, and joy in the work we do every day.

This Thursday night small group experience includes:

• A 15-minute podcast episode we’ll watch together

• Personal reflection questions

• Dinner and group discussion

We’re launching the series on Thursday April 30th and it will conclude on Thursday May 21, meeting each Thursday night from 6:15-7:45pm..

What You'll Explore

Over four weeks, your group will unpack big questions about work, calling, and purpose:

Week 1: Two Lies and a Truth About Work

Week 2: Our Work and God's Big Story

Week 3: Work as Mission

Week 4: The Instrumental and Inherent Value of Work

This journey invites you to wrestle with deep questions through thought-provoking podcasts and guided discussions. Together, you'll discover how work was part of God's design from the beginning, how to stay motivated when it feels fruitless or frustrating, and how your vocation carries eternal value.

Designed for groups of Christ-followers, Why Work? is both accessible and potentially life-changing—helping you and your group see work with renewed purpose, clarity, and joy.
