One of the fundamental premises of this Bible is that the gospel changes everything. If this is true, how does the gospel change the very thing we spend most of our waking hours doing - work.

The gospel has brought a new identity in Christ that then allows our work to no longer be the source of our identity but the rightful expression of it.

Many Christians understand the Bible to be a collection of stories without an overarching narrative.

We were created for a purpose and when our underlying assumptions don't reflect this deeper purpose, we begin to whither as human beings.

Our work is connected to much larger structures and systems that can be influenced and changed to align with God's intention to bring order and fruitfulness into the world.

Because of the gospel, God is doing a new work, and he invites us to participate in this innovative work that affects the entirety of our world.

One of the unique aspects of the Bible is that it is primarily a story illustrated by teaching and not primarily teaching illustrated by story.
