Grace at Work: The Secret to Getting More from Your Job Than a Paycheck

Tim Kimmel and co-author Michael Tooker seek to educate and inspire workers, so they can apply grace-based lessons where they spend most of their time—at work.

While you may not be crazy about your job, you can make deliberate a choice to bring God’s heart of grace to work and have a radically positive impact on how you view yourself, the God you serve, the people with whom you work, and the job you do.

Dr. Tim Kimmel is the founder and Executive Director of Grace Based Families, a ministry that aims to see families transformed by God’s grace into instruments of reformation and restoration. Tim loves it when churches and families are healthy and strong. He loves it even more when they work as a team. He believes the best way to pass on saving faith and transformed living is within the nurturing atmosphere of a loving home. To help others achieve this, Tim has developed resources, conferences, and media tools to equip and encourage parents, grandparents, churches, and couples.

Tim and Grace Based Families conduct marriage and parenting conferences across the country and the world to address the unique pressures experienced by today’s families. Tim hosts the “Family Matters Minute,” a daily one-minute radio spot which encourages and equips parents to bring out the best in their families. Known for his expertise and engaging humor, Tim is a popular guest on nationally syndicated radio and TV programs as well as podcasts.

Tim has authored many bestselling books including Grace Based Parenting, Connecting Church and Home, Grace Filled Marriage, and Grace at Work: The Secret to Getting More from Your Job Than a Paycheck (November 1, 2022) co-authored with Michael Tooker.
