Labor as Worship: A Biblical Perspective on Work
In this special Labor Day edition of the Defender Bible Study, Rick Morton steps outside the usual format to explore the biblical view of work and its significance in the life of a believer. As we celebrate Labor Day, Rick reminds us that work is not just a means to an end, but a divine calling ordained by God. Join us as we delve into how we can work heartily for the Lord, embracing the true purpose of our labor.
