Technology and Business: Your New Preaching Pulpit

Audio narration — available in the app

Colossians 3:23-24

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Reflection

A lot of people think that to truly serve God, you have to quit your job, buy an acoustic guitar, and move to a distant jungle as a missionary. And while God does call some to that, sometimes He lets us believe the lie that there are 'holy' jobs (like being a pastor) and 'common' jobs (like selling shoes, designing logos, or writing code).

That divide between the 'secular' and the 'sacred' is a human invention that frustrates many couples. Timothy Keller constantly reminded us that all honest work, done with excellence, is an act of worship. If you are a plumber, you repair God's created world; if you are a programmer, you bring order to digital chaos.

Picture this: you both are sitting there at 11 at night, with square eyes from staring at the screen, trying to get the online store to work or closing the monthly balance of your small startup. In that moment, it’s easy to think you are just 'surviving' or paying the bills, but the reality is much deeper.
