Work, in its original form, was not tortuous toil. Adam and Eve began working before the words of the curse that spoke of the arduous, onerous task of living in a world of thorns and eating by the sweat of the brow. Work in its basic form is not an affliction, but wholesome productivity. We could define work as doing what needs to be done to sustain life. Adam and Eve were to work the garden and take care of it, thus taking care of themselves, sustaining the lives God had given them. |

I was in the sixth grade when I heard it. Growing up in church developed my passion for the Bible. I remember setting down my pipe cleaners as a toddler in the pew to listen to what the preacher had to say. I remember in Elementary school becoming interested in weekly Bible stories. But I did not hear it then. I remember during Middle School being distracted by changes in my body (and especially in the bodies of girls around me), but it was then that I first heard it. A challenge that would alter my world, even though I often fail at it. A new routine that would drastically reshape the way I fundamentally thought about, well, everything! |

Proverbs 22:21 How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word. In a general sense, it can be said that the Bible was written to convict sinners of sin and to equip believers for service. It equips for evangelism. Philip the evangelist uses Isaiah 53 to point the Ethiopian eunuch to Christ in Acts 8:26–35. How is God's Word equipping you to evangelism? Is there an action you need to take? |
