Work

Most of us will spend more time working at a job than doing anything else.  Yet, for too many Christians, work is just something we tolerate to “make it to the weekend”.  In this 4-day study, we’ll look at what Scripture says about work and innovation. The goal is to help you find more purpose in your career by applying an innovative mindset.

Redefining Work  

We live in a world that categorizes people. And if we’re honest, we have this inner desire to be associated with the winners, the successful, the up and coming. How do we reconcile this with who Christ calls us to be? In this 4-day reading plan, Pete Briscoe shares what the bible says about treating people differently based on how you “categorize” them and asks you to examine your heart.

Letting Go Of Pride By Pete Briscoe

In every sphere of life, it’s the extraordinary ones who are celebrated and sought after. Daniel Mahimairaj, in this practical study, talks about going beyond the superficial because peak performance is not achieved by superficial engagement. Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. He reminds us of our true calling to stand out and walk the talk.

A Cut Above the Rest

What does the Bible say about the amount of time we should put into work each week? What about household chores? Do they count as "work"? While the Bible isn't definite about how much time we should spend working, it does give guidelines so that we can make prayerful decisions about our own situations. 

How Much Work Is Enough?

Work takes up the majority of our waking hours; it is the most significant activity in our lives. This makes sense if we look through Genesis 1–2 and see that work is the first command we receive from God. We were created to work with God in stewarding his creation. In this series we will look at different dimensions of our work in light of God’s word.

OUR WORK AS WORSHIP

Welcome! We are so excited that you want to explore God’s unique plan for your life.

Enjoy the journey!

Here are just a few tips as you jump in:  

• Come prepared mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.  
• Shut out all distractions. 
• Start with prayer.  Keep communication between you and God open and easy by confessing any unconfessed sin, accepting His forgiveness, and asking Him to speak to your heart through Bible study.   
• Take your time.  Read all of the verses listed, listen for God’s voice. You may want to write in a journal as you go so you can track your spiritual progress and remember what God says to you. 


The Discovery: Exploring God’s Call On Your Life 

God knows you're busy. Me, too, brother. But none of us get an exemption from His exhortation to "Be Still." This isn't just a command but it's also a beautiful invitation into something better than busyness, distraction, and stress. This 4 day plan will help you get honest with yourself and equip you to engage with God as he reminds you of his good and perfect plan for your life.
