Richard StearnsIf I have learned anything about the purpose, meaning, and significance of life over the years, I have learned that, for a Christian, it is not found in any job, even a job like mine.

Meaning, purpose, and significance are found only by aligning our lives with God's purposes in lives committed to following Jesus Christ.
