A pure heart leads to consistent intent, feelings and actions. A confused or clouded heart leads to duplicity, misalignment, and inconsistency in thoughts, feelings, and actions. As leaders, we all want to grow to be more consistent in order to make a significant difference in the lives of others.

Too many people approach life and work as trying to get what they earned. They believe they deserve more. Jesus proclaims a new approach to work in His Kingdom and the effects are as radical as they are comprehensive. Watch as Howard explains the spiritual and practical blessing of being merciful.

Mercy is compassion that moves past sympathy and empathy to help someone get what they need — whether they deserve it or not. What if in all of our relationships — especially business relationships — we all sought to help people get what they need instead of insisting we get what we deserve?

The mercy of God is one of the most precious realities in the world, one of the most revealing themes in all the Bible, and one of the most tragically misunderstood truths about God. If you want to know who God really is, if you want to peek into his heart, it is not the display of his just wrath and cosmic power to which you should look. Rather, set your eye on his mercy, without minimizing the fullness of his might, and take in the life-changing panorama.

Tim Keller sermons via Gospel in Life: This sermon looks at the account of Matthew the tax collector coming to faith in Jesus Christ. To be called to faith in Jesus means to be called away from something toward something else— there’s a negative and a positive element. To come to Christ means that old foundations have to be broken up, and that includes your approach to religion. How do we know we’ve moved away from “religion” and toward true Christianity? 1) We must understand that religion is a way of dividing the world into “good” people and “bad” people. 2) We must see that Jesus gives us the true standard. 3) We must observe the way we deal with moral failure.

Everyone wants to be right. Everyone wants to be validated. Watch as Howard explains how we are made right and how we receive validation — how we are made righteous! Learn very practical ways of how hungering and thirsting for righteousness is the great advantage for all of life and work.

God invites us to so much more than just regular every day work and hitting the next quarterly goal, the next strategic objective, or client project. Jesus calls us to know Him, and to take on His character, and then do this very same glorious work that He came to earth to do. We all have this opportunity to do truly satisfying work, every single day.
