The Carpenter's Plows: Finding Glory in Ordinary Work at Year's End


Listen Later

Farmers were still using plows made by Jesus 100+ years later. For much of his short adult life,  the Creator of the universe did manual labor in Nazareth—and did it with excellence. Os Guinness asks: What made Jesus' plows last and stand out? If carpentry wasn't beneath the One who raised the dead, no honest work is beneath you. For those struggling this year-end—out of work, underemployed, can't afford the Christmas you hoped for—remember: drudgery done for God is lifted and changed. Excellence in the ordinary is your calling.

Scripture: Colossians 3:23-24, Matthew 6:31-33
