• TheValue
“The essential modern heresy, is that work is not the expression of man’s creative energy in the service of Society, but only something one does in order to obtain money and leisure.”
Dorothy Sayers

1. Work is a curse
2. Leisure and rest are virtuous
3. How much we “have” determines our value and influence.
4. Work is good for glorifying self.

So we learn that...
1. God is a worker
2. Work is good and valuable in itself
3. It is necessary for subduing and harnessing the potential of creation for us and others
4. It glorifies God.

• The Rest
“When our rest becomes about squandering time, mindless consumption, or sensuality, we do not actually enter into Sabbath rest, and our souls remain weary, tattered, and heavy, unready for the work that lies ahead.”

“we cannot enjoy the Sabbath simply by abstinence, by giving up, by laying aside. Instead, Sabbath requires that we take up the very things that feed and nourish the soul.”

Give Online
Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
