“On call in culture”…..

Last updated on: March 20, 2014 at 8:42 pm   By Acton Institute

A family affair: A post from a Kern pastor

Last updated on: March 16, 2014 at 8:37 pm   By Made to Flourish

It is a wonder that we bemoan the attitude of many adults toward work, yet neglect to instill a sense of the virtue of work when they are younger. It’s as though we believe human beings could somehow grow up carefree, without responsibility or an encouragement to pursue any type of labor, and then, when they hit adulthood, flip a switch that would leave them fulfilled in the work they must do. Read more

Working and keeping in God’s “Oikos”

Last updated on: March 14, 2014 at 10:05 pm   By Oikonomia Network

Work alone cannot describe economic activity in the Old Testament. Instead, “to work” and “to keep” must be considered together. Adam failed to be God’s farmer, but the founding of Israel’s priesthood restored the ability to show the world how to work and keep. Read more
