Episode notes

There's a point brought up about the cultural mandate emerging out of Genesis 2.15. It really begins to show some of the different ways in which even Christians talk about this. The great commission is not going to all the world now and rule and subdue, it's going to preach the gospel.

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.
