Workplace Sunday.

Workplace Sunday is a Sunday service dedicated to the celebration of God’s gift of work and the encouragement of working people among us. It is a great way to support those making a difference where they are throughout the week.

How we do work is very important to God. So important that the Bible is strewn with advice on how to please God at work. We are told to do our work for the glory of God, we are called to be diligent in all we do – even if we are  not appreciated. God who gave us coding, building, artistic and many other skills expects us to use these skills in a way that brings honour to Him. God also promises that he would always be with us as we work to glorify him – and would bless us richly.

So, are there examples we can learn from in the Bible? Well Joseph and Daniel comes to mind. Both were taken to foreign lands against their will; nonetheless over time, they flourished – Joseph rising to be second in command to the Pharaoh of Egypt and Daniel rising to the top of the ranks in hostile Babylon.

There’s much more we could say about the world of work and how God blesses us through our work; and we will – on Sunday 25th February 2018. Please join us!
