Is your job just a way to make a living—or is it something more? In Episode #656, “Work and Shalom: 6 Reasons Why Your Job Truly Matters,” we explore the deep biblical and theological truth that your work is a sacred part of God’s mission in the world.

Drawing from Genesis, the teachings of Jesus, and the concept of shalom—God’s vision of peace, wholeness, and flourishing—we uncover how ordinary jobs have extraordinary spiritual value. Whether you’re a mechanic, teacher, manager, technician, or barista, your role contributes to the restoration of God’s creation.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why work is part of God’s original design, not a post-Fall punishment
  • How every honest vocation, from janitor to CEO, contributes to human flourishing
  • What Jesus’ years as a carpenter teach us about the dignity of labor
  • How your job becomes a primary way to love your neighbor
  • Why we’ll still work in the new creation—and what that means for today
  • How your current role has eternal value when done with excellence and purpose

If you’ve ever wondered whether your work matters in God’s grand plan, this episode will reassure and equip you. You’re not just clocking in—you’re reflecting God’s character and participating in His restoration of the world.

Listen now and see how your work and shalom are beautifully intertwined.
