Reading: "Value-Making"
Value-making
• What’s a “thorn in your flesh”? (2 Cor. 12:7b)
• “Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. And He has said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.’” (2 Cor. 12:8-9a)
• “Love your neighbor as yourself” = Provide the solution to your own problem; then, make it available to your neighbor.
• Make value by forming/connecting what God has already made.
Is some work more “valuable” than others?
• Reflection
• Is white-collar work more valuable than blue-collar work?
• Are physical products more valuable than intellectual products?
• Is some work more “spiritually” valuable than other work?
• In God’s economy, contribution does not equate to remuneration.
• Money is simply the story we tell ourselves about the value of work; it might not be the right story.
