How do we grapple with the tough things in life? At Wrestling God, Work Reimagined, participants were invited to wrestle with the brokenness in their own lives as well as the city around them. God invites us to wrestle with him directly so he can name us and bless us. As we are blessed, we can better serve the city, our professions and the institutions in which we work.
God sacrifices himself for those who are weak. What if the cross is the way God works through everyone he loves? We wrestle for blessings from our work, family and other idols but we can only get blessings from God. Tim Keller explores this thesis and says that all Christians with true joy have a limp like Jacob.
Everyone worships something. What we worship as Christians provides a vision to build a life on. We are citizens of both this earth and the new earth to come. Roberta Ahmanson explains why having a prophetic vision of what is to come is so important to our work in the present.
