God is not only concerned about how we are treated by others; He is also concerned about how we treat other people. The work place is a great mission field and how we work and respond to others is a powerful means of witnessing. So, in the work place, what kind of worker or boss are you?
In Colossians 3:22-4:1 Paul continues his teaching on relationships by calling our attention to the Boss - Worker relationship. These relationships have the ability to be filled with manipulation and deceit, but we have learned we are to live differently as believers. We live unto Christ, submitted to His principals.
So Paul challenges the Christian worker to give his best service and to do it as unto God and not the boss. And to the believer in authority, Paul reminds him to treat those under him with justice and fairness, remembering that God is in authority over him.
Join us this Sunday as we talk about Grace at Work.
