An uphill Climb: The Wisdom of Work

An uphill Climb: The Wisdom of Work

In Proverbs 6:6–11, Solomon points us to the ant as an example of diligence and warns against the destructive path of laziness. Laziness is more than inactivity; it is a spiritual problem that causes us to neglect God-given responsibilities for lesser things. In this message, we consider the goodness of work, the importance of diligence, and how the Gospel reorients our lives toward purposeful service for Christ.

Wisdom's Trailhead (Proverbs 1:1-7)
