The Christian view of vocation is this is the avenue for love, not justification. The only way to be righteous is for Jesus Christ to carry that load. He died for you and he rose for you. And on account of his work, his vocation was to declare you righteous before God.
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.
