They make our life complete because according to research human beings are coherently dependent on each other and you can never say you are doing just fine on your own. Friendship is a special thing especially when you have good friends around you and it is something worth pursuing. This book will take you through much of what you need to know when it comes to friendship and it will help you build the best kind of relationship with your friends. It always begins with getting to know what true friendship is and ensuring you are also a true friend. One thing to keep in mind is that the friends to keep are those who will be with you through the good and bad. Friendship is not just about having someone to go out with or just do things together but rather have someone who will be your strength in times of pain and who understands you in all ways. You might be at a point in life where you always feel left out or lonely and are yearning to find friends. You should know that this is not impossible as long as you be yourself, this will help you attract people who suit your personality and won’t have a problem connecting. Every chapter of the book covers specific ideas about building and maintaining true friendship and it is my hope that it will be your best guide.

Somewhere along the journey of my walk with Christ I was made to believe that the work we do for the Lord within the four walls of the church, i.e. any church ministry activity, was most important and pleasing to God. This teaching did not sit well with me. As I spent more time in the Word and grew in my personal relationship with the Lord I became more and more aware that God wants ALL of my life to be a living sacrifice a life that is fully surrendered to Him and not just that part of my life that I offer within my church. Coming to this realization was a journey of self-acceptance, confidence and authenticity, understanding who I am created to be in Him. I accepted fully that God had a specific plan for my life and that I must be true to the calling He has for me. So, instead of just focusing on participating or even leading church related activities, I started to become more mindful of how I lived my life on a daily basis in my workplace to make sure that I give glory to God in all that I do, say or think. I started to look for opportunities to show and share Christ in my marketplace whenever I could. I love to mentor and coach others and believe that my everyday life in the workplace is where I can be an active and living ambassador for Christ. It is clear that God desires for me to be to be the salt and light in the world the marketplace that he has suited me for both in terms of skills and fit. The calling on our lives is awesome and much bigger than we can imagine. Through this book I want to encourage others to consider and change their lives allowing God complete access to their work life knowing that he cares about us in that sphere and requires us to be his witness as we accomplish our jobs. This book will specifically encourage women and anyone (men, also) who desires to increase their impact and demonstrate their faith in a practical way in the workplace. I share transparently with others how I walk this called out life in the workplace in the most practical ways and provide them with an opportunity to consider ways in which they could become more effective for Christ in the workplace to which God has called them to operate.
