Labor Day/Glorious Work - Video

from Hicksville Mennonite Hosted by Jay Mast

The speaker is encouraging everyone to “labor together over the Word” on Labor Day weekend. The message opens by explaining why the teaching moves from Exodus 20 to Exodus 31. The speaker briefly summarizes the chapters in between—God giving detailed instructions about worship, community life, restitution, festivals, and the construction of the tabernacle. The focus of the sermon becomes clear: God values work—skilled, Spirit-enabled, purposeful work. The passage highlights how God personally calls and equips individuals with ability, intelligence, craftsmanship, and creativity to accomplish His purposes. The speaker connects this to Labor Day and the church’s reorganization Sunday, emphasizing that work is not a curse but a gift rooted in creation itself. Work is hard, but it is holy, meaningful, and part of God’s design for human flourishing. The tone is warm, practical, and encouraging—inviting listeners to see their daily labor as participation in God’s good purposes.
