Do your work as an expression of love and service, ultimately to God, and then to your neighbour. – Garden City

The Basis

• Humans are called to advance the Creation project
• Cultural Mandate

Work: Non-optional

• Work is a blessing
• We need to sacrifice ourselves for community

Advancing the creation project: How?

Working like God works

• Excellence
• Self-Leadership
• Jesus lived a focused life
• Calling

Creation’s rhythm: Work and Rest

• Rest MOC
• Work and Rest are symbiotic

Work, a temptation
