Work is not a curse — it is a calling. This week, Evans reframes the nine-to-five as kingdom territory and challenges you to examine whether you are working for an audience of one.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Evans roots work in the creation mandate — God placed Adam in the garden 'to work it and take care of it' (Genesis 2:15) before sin entered the picture. How does knowing that work is part of God's original design (not the result of the Fall) change the way you approach your daily work?
2.Colossians 3:23 says, 'Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.' Evans calls men to what he describes as 'kingdom excellence' — doing their work with integrity and excellence as an act of worship. Does that describe your current posture toward your work? Where does it fall short?
3.Evans warns against two opposite failures: the workaholic who makes his career an idol, and the passive man who does not take his work seriously. Which is more your tendency? How does each represent a distortion of the kingdom calling to work?
