Joanna Meyer: Women, Work, and Calling

Heather and Joanna Meyer discuss women, work, and calling.

It is time for part three of our four-part series, “Advice From a Woman.” Today Christian women face multiple tensions between home and work, navigating complex gender dynamics in the workplace and social pressure to hold together picture-perfect lives. Joanna Meyer addresses a critical gap in Christian women's discipleship by speaking to the roles we play in public and professional life.

Heather also adds another tool to your social toolkit as she discusses social media and how your employer or potential employer may be using it to learn more about who you are. The lines between our private and public lives can get blurred when we log online. Heather gives you a tip she thinks you should remember every time you post.
