Earth is our workshop assigned by God, and we are not here simply to keep ourselves from sin. We are also here to drive sin away and nullify its effect in the created order. We must build according to God’s pattern. God changes the world from the inside out, starts small and grows big, transforms every aspect of life, and uses people with servants’ hearts. This is the work to which we must give ourselves: learning to apply God’s Word practically to our sphere of influence and using our problems as the building blocks for our growth.
