Walter Strickland: Sabbath re-aligns our understanding of work to be in line with the creators' understanding of it. He says on that seventh day, we reconnect with the give of life and refocus on him. In a very practical way, he says, "Sabbathin" allows us to do things that we normally don't get to do in our nine to five.
When we talk about work, it’s easy to jump right to the Fall and consider how work is frustrated by sin. But how does the pre-Fall creation narrative shape our understanding of vocation? And what does that mean for a post-Fall reality? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, and Bob Hiller are joined by special guest Walter Strickland in a new series examining the doctrine of vocation. This episode looks at the goodness inherent to work, what it looks like to image God in our vocations, and how the Sabbath shapes our approach to the work week.
