Description

Our vocation, as Christians, is to live a life worthy of our identity as God's children. This is not limited to the work we do, or the the context we are born into but is, instead, about who we are. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)Sermon start time: (Part 1) 32:54. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 1:03:24.Key quotation: “Your life’s work is not what you do. Your life’s work is who you are…You are not what you do. You are not where you happen to be. You are not what you possess. You are what you are in Christ Jesus.”
