How We Renew the City: His Story, Our Work (Videos)

What does it look like to renew the city? What role does our work play in God’s renewal of all things? In the first video, author and speaker Amy Sherman asks how we can look for the “redemptive edge” in our work, and how we are called to both “creative renewal” and “prophetic critique” in our […]
God Provides Our Hammers

By Amy Sherman.Pursuing the journey of vocational stewardship as a church is not about “three easy steps and you’re done.” It’s an evolving process that looks different at different times and contexts. And it’s not one-size-fits-all. Moses enjoyed a very clear call from God (not many of us get a burning bush experience!). But he […]

Prayer for the Work Day

Here is a beautiful prayer for the work day written by Bishop Charles Lewis Slattery (1867-1930): Prayer for the Work Day Almighty God, thank Thee for the job of this day.

God-Designed Work

Did you realize that God commands us to work and he is even specific about the amount of time? “Remember the Sabbath day, and keep in holy.  Six days you shall labor and do all your work.  But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God: you shall not do any work.” […]

What’s the Purpose of Business?

Dorothy Sayers can sure pack a punch.  After the second world war, in a reflection on how to rebuild the economy she wrote:“But what are we to say about a civilization which employs so many of its workers in doing work which has no worth at all, work which no living man with a soul […]

Do You Have a Job or a Profession?

The difference between the two isn’t about white collar versus blue collar, salary versus hourly wages, or masters degree versus high school diploma. It isn’t even necessarily about enjoying your work. The key is a commitment to the moral purpose of our work – doing our work the way it ought to be done. We […]

“I Wish My Work Mattered”

“I just wish I did work that mattered as much as your work does.” I was wrapping up lunch with a new friend when he dropped this line. His comment didn’t catch me off-guard. Frankly, it didn’t surprise me at all. I hear this comment—and close iterations of it—a lot. And I’m really tired of […]

Meaningless Jobs?

What might Christianity say to those who are “stuck” in entry-level, hourly jobs? What can we say to those organizing clothes at The Gap, steaming espressos at Starbucks, or selling laptops at Best Buy? High ideals are perhaps not hard to find in medicine, law or social work. But what about the rest of us […]
