Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. Colossians 3:23-24
One of the areas that churches have overlooked when it comes to making disciples is what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ in the workplace. I have blogged about this on a number of occasions but I just wanted to pass along a few resources so that you can think more deeply about God’s Word and how it relates to your day-to-day job.
- BOOKS:
- Every Good Endeavor by Tim Keller. This is the best book I have read about living as a follower of Jesus Christ in the workplace. A number of years ago I shared quite a few quotes from this book. You can find the quotes HERE.
- The Gospel at Work by Sebastian Traeger and Greg Gilbert.
- God at Work by Gene Veith.
- OTHER RESOURCES:
- Gospel Shaped Work by The Good Book. We used this curriculum in one of our Adult Sunday School classes last year.
- Institute for Faith, Work and Economics
If you have found other resources helpful in this area of Christian living please feel free to share them with me. Would love to hear from you!
