Think about where you spend the bulk of your time from Monday-Friday. Whether it's school, home, an office, or a bevy of volunteer sites, you might think of this as your workplace. Every week we spend many hours working and maybe 1-2 hours worshipping and growing in our faith...but what if it didn't have to be that way?
Imagine what it would look like if we could start viewing our workplace as a place for worship, prayer, and service.
Imagine what it would be like to connect with God in the ordinary and mundane moments of the workweek!
Sound intriguing? If so, you're in luck: that's what our new fall series is all about!
- Week 1: Work and Creation (The one where we embrace work as a gift from God and learn how to bring it into worship with us!)
- Week 2: Work and Sin (The one where we reflect on the consequences of missing the mark at work...and how God can bring redemption out of our mess.)
- Week 3: Trusting God's Work (The one where we remember that God is doing big things through even our smallest workplace actions!)
- Week 4: Jesus and Work (The one where we learn more about Jesus' day job...and how his occupation might have been a bit different than you've envisioned!)
- Week 5: Work and Firstfruits (The one where we talk about ancient tithes--the Israelites actually gave more than 10%!--and what giving back looks like for us today.)
- Week 6: Work and Vocation (The one where we learn about how God might be calling us into ministry here in the Great Plains Annual Conference!)
- Week 7: Work and Rest (The one where we remember that taking time off glorifies God!)
