Reflections of Theology of Work Class
By: Christopher K. Several years ago I decided to embark on a career path in finance. Despite popular disdain for the industry at the time—and perhaps still to this day—I had heard the money was good and that the hours would be “ridiculous.” I needed the money and I thought a busy lifestyle would give me a sense of importance. The decision was very...

Overworked and Looking for Love
Hear two recognized experts—one a clinical psychologist and the other a leading theologian—discuss the realities of trying to find love in the midst of over-worked and over-booked schedules. Through the research and data he’s accumulated over the many years, E-Harmony founder Neil Clark Warren has identified 29 dimensions of compatibility that are important...

Working at Worship
By: Maria Fee Writing on the original meaning and use of the word liturgy Nicholas Wolterstorff considers how “leitourgia never did mean action of the people. It meant action for the benefit of the people.” According to Wolterstorff the liturgy was actually considered “a type of public service.” (Wolterstorff, Major Themes in Reform Tradition, p. 2...

In My Solitude
By: Kenyon Adams It is arguable that the most important time in which an artist may invest is not in networking meetings or collaborative workshops but rather in time spent alone. I am not necessarily speaking of studio time or the practice room either, but of true, unencumbered, undistracted solitude. I realize that I am addressing urban dwellers so let me explain wha...

Kingly Work and the Paradox of Power
Power is not inherently bad. All of us possess an innate need to make an impact upon the world. Yet, when we acquire power we tend to use that power for our selfish purposes rather than for the greater good. Therefore, Christians in positions of power must be people of repentance. We must be quick to turn away from our tendency to aggrandize ourselves...

Being Displays Itself
By: Maria Fee We are people of the Word but our beloved text points to gathered sounds that ultimately utter God’s actions. From burning bush to a son nailed onto a tree—we hear activity. The whole biblical narrative from creation, fall, alienation to reconciliation exhibits, as von Balthasar relates, God’s “genuine unfolding of himself in the worl...

Prophetic Work
A prophet is someone who speaks God’s truth. This makes it particularly intriguing that when Jesus feeds the hungry in the Gospel of John, he is recognized as a prophet without giving any speeches. This means that, like Jesus, we can communicate prophetically to the world through our deeds and our work. With the Bible as our guide, we can communicate ...

Priestly Work
In the Old Testament, the priests had a specific and privileged function. God appointed them to be the mediators between God and His people. The New Testament, however, teaches that all Christians are called to be priests. When we apply this to our work, it means three things. First, we have a deep purpose for our work because we can worship God throu...

Whenever Our Hearts Condemn Us
By: Kenyon Adams This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his comman...

Becoming Fully Human
All of us desire greatness because we were made great; we were created with the image of God. Yet sin has shrunken our souls and turned us into a fraction of the men and women that God would have us be. In this sense, Jesus was the first truly human being. He demonstrates what we would be like if we lived without the sin that cripples us. And Jesus ca...
