You Have Something the World Needs

Theology of Work

You have an inner need to work because you are made in the image of God; it's a good thing that you also have something the world needs through your work. The world needs you to provide your share of your household's needs, to the degree you are able in each season of your life. The world needs you to invest in others' work. Some ways include providing means, welcoming and encouraging, cooperating, appreciating others' work, protecting, partnering, and, of course, buying others' work. God is the source of your ability to give the world what it needs. Will Messenger preached this sermon on October 18, 2015, at Reservoir Church in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He referenced these scripture passages: John 5:17, 9:4; Genesis 2:4-5; 2 Thessalonians 3:10; Ruth 2:17-23; Mark 4:3-9, 20. https://www.theologyofwork.org/resources/you-have-something-the-world-needs
