What Does Freedom Mean to You?

Our country, a nation built on the value of freedom, is a mess… but not for the reason you think. It’s largely a mess because many of those who call themselves “Christians” have chosen to live in freedom from the obligation to do right and freedom to pursue self-interest under the guise of the “American Dream,” rather than in Jesus’ freedom.

It's The End of The World as We Know it

It's the end of the world as we know it.

  • When Jesus was killed on the Cross, likely the disciples thought these very words, in Hebrew, of course.

  • When Jesus rose from the dead, they likely thought these words again but for a different reason.

  • In 300 ad, when Constantine adopted Christianity as the religion of choice for the Roman empire, likely the disciples of Jesus thought these same words – It's the end of the world as we know it.

But what about today? Is the world ending? Yes. This week? This month? This year? Only our Father knows.

Its Simple Really

If you are a listener to the iWork4Him Podcast, then you will understand when I say, “You are a workplace missionary.” Your ministry exists within your workplace – whatever that workplace looks like. As a workplace missionary, you represent the Creator God, Almighty King of the Universe, The Savior of the World, and the very Counselor of God. You are perfectly equipped to represent God in your workplace through fantastic work effort, a great work attitude, and a prayerful heart to bring Jesus with you to work every day.

Do You Have 2020 Vision?

Happy New Year! Most of us will not mourn the passing of 2020. It was a year of fear and strife. It was a year of lost freedoms and lost loved ones. It was a year we may want to forget but will likely remember forever. When the year began, remember how many people said 2020 would be the year of 20/20 Vision & Clarity? That the number of the year: 2020 represented so much hope and promise. Did that play out? I think it did, just not the way we expected.

In 2020 the U.S. Culture deemed the church non-essential. We saw church doors closed on penalty of a fine. The church was extricated from its buildings. We saw this as a problem, but God can use it for good. Removing the 4-walls from the church forced the church to be everywhere. Our communities are hurting and hopeless, and the church is the messenger of healing and hope.

So, where is the clarity for 2020?

You Have The Power To Turn Around This Country - Vote - Biblical Values

Hold on tight because I’m going to share some staggering statistics with you in this post. My friend, Chad Connelly with www.FaithWins.us , informed me that the ‘church going vote’ in America is the most powerful voting bloc that exists in our country. Let me say that again, the most powerful voting bloc in the United States, if it was fully engaged, is church goers. The bad news is – the church isn’t showing up and it doesn’t know how to vote with a biblical world view.

Keeping it Simple

Are you stressed? Are financial pressures causing you to eat too much? After watching the evening news do you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders? When you look at your calendar of video meetings, are you burdened by the unending tasks? Maybe it’s the uncertainty of the future that keeps you up at night.

Nineveh: The Day Before Jonah Shows Up

Last night I woke up just after midnight with the word “Nineveh” impressed on my mind. God reminded me of the story of Jonah found in the Old Testament of the Bible. The night before Jonah arrived at Nineveh, it was a place much like America today, with wickedness running rampant. In Jonah Chapter 3, Jonah is called once again to the great city of Nineveh to let them know that if they didn’t repent, in 40 days they would be destroyed.

God used one obedient human, Jonah, to save a city of 120,000 people.

Who is our Jonah of today? Who is going to preach to our country that we need to repent?

Put a Fish on it Part 2

Ask yourself this question: Do I need a fish symbol for people to know I am a Christian at work?

This cartoon really symbolizes some of the reasons for decline in the United States of America. Way too many Christians, including me early on in my marketplace career, have used a fish symbol to indicate their “conversion” instead of using a transformed heart that “Loves the Lord your God with all your heart, Mind and Soul and loves your neighbor as yourself”. Too much religion is about arrogance and rules and power. Jesus was all about bringing inner healing , “LIVING WATER” he said. He wasn’t about pomp and circumstance.

Starting to make sense?

I think you can see it now. The world is a mess. So much anger, frustration, hurt, calamity, disease. A mess. That is what sin does – steal, kill and destroy. It is why iWork4Him exists.

The people who are hurting so badly, every color of skin, every nationality, men and women everywhere are overwhelmed by the hopelessness of life…without Jesus.

It’s Just Not Funny Anymore

It used to be funny when the people our culture complained about the most were the Christians; it’s just not funny anymore. Let’s find commonality with those who also claim to follow Jesus. Enough of the stupid. We all follow Jesus.
