"Your daily work is neither curse nor savior. Rather, it is one of your greatest spiritual resources."

God wants to continue His creative work through your daily labor. Your work can be a means of grace to you, as well as a means through which you can save other people.

To experience your work in this way, you need to have a sense of vocation, of the calling of God, so that you know the holy significance of all that you do.

The Spiritual Formation Series is authored by faculty members of Asbury Theological Seminary. Spiritual Formation begins with the affirmation that Jesus is Lord! It is a lifestyle; not a program; a relationship rather than a system, a journey instead of a road map. Its goal is friendship with God.
