Joy at Work
A sermon by Dennis Bakke,
brother of recent Luther Seminary guest speaker
Ray Bakke. |
| |
"Did you ever notice that most of the
work carried out by the biblical heroes was secular in nature? Noah
was a shipbuilder, a zookeeper, and a cruise line captain. Abraham, a
real estate developer. Esther wins a Miss America pageant so she can
enter a harem before she becomes queen. That's secular. My favorite
is Daniel. He went to Harvard, like me-the King's College-and became
president of Iraq. How's that for a Christian calling? Most of us
are called to secular workplaces just like these, not primarily as
evangelists or disciplers, but to serve the ordinary needs of society,
including our own needs."
