What an incredible morning at Reimagining Work Vol.13: Healthcare in LA!
It was a joy to see so many Christian healthcare professionals gather for a rich time of learning, fellowship, and encouragement. Our keynote speaker, Dr. Dan Rogstad, opened the evening with a moving testimony, reflecting on the successes, setbacks, and faithful response that shaped his journey into medicine.
Dr. Rogstad was joined by Dr. Tania Abouezzeddine, Dr. Andre Cipta, Dr. Alyssa Dominguez, and Dr. Warren Yamashita for an engaging panel discussion moderated by Dr. Janet Ma. The conversation continued as attendees joined breakout sessions exploring meaningful intersections of faith and healthcare.
Here, Robert Covolo discusses how the Apostle Paul’s strategic focus on cities, public spaces, and vocational influence serves as a model for CFWLA’s mission in Los Angeles. He reflects on Paul’s life and ministry to highlight the power of work as a central place for discipleship and gospel renewal, and why Los Angeles is an essential city for the next chapter of this kingdom work.
This year has already marked a season of incredible momentum at the Center for Faith + Work Los Angeles—we’ve launched two 7-Week Faith + Work Courses, hosted our 9th Annual Conference, commissioned a new cohort of Framework Fellows, and welcomed Dr. Robert Covolo as our new Executive Director.
Now, as we look to the future, we invite you to help build what’s next.
Our 2025 Faith + Work Conference: Rethinking Work gathered believers across vocations for a powerful day of learning and connection around God’s redemptive vision for business.
As a follow-up to his three-part blog series, Robert Covolo sits down for a conversation with Matthew Kaemingk & Cory B. Wilson, authors of the new book Work and Worship: Reconnecting Our Labor and Liturgy. In this episode, they discuss how and why the book came together, the intersection of work + worship, what we can learn from the Old Testament and the early church on the relationship between work + worship, and how to best respond in our lives today.
Hobbies can be a great option for many reasons, not the least of which is their overlooked ability to enhance our regular daily jobs. Though on Labor Day we celebrate the vocational work of Americans, we would be shortsighted to miss out on celebrating the blessings of the avocational pastimes we enjoy as well.
