Work to the Glory of God

I deeply believe that I have been called to do the work I do. And that through the work I do, I have the amazing opportunity to glorify God.

Recently, I was able to preach a sermon entitled “Work to the Glory of God”. After listening back, I thought that this would be great to share with you. Whether you believe in God or not, I am confident you will find encouragement in what you are doing and maybe even clarity in things you desire to pursue.

Here are a few notes:

1. The way God works
   • God works to create – Gen 1
   • God works to care by providing for his creation – Gen 2
   • God works to cultivate – Gen 2:15 (work it and keep it)
   • This means:
     • Work is God-given (this is part of why we were created).
     • Work is good
2. The Gospel lens at work
   • Honor God first, earn a wage second (1 Cor 6:19-20)
   • Serve others, even at your own expense (Matt 20:25-28)
   • Work as unto the Lord (Col 3:23)
3. The way we work
   • As employees:
     • Work with respect and fear (Eph 6:5a)
     • Work with sincerity of heart (Eph 6:5b)
     • Work hard always (Eph 6:6)
     • Work with a good will (Eph 6:7)
   • As employers:
     • You are no better or different (titles at work distort worth and value)
     • Fear should not be used to motivate (God-honoring character motivates)
     • Treat everyone the same.
