Episode notes

In the movie Chariots of Fire, a talented 100-meter sprinter is rebuked by his sister for not going to China as he had pledged and planned to do. Bob Hiller: Too many times, as Christians, we follow the patterns of the world with regard to work. Walter Strickland: Let each person lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him. Mike Horton: How does common grace provide in place redemptive culture where we receive it?

Is there a distinctly Christian way to go about our day jobs? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland consider what makes our work valuable. They challenge the human tendency to search for ultimate significance and satisfaction in our work, pointing listeners to God’s design for believers to live out their vocations under God’s pleasure, in the power of the Spirit, and within the rhythms of work and rest that he provides.
