There’s a lot more that goes on in someone’s work that you might guess.

Take preaching.

Last week my colleague Eric was rudely attacked by a rogue wasp while he was preaching in the late service. Repeatedly the wasp came at him. Like a miniature jet fighter honing in on a target it aimed for his face as he preached away. He had to swat and preach, swat and preach. I wasn’t present, but I watched the video. It was the most heroic preaching effort I’ve ever seen. Finally, Wasim Khokhar, longtime Highland member, killed the wasp, and laid it at Eric’s feet.

Monday Morning Faith: Making Work Matter (Gen. 1-3) September 28, 2014 Chris Altrock

MondayMorningFaith_title 2We’re very glad that you are here today.

We know that “here” is just one of the many places you spend your time. That’s why we’re focusing the series that begins today on “Monday Morning Faith.” We want to equip you to live out your faith in all the places you spend time in, not just this place.

Today, we want to focus on equipping you to live out your faith at work. Why? Because work is the place where many of us spend most of our time. When Americans are asked to list where they spend time, here’s what they say:

  • Church-6% of our time
  • With Friends-7% of our time
  • Personal Time-16% of our time
  • With Family-35% of our time
  • Work-36% of our time

It’s probably not a surprise that many spend the bulk of their time at work. Work is a big part of life.Read More »Monday Morning Faith: Making Work Matter (Gen. 1-3) September 28, 2014 Chris Altrock
