#3 EXPLORE THE BIBLE’S LABOR DAY LESSONS WITH OTHERS.
Say what? Yeah, you’ve likely heard the stories but digging into them deeper with others (a child, friend, spouse, co-worker, training friend or other person) can fuel fresh perspective on the age-old practice of LABOR. Here are a few to get you started:
The fishermen become fishers of men
Adam, Eve and the impact of disobedience on our labor
Israelite workers told to make bricks without straw
Jesus parable about earnings and agreements
Whatever Bible stories you read take time to discuss how the message applies to life today. Consider why God makes hard work an integral part of the faith experience. What are the kingdom upside down perspectives — the different way of thinking about work that God wants us to have? Think about what lessons your work life has given you that has helped you grow in your faith.
