Working in Christ
The Christ-Centered Life, part 10: Living a life centered on Christ impacts the way we work. We no longer work just to please people, but primarily to serve and please Jesus. Though we are saved by grace, we have the joyful privilege of faithfully obeying and serving God.

Living Simply Under the Sun (Ecclesiastes)
There is an answer to Solomon's question "What does man gain by all [his] toil?" The answer lies in finding joy in all our toil, joy that only God can give, joy that God graciously does give to his people, and joy that recognizes that it is God who sovereignly appoints our toil. And not only that, but we have a greater and deeper joy in the gospel.

A Royal Priesthood
My purpose in preaching this passage is to show you this morning what your sacred calling is as a Christian. I also want to free you from the mindset of having to sit and wonder what it is that God has called you to as a ministry. I want you to understand that every Christian has a sacred calling to minister as a New Covenant priest and God has already said what the offering is to be. I also want you to understand that these sacrifices are not additions to the sacrifice of Christ but are proof positive of the radical change in you as the sacrifice of Christ has been applied to you in salvation and made you free to serve the living God with a clear conscience. Next week we will look at our priestly duty toward the church.

Redeeming Work
It is a common (although often unspoken) belief among Christians that God "calls" pastors and missionaries to serve, but not other jobs and professions - like being a teacher, lawyer, mechanic, or stay-at-home mom. The belief or assumption is that church work is service to the Lord, but not other work. This is not true! In this message, we look at how God calls and uses all of His people to bless His creation through their work.
