Here is a possible sermon outline “Work as Worship: The Christian’s Calling”
Key Quote: “In the kingdom of God, work is not just something we do to get by; it’s a sacred act of worship and service.” — Ronald Rolheiser
Text: 2 Thessalonians 3:6-12, John 5:17-20
Theme: Work, Responsibility, and Community
Summary: This sermon focuses on how our work reflects our faith in Christ. Paul warns against idleness, just as Jesus demonstrated a life of diligence and purpose. Jesus said, “My Father is always at His work to this very day, and I too am working” (John 5:17). Jesus viewed His work as directly connected to the Father’s will. Likewise, we are called to see our daily work as an act of worship and service, not merely a task or chore. We will explore how our diligence in work reflects Christ’s character and how laziness disrupts both community and spiritual growth.
Key Points:
Work as an Imitation of Jesus: How Jesus viewed His work as an extension of God’s will.
Avoiding Idleness: Like the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30), we are called to invest in the work God has given us.
Responsibility in Community: Jesus modeled serving others through His work, from feeding the hungry to healing the sick.
