Location context: Port Harcourt
Some say ‘work is work’ and faith should be private. Others believe faith must shape ethics, choices, and direction. Where is the balance—especially in a pressured economy?
Key angles to consider
- Ethics: faith influences honesty, fairness, and how we treat people
- Direction: faith can guide decisions, but how do we avoid manipulation or laziness?
- Wisdom: prayer + planning + counsel + skills development
- Boundaries: what faith should influence vs what competence should handle
Drop your take (reply-magnetic prompts)
- Pick one: A) Integrate fully B) Separate C) Balance carefully
- Share one decision where faith helped you (or where you struggled).
- How do you handle workplace pressure that conflicts with your convictions?
Simple rule: State your point clearly, then back it with a real example or a credible link (if you have one).
Quick context (so we’re debating the same thing)
When people talk about this topic, they often mix up principles (what should be true) and practices (what people actually do daily). So as you comment, try to separate what you believe from what you’ve tested in real life — especially if you’re speaking from experience in Port Harcourt.
Practical examples (not theory)
Example 1: a person may believe in discipline but has no system — so they rely on mood. Example 2: someone has a system but no accountability — so they drift. Example 3: someone has accountability but no clarity — so they stay busy without results. Which one sounds familiar to you, and what changed it?
What would convince you?
If you disagree with the original angle, share what evidence would change your mind. Is it a policy example, personal story, a scripture, a workplace case study, or data? The goal is not to win — it’s to learn.
