The Sacred Ordinary: Holy Work

What if your most ordinary moment today is also your most holy?In this opening episode of The Sacred Ordinary we begin a six week journey into the places where faith actually lives — not in the cathedral but in the kitchen, the garden, the waiting room, and the quiet Tuesday morning. Drawing from the life and writings of Brother Lawrence — a 17th century monk who discovered God in forty years of washing pots — we explore what it means to do holy work. Not the impressive kind. The ordinary kind. The kind that nobody notices but God.Whether you are still working, recently retired, caring for someone you love, or somewhere in between — this sermon is for you. Because holy work is not measured by the size of the task. It is measured by the love with which it is performed.What if your most ordinary moment today is also your most holy?In this opening episode of The Sacred Ordinary we begin a six week journey into the places where faith actually lives — not in the cathedral but in the kitchen, the garden, the waiting room, and the quiet Tuesday morning.
