SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Psalms 127:1-2 (ESV)
KEY VERSE: Psalms 127:1 (ESV) Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.
BOTTOM LINE: Work is vanity unless God is the Builder.
PROMO DESCRIPTION:
We've all felt it; working so hard that you fall into bed each night, and somehow it still feels like it's not enough. Scripture has a word for that feeling: vanity, labour that leaves us empty no matter how early we rise or how late we stay up.
This week in our IDOLS series, we're looking at the idol of work. Scripture tells us that unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain. (Ps. 127:1)
When our job becomes the source of our identity, our security, and our belonging, we've quietly asked it to be a god instead of a gift. Join us as we learn what it looks like to work hard without asking our work to save us.
