Mattiyu 23:27

This generation is longing for authenticity. God’s perfect will for you is to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. Jesus tells us to not be hypocrites like the Pharisees, but to live a life that backs up what we preach. God desires for us to stay on a path of purity.

All dads desire to be better fathers and have a spiritual influence in the life of their kids. They long to improve, but struggle to find practical guidance and encouragement along the way. Often, they end up feeling inadequate and don’t even know why.

Have you ever considered what it might look like for you to organize your life around the practices of Jesus? In this reading plan, we will consider the spiritual disciplines' role in our pursuit of becoming more like Jesus, why they are a means of grace for ordinary people, and how they can help us find freedom from the patterns of sin in our lives.

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.
