Life can feel like a constant grind—waking up, going to work, chasing success, and trying to measure up. Society tells us that our worth is based on what we do, how much we make, and how successful we appear. But what if that’s not the truth? What if our identity isn’t in our work, but in Christ?

Today’s message, “Beyond the Grind”, challenges us to shift our mindset from a work-driven identity to a faith-driven purpose. We’ll discover how to break free from the pressure of performance and find lasting fulfillment in God’s design for our lives.

Let’s be honest—how many of us see work as just something we "have to do"? For some, it’s a burden. For others, it’s an obsession. But what if work was actually designed by God? What if your job—whether in an office, at home, or in the community—was meant to be an extension of your worship?

In today’s episode, "Created to Work," we’ll explore how God’s design for work started before the fall, before stress, and before struggle. We’ll dive into Genesis 1:1–28 and Colossians 3:17–25 to uncover why work is part of our purpose and how we can see our daily labor as an opportunity to glorify God.

So whether you’re commuting, taking a break, or winding down after a long day, lean in—because this message might just change how you see your 9 to 5.
