Invite God into every decision, every action, and every result at work.
Take Him to Work is a message for believers who are tired of separating Sunday faith from Monday pressure. Through speaking, writing, and coaching, Chris Motal helps leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals bring Christ into meetings, sales calls, hiring decisions, conflict, service, and stewardship.
A message for the Sunday-to-Monday gap
The heart of Take Him to Work is simple: faith is not a Sunday activity. Work can become one of the primary places where God forms character, guides decisions, and uses ordinary people to love others well.
For professionals
Bring God into your calendar, meetings, client work, difficult conversations, and daily choices, not only your crises.
For churches and ministries
Equip believers to see their workplace as a mission field and their ordinary work as part of discipleship.
The book in development
The manuscript blends personal story, biblical reflection, and practical application in three parts: the foundation of a surrendered life, the daily practices that bring God into the workday, and the breakthrough that follows.
Part 1 · The Foundation
Faith, Identity, and Calling: who you are in Christ before what you do at work.
Part 2 · The Daily Practice
First Things First, Pray with the Team, Each Human Interaction, Lunch with Him, and Examination before Bed.
Part 3 · The Breakthrough
Transformation and Legacy: what changes in you, your work, and the people around you.
Speaking and workshop formats
Each format follows the same arc: Invite Him In, Obey in the Small, Steward the Results. Each one ends with a guided prayer and a clear next step.
Inviting God into Every Decision
A story-driven talk from the Morgan Stanley “cold call cowboy” years to a $100k deal not worth doing. Anchored in Proverbs 3:5–6 and closing with an invitation to a 4-week Take Him to Work Challenge.
Every Decision, Every Action
Teaching, story, and practice: the 60-second Desk Prayer, an obedience audit, group discussion, and one faithful next step for the week. Includes a participant workbook.
Faith & Growth Accelerator
1:1 coaching for faith-driven owners who want to grow revenue without compromising their walk with God. Covers calling and vision, offers and pipeline, faith-integrated decisions, team, and a kingdom view of money.
“My life’s calling is to walk closely with Jesus and invite Him into every area of my life, especially my work, so that everything I do—on stage, in business, and at home—reflects His presence, His character, and His glory.”
Who this serves
This platform is especially relevant for audiences where faith is real but work often feels disconnected from discipleship.
Entrepreneurs and owners
Founders navigating pressure, leadership, risk, payroll, and the temptation to tie identity to outcomes.
Sales and marketplace leaders
Professionals who live in targets, negotiations, client expectations, and ethical gray zones.
Churches and men’s groups
Believers looking for a practical way to carry faith beyond devotion time and into ordinary work.
Start Monday: the 60-second Desk Prayer
Before a big call, meeting, or decision, stop for one minute and invite God in. Then ask one question through the day: “Lord, how do You want me to handle this?”
Obedience audit
Where am I cutting corners with money, integrity, or relationships? What am I sacrificing for money?
One faithful next step
Choose one small act of obedience this week. Do it, and leave the outcome to God.
About Chris
Chris Motal started his career as a financial advisor at Morgan Stanley, chasing the top of a class of 500 new hires, the next big client, and the approval of everyone around him. There was no time for God, and nobody talked about faith at work.
Years later, on an ordinary Wednesday morning at the kitchen table, that disconnection caught up with him. Through spiritual coaching, a men’s retreat, and a lot of honest prayer, he found the peace he had been chasing, along with a calling to bring Jesus into every part of his work.
Today Chris is a marketing leader, business advisor, and speaker who works with business owners every day. Through Take Him to Work, he helps believers close the gap between Sunday and Monday.
Invite Chris to speak
