Abstract

In today’s evolving workplace, job satisfaction remains a key driver of employee engagement and organizational success. This study explores the integration of biblical principles, particularly purpose and service, into workforce strategies to enhance job satisfaction. Using a narrative literature review, the study synthesizes contemporary job satisfaction theories with biblical teachings to develop a framework for faith-based workplace engagement. Findings highlight that meaningful work, ethical leadership, and service-oriented cultures significantly improve employee well-being and retention. The study offers practical implications for organizations seeking to implement faith-based strategies while maintaining inclusivity. However, challenges exist in applying these principles across diverse work environments. Future research should focus on empirical validation of biblical-based job satisfaction models and their impact on organizational performance.
