Episode notes

For me, it comes down to the question, what is gospel work? There are some traditions that would say, yeah, fixing the roof is gospel work. Many of those who are in the Neo-Kiberian tradition, which I've been heavily influenced by, but I'm not a lemming of them. For me, there are gospel implications to fixing the roof of a neighbor because why? Because I as a Christian, one who's been transformed, demonstrates and then also proclaims 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.
