Biblical Perspective on Your Work Ethic
20 Verses to Align Your Work Ethic With the Bible
As administrators we often use secular and or business principles to run our church administration. This can benefit us and the church, but combined with a ‘the harvest is great, so the work is never finished’-work ethic, it can lead to burnout and an unhealthy way to approach our work in the church.
In this article from the Desiring God website, John Piper walks us through 20 verses that we can use to align our work ethic to the Bible.
Go back. Read the article. Pause and ask God to align your work ethic to his truth. Pray through the scriptures and let God show you how in control he is.
We serve an Almighty God, the Chief Administrator, who directs and guides us, even in the small things.
And if you are on the verge of burnout, go to God and go to the team around you. Be honest and let them help you in this season to carry the load.
