Writing the Gospel in Pepperoni
Audio / Produced by The High CallingTranscript
Our friend Tony is a Christian who makes pizza. No, he doesn't spell out Jesus with the pepperoni. He says, "We can try too hard to show we're Christians. As if putting Jesus on our business cards is an endorsement from God."
So how does Tony take God to work? Through strong relationships with his staff. He listens to them. He prays for them. His relationship with Jesus is no secret. Believe me, every pizza Tony makes has Jesus' name on it.
This is Howard Butt, Jr., of Laity Lodge. If you are a Christian, everything you do has Jesus' name on it. It's a great responsibility, but one that should motivate us all … in the high calling of our daily work.
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. (Col. 3:17)
The demands, pressures and stress of work can put a huge strain on relationships with our coworkers. This 4-day plan from Theology of Work Project and Workmatters provides simple steps you can take to be more loving to your coworkers that will transform those relationships and increase both joy and productivity at work.
