Work as Worship

Does your faith clock out when you clock in? For a lot of men, Sunday is for God, and Monday through Saturday is just survival—you do your job, come home depleted, and work stops meaning anything beyond the paycheck. In this episode, Chris Alessi takes the Man-Up challenge into the place most men spend the majority of their time: work. Unpacking Colossians 3:23, Chris shows how Paul blows the divide between faith and work wide open: whatever you do, laying tile, running a sales meeting, driving a delivery truck, you’re working for Christ, not just a human master. That reframe changes your posture: less dependent on recognition, less derailed by difficult coworkers, less likely to cut corners when nobody's watching, because Somebody is always watching, and He's keeping the real record. Verse of the DayColossians 3:23-24 (NIV) — "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."Tap HERE to send us a text!NEW TO THE MEN’S MORNING DEVOTIONAL? Welcome!The Men's Morning Devotional is a podcast to help you man up in every way - in your faith, your family and your work - by spending a few minutes getting into the Word before you face the world. Every weekday, you'll get a challenge and encouragement from Scripture that speaks to the pressures you carry as a husband, a father, and a leader.
