In this episode of Tell Me More, hosts Luke Stehr, Katy Reed Hodges, and Dr. Dennis Wiles dive into the Flourishing Survey, the wisdom of ants, and Dr. Wiles’ Sunday message, “Working 9 to 5,” based on Proverbs 6:1–19.

Dr. Wiles unpacks how God designed us to live as relational, productive, and purposeful beings — created in His image and called to flourish through our work and relationships. Together, the team explores four key ideas:

• Potential – We all have the God-given capacity to serve and honor Him through our gifts.
• Productivity – Work is a reflection of God’s own creativity and fruitfulness.
• Perspective – A biblical understanding of work transforms how we see our daily tasks.
• Profit – The true reward of our work extends beyond a paycheck — it’s found in serving others and advancing God’s Kingdom.

From Proverbs to the parable of the industrious ant, this episode offers both practical wisdom and spiritual encouragement for anyone seeking meaning in their “9 to 5.”
  

Tune in, reflect, and be reminded that your work — whatever it looks like — is worship.
