Working In A Fallen World - Jonny Ardavanis

Why does work often feel so frustrating, unfulfilling, or even futile?In this sermon, we take an honest look at the reality of work in a world marred by sin. While God designed work as a meaningful and creative expression of His image in us, Genesis 3 reminds us that the fall has distorted everything — our relationship with God, with each other, and with our labor. We now face thorns, sweat, pride, envy, and disillusionment in our daily grind.But Scripture doesn’t leave us hopeless. This message explores how the Bible realistically acknowledges the pain of our work while offering a better way forward — a calling to work unto the Lord, even in broken systems and imperfect conditions. We were made for more than toil and chasing the wind. And in Christ, even our labor is not in vain.Join us as we examine the tension of living “East of Eden” and discover the redemptive hope God offers for our daily work.
