Here, Robert Covolo shares how Van Gogh’s paintings of workers reveal a profound spiritual insight: the holiness of ordinary labor. Unlike traditional religious art that separated the sacred from the secular, Van Gogh portrayed everyday tasks—harvesting, binding sheaves—as acts filled with dignity and sacred value. This vision echoes Martin Luther’s Reformation teaching that all vocations, even the humblest, can glorify God when done with faithfulness.

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.
