Are you striving to be successful in life while disregarding Christ? Or do you think abiding in Christ means you can slack off on your commitments and responsibilities? Rather, we should strive to trust and abide in Christ so God can transform us into His likeness over time. Join Connecting Faith and Work host Bob Willbanks and producer Larry Kutzler as they discuss how to strive towards abiding in Christ in our day to day lives.

Challenge: Consider the Fruits of the Spirit. Are they one or two words that illuminate why you are working so hard. Which ones are you striving towards? How can you abide in Christ in that area of your life?

Scripture to reflect on: ""Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?" declares the LORD. "These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word."" - Isaiah 66:2
