Joy that surpasses all circumstances is joy that comes from working with Jesus — He is your greatest work partner! Watch to better understand your calling and your purpose — to follow Jesus and do the very same work He did — starting at the place where God has you right now.

Work for your highest, best, and longest use. Quit working for what is temporary achievement, to please others, to pay the bills, or even to put food on the table. The reason you work is what you serve — work for food that lasts forever. Work for the reason you were made. Work for the glory of God!

Working for ultimate reasons is the only way to have lasting joy, fulfillment, and satisfaction. This reason to work is something you can earn. You can’t “do in order to get” this purpose. It’s also something you’re not going to feel a burden about having to do once you accept it. The chief reason for work is offered to you for free. To obtain it you must receive it.

Everyone desires a fulfilling job, yet too many remain unsatisfied in their work. Watch as Howard explains the most compelling reason to work. Learn how to fulfill the way you are made — becoming the very hands, feet, and face of God — creating, activating, implementing as you serve others.

Are you satisfied with your work? The overwhelming majority of people are not satisfied with their work. Our work does not create enough flourishing, stability, personal growth, meaningful purpose, community and satisfaction to fulfill the way we were made. There has to be a better way!

Lewis says can lead to a 16X life and so much more, even while we are still on this planet! God is offering infinitely more than we can think or imagine in eternal life and right now. Will you let Him have His way with you?

Evil is not just evil by itself. Evil must attack good to be evil. “Evil is a parasite, not an original thing.” Watch this discussion of C.S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity, Part 2, to see the ways good and evil play out in every day life and how Jesus creates a way for us to return to good — as we were intended and to help others do the same.
