Do you struggle with going to work everyday? Are you feeling dissatisfied with your job? Bill Clark, a professional counselor and professor at Reformed Theological Seminary, recently sat down with IFWE executive director Hugh Whelchel to offer practical advice on dealing with job dissatisfaction.

Clark explains,

That dissatisfaction is a symptom…It should drive you to ask some good questions.

During the podcast Clark offers what some of those questions might be, and explores why God is more than capable of using ordinary people for his purposes. “There is more freedom in thinking and being Christ-like while doing whatever it is you’re doing,” he says.
