Work

Scripture frequently calls us to hold couplets of seemingly opposing truths in tension. For example, plan for tomorrow AND don't worry about it, enjoy restful “self-care” AND embrace self-sacrifice, desire good things AND be content. Join me as we explore five pieces of “double-sided wisdom,” mining seemingly minor nuances for major truths to apply to our work today!

Double-Sided Wisdom

They weren’t pastors or religious professionals. They were “mere Christians.” But through their work they changed the world. In this reading plan, I’ll introduce you to these 5 men and women who show us what it looks like to glorify God through our seemingly “secular” work today (Fred Rogers, Fannie Lou Hamer, Ole Kirk Christiansen, Hannah More, and C.S. Lewis).

Five Mere Christians

This is a five-day devotion to help lighten the pressures of life and minimize the stresses we put on ourselves. Everybody experiences stress, but how can we lessen the load so that we are not treading water? We were designed to experience life to its fullest, not barely getting by. This devotion will help the reader determine what steps they need to take to eliminate unneeded worry.

Living Lighter

If you're one of the millions of Americans in the midst of a career transition, chances are that you're discouraged by the difficulty of finding work. Practical and inspirational, each daily reading will help you find rich personal growth with God during this transition time. Taken from Rick Pritikin's book of the same title, this 7-day reading plan will help you find focus and meaning.

Why Did I Lose My Job If God Loves Me?

God created you exactly the way He wanted—and for a critically important purpose. You have been given unique abilities to serve Him and make an impact on the world. But the world has tricked us into playing a comparison game and in so doing it’s easy to miss the specific purpose and calling that God has for you and I. 

Discover Your Purpose & Calling

Tired from the race to success? In this 5-Day plan, we will let Scripture remind us that God's definition of success looks completely different than the world's. In a hustle culture, we pray this will center you to do more of what matters instead of just getting things done. 

Success Is Obedience

God has gone before us and protects us from behind.  He has our battles already handled.  He has the blindside covered.  He isn’t surprised by curveballs.  This focused 3-day devotional will leave you encouraged in the truth that God is the provider of the exact portion, the exact measure, for your life.

Everything I Need

 If we’re not careful, a “mountain mindset”—climbing nonstop toward achievement and accolades—can choke the joy, rest, and reward out of life. Let’s spend a few days looking at the dangers of striving toward the heights and the benefits of pausing to develop a “valley mindset,” which leads us to places of renewal, rejuvenation, and remembering who we are as a son or daughter of the Living God.

Before You Climb Any Higher
