From Glue Guns to Glory: Method for Christian Service (Part 2 of 4)

The Life of Moses- Episode #33 (Part 2 of 4) 🎨 What if your most ordinary skill is the exact tool God wants to use today? We pick up our "Service" mini-series and move from the why of serving to the how, guided by the striking story of Bezalel and Aholiab in Exodus 35–36. These overlooked artisans were called by name, filled with the Spirit, and entrusted to craft beauty with precision for God’s dwelling. Their example reframes excellence as worship and reminds us that detail, design, and care are not extras in the Christian life—they’re part of faithful obedience.From there, we draw a line through the New Testament, spotlighting Mary’s surrendered praise, Elizabeth’s Spirit-given confirmation, Lydia’s courageous hospitality, Tabitha’s compassionate craft, and Priscilla’s wise mentorship. Many gifts, one Spirit; many methods, one Lord. Along the way, we challenge the false divide between “holy” and “human” talents and make a case that coding, organising, baking, and parenting can be Spirit-led ministry when offered to Jesus. We also share a quiet masterclass in hidden faithfulness from Robert Chapman, whose unseen service shaped giants like Spurgeon and Müller without chasing applause.You’ll walk away with a renewed why and a practical how: start small, hone your craft, teach what you know, and look for the need only you can meet. Whether you’re hosting a weary friend, discipling a new believer, or building systems that serve your church, the Holy Spirit delights to multiply your loaves and fish.
