Theology of Work Project: Philippians

Paul's letter to the Philippians provides a different sort of answer to the question of where we find strength to do our work. The apostle says that our work is not the result of our own efforts, but of God's work in and through us. This eight-week study explores a variety of work-related topics for today's Christian worker, ranging from attitude, ambition, and conflict, to service, provision, and the source of our energy. Each chapter includes three 30-minute practical lessons, complete with Scripture references and thought-provoking questions, for individuals or groups at work during their lunch hour. Whether considering the apostle's own work or hearing his challenges in his letter, this is an opportunity to understand how Christ's character affects his followers in the contemporary workplace.
