Don’t even swear by your own head, because you cannot make one hair on your head become white or black. Say only yes if you mean yes, and no if you mean no. If you say more than yes or no, it is from the Evil One. “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I tell you, don’t stand up against an evil person. If someone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other cheek also. If someone wants to sue you in court and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. If someone forces you to go with him one mile, go with him two miles. If a person asks you for something, give it to him. Don’t refuse to give to someone who wants to borrow from you. “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemies.’

This plan will take you on a Biblical journey exploring the truth about Jesus being Perfect!
4 Days
This 4-day plan provides a theological foundation for the importance of doing excellent work and offers practical steps to consistently point people to God through how you work. Excellence is not perfection. A longtime Workmatters advocate says, “Excellence is maximizing our capability for a given assignment. Perfection is the endless pursuit of a false ideal.” Excellence is often lived out in small, ordinary moments—being prompt and prepared, sharpening our skills, prayerful planning, and setting clear priorities. Excellent work reflects how we think about God, serve others in love, and build credibility for sharing our faith in everyday life.
