Made for Excellence

from NewStory Church Hosted by NewStory Church

Does God care whether you are good at your job or not? Dorothy Sayers famously noted that the first thing the church should tell a carpenter isn't just moral rules, but: Make good tables. When the church goes silent on excellence, culture lowers the bar with "Quiet Quitting" and "Bare Minimum Mondays".In Part 2 of Faith at Work, Pastor Tom Kang explores Exodus 31 and the story of Bezalel—the very first person in Scripture described as being filled with the Spirit of God. He wasn't a priest or prophet, but a blue-collar craftsman gifted with hokmâ (skill and craftsmanship). Because Jesus already did all things well on the cross, we don't work for God’s approval—we work from His approval. Learn how to pursue excellence for an Audience of One and discover the freedom of putting the chisel down to rest.
