In week two of our Work in Progress series, Ryan Brown explores how God uses our everyday work as a vital part of our discipleship. Looking at Paul's words in Colossians, we discover that following Jesus is not confined to Sundays or small groups—it shapes how we live, serve, and relate to others wherever God has placed us.

In the opening message of our Work in Progress series, Jeff Norris explores God's design for work from Genesis to Revelation.
