The ordinary is extraordinary: A biblical theology of vocation

The Master's Seminary·The Master's Seminary·1:11:52

This lecture explores a biblical theology of vocation, emphasizing that all of life, including work, rest, and play, matters to God. It challenges the temptation to view the mundane as meaningless and instead argues for a rich understanding of duty infused with doxology, where ordinary faithfulness glorifies God.
