Your Job is a Good Work!

My guest post at the Willow Creek Association leadership blog. Here’s the start:

When most of us think of good works, we tend to think of things like giving money to those in need, encouraging a friend who is discouraged, or going on a short-term mission trip.

All of those things are critical and important, and definitely are good works.

However, it’s easy to think that these types of things are the only things that God considers good works. That good works are something relatively rare and infrequent. If you go on a mission trip, you are engaging in good works. But when you go to your job each day you are doing … what, exactly?

    Your job, if done as best you can for Christ and God’s glory is worship. It is a good work if dedicated to the Lord with thanksgiving for his gifting you to do the work. Or, by His grace enabling you to co labor with Him in common grace (His good) for all….saved and unsaved.

    It’s your spiritual act of worship
