We all work based on our strongest belief about life and work. What you believe determines how you work. Jesus invites you to work the very same way He did. This is a mind blowing invitation that becomes practical as we become the living sacrifice for the good of others that we are called to be.

The way you work is an operational response to what you believe about life and work. Your values, systems, process, methods, and unique actions are all informed by what you think is true. What you think is most important determines the way you work.

Far too many of us are working to prove something or to earn our way. This reason to work creates unnecessary stress because the finish line keeps moving.

Watch and see how this is more than theory or theology — this is practical for everyday. We were made to work gloriously for Glory.

You were made to create and to creatively bring order out of chaos. Be fruitful and multiply, develop families, cities, schools and organizations. Build roads, make art, plant crops, design technology — all while making the world a better place. Watch and see how working with the gifts you have been given is as practical as it is life giving
