So much is wrapped up in our work and each book of the Bible points to Christ and the good news of what he's done that impacts the whole of our lives and the whole of our world. When our eyes are opened to see how each book of the Bible points us to the gospel, the relevance to our work and the need for this good news to enter into our work becomes increasingly evident.

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.

Our identity was bestowed upon us by God and when humanity rebelled against God, we were divorced from the source of our identity. In this vacuum, work can wrongfully become the source of our identity wreaking havoc on our lives and work. Work was never meant to carry the weight of our identity.

When we try to find our sense of security, value, worth from our work, we'll find ourselves anxiety-ridden and burdened.

The often-surprising truth for many people is that we all integrate faith into our work, but most of the time we're completely unaware of what faith underlies our attitudes and responses to our work.

The Great Commission will not be fulfilled with our spare time or spare money.

When we think about our work it deals with our motivations, our desires, our sense of security, purpose, and status. Our work deals with a whole host of relationships. Work impacts the flourishing of individuals, communities, and nations.
