What does it look like to faithfully follow Christ in the work you do every day?

In Your Corner of the World, Dan Doriani and Mark Vroegop talk with Christians working across business, medicine, education, government, the arts, and more about how biblical wisdom shapes the way they work, lead, serve, and make decisions.

The show also explores the connection between the workplace and the local church—helping pastors better understand the challenges their people face Monday through Saturday and helping Christians see how their gifts and experience can serve the church.

Whatever your work looks like, the goal is simple: to help you faithfully serve God in your corner of the world.

Longtime pastor and author Scotty Smith — founding pastor of Christ Community Church in Franklin, TN, and author of the daily prayer blog Heavenward — joins Dan for a conversation that starts with grace and ends up somewhere more personal. They dig into what Dan calls "horizontal legalism": the subtle habit of keeping a mental ledger of the good we've done for others, and quietly expecting it to be repaid in favor, attention, or love. From there the conversation moves into what that looks like at work (bosses, firing, being "the boss God gave you") and at home (grandkids, marriage, aging out of a leadership role), before Scotty opens up about growing up as what he calls an "emotional orphan" and how that shaped the way he — and many high-performing leaders — chase approval without realizing it.

Mike Smith works in the kind of place where it's dangerous to do what he does - so much so that we can't share his real name or location.

Sadly, there are lots of places that fit this description: cities and countries where children are exploited, and where people from all over the world come to participate in horrific acts of abuse. Mike Smith uses his knowledge and skill as a surgeon to get into places where he can help. Along the way, he's had to learn what it means to care for the whole person in these delicate situations. In this episode, Mike sits down with Dan to discuss what he does and why the glory of God motivates him more than anything else.

"Prediction Markets" are becoming a normal sight on our college campuses, in our advertisements, and on the phones of our friends and family. This conversation felt especially relevant to us in light of the ongoing Brendan Sorsby story, the Texas Tech Quarterback who was recently granted a temporary injunction to play, despite being declared ineligible by the NCAA on the grounds of placing over $90,000 worth of bets on sports.

Accounting professor Steve Moerhle joins Dan on this episode to talk about his interest in sports betting: how it's grown in recent years, and how the market value of these companies is an indication that they are betting on people to lose a lot of money through gambling. Steve and Dan cover the ethics of gambling, the traps the industry uses, and what it looks like to use your money wisely.

What if the Christian life is less about your spiritual performance and more about the life God gives?

Can the shape of a building, the design, use of materials, even the play of light in its corridors and rooms actually shape us as people? Can it influence our mood? Can it create a sense of awe? Point us toward worship? In today’s conversation with Tyler and Sarah, Dan explores how architecture and design can express personality, advance cultural goals, even impact and build relationships. At the heart of it though, is how their faith informs their work. Join us for this fascinating conversation, we hope you are both challenged and informed by it.

In today’s podcast Dan interviews Rico Tice, an Anglican evangelist and perhaps best known for his book, Christianity Explored. Mr. Tice was born in Chile, raised in Uganda, and educated in England. He joined All Souls church in London, under the leadership of John Stott in 1994. Dan and Rico discuss why evangelism is so hard, the courage it takes to remain faithful to the gospel, and how reading scripture together with non-believers helps to create a pathway for conversation and conversion.

Mentorship is much like planting a seed and nurturing it’s growth, tending to it until it bears fruit. As Steven Garber says, mentorship is the act of bringing one into vocation over the course of their life. As part of the burden of mentorship there is a deeper recognition that all of life falls under the Lordship of Christ. Dan and Steven acknowledge their influences from Lesslie Newbigin to Michael Polyani to Abraham Kuyper, and along the way they discuss everything from marketing, to knowing, hiking, politics, and their aesthetic sensibilities. Join us as we conclude season 7 with this profound and stimulating conversation on faith and work.
