God’s mission is too important to be left just to missionaries. For too long, there’s been a divide between sacred and secular, causing Christians to choose between ministry and work. But what if work has always been ministry in God’s design? What if your job was always meant to be the central means of God’s mission? Join us to examine the theology of work and how a fresh look at the intersection of work and ministry changes everything.
