Learning the Family Business It’s become less and less common that a child learns their life trade from their parents. In past history, the majority of people in the world would learn what would become their career, or life’s work, at home and from their parents. A child raised on the farm would learn…

We are called to be in the world, but not of it. Yet in our world today, we are surrounded by powerful, influential corporations. These entities are rarely aligned with Biblical ethics because they exist to make money. So how should Christians interact with them? How should we be customers, employees or even bosses in this complex, sinful world we are called to shine in, but not belong to? Join us as we explore God's words on this important topic.

13 Look here, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit.” 14 How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone. 15 What you ought…

Genetics is a funny thing. It is marvelous to see how traits are passed down from parent to child and the diversity that exists when the DNA of two people come together to form a new human being. I am one of eight children born to the same two parents. It is always striking to me how when we take a family…
