"Your job is not just a job. It's an altar."
How do different strategies aid in addiction recovery? This week, Aaron Shaw brings a refreshing perspective on worship and work. In the second instalment of the 'Everyday Altar' series, Aaron challenges traditional views on worship, suggesting that it extends beyond Sunday services or songs. Instead, worship is a lifestyle, something that can be expressed through daily work. He draws inspiration from biblical teachings, particularly from Paul’s letters, to argue that our jobs can serve as altars where we honour God.
Aaron addresses the common disconnect between faith and work, urging listeners to integrate their spiritual calling with their professional lives. He provides a relatable take on how most people feel about their jobs, using humour and statistics to highlight that 85% of workers are disengaged or unhappy. Aaron’s message is clear: it's not about needing a new job but adopting a new perspective.
Listeners are encouraged to view their work as an opportunity to reflect God's image and serve as witnesses to others. By working with integrity and purpose, even in jobs they dislike, believers can turn mundane tasks into acts of worship. Aaron’s candid discussion about his own work experiences adds authenticity and relatability, making it easier for listeners to connect with his message.
Aaron’s closing challenge is for everyone to shift their mindset and see their work as worship, regardless of the circumstances. It’s a call to action for believers to embody their faith in all aspects of life, including the workplace. So, what would change in your work life if you saw it as an act of worship?
