Delight in Submission | Get(ting) Out of work
from Christ City Cast · host Christ City Church
What would change tomorrow if you forgot about serving others — and simply served the work?In Week 5 of our post-Easter series, we learn that for work to become a delight and fulfillment, it has to become something we submit to — not a means of getting something, but the medium through which we offer our whole selves to God. And in one of the most counterintuitive moves in the series: serving the work — not the people — is actually the only way to truly serve the people.Reflection Questions:What would be different if I "forgot the community and served the work" tomorrow?Where have I experienced the goodness of someone who was truly "serving the work"?Scripture: Colossians 3:15-24, Proverbs 3:6, Romans 12:1, John 6:38, Matthew 6:8-10Voices:Dorothy Sayers, Why Work?
