Most of us have not heard a sermon on work before, and yet the Bible is very clear that work is a holy calling.  In this podcast, author and speaker, Os Hillman shares why work is a calling and gift from God, as well as some very practical ways a follower of Christ can integrate their faith and work. Using examples from his own experience of working in an ad agency, he talks about how God had to rebuild his identity, one based on Christ not what he did.
