In this episode, Peter and Mark discuss workplace evangelization in one's first professional secular job. One evangelizes differently when one is 23 years old than when one is 50 years old. The episode highlights the importance of being flexible and somewhat entrepreneurial while evangelizing in the workplace. Simply repeating what one has read or heard in an academic, institutional, or clerical setting is rarely effective at engaging one's professional peers, who have specific spiritual needs that have to be addressed. We only become aware of those "needs" when we work beside others over an extended period of time. The episode describes how we will encounter resistance and ridicule at times, as Christ predicted we would. However, the Holy Spirit will always be there to help us, working through others whom we least suspect would be supportive of our efforts. The episode concludes by encouraging young professionals to engage and evangelize their peers when opportunities arise. However, to do so with gentleness and respect as St. Peter encourages us to do. (1 Peter 3:15) Recommended reading includes: The Acts of the Apostles, Joy of the Gospel (Pope Francis) and On Evangelization (St. Paul VI.)
