Send us a text In this week’s message from The Prodigal Church series, Pastor Grant Caldwell dives into a rich and often overlooked truth in 1 Corinthians 7: your vocation is not a detour from your discipleship—it’s part of your calling. Whether you’re a teacher, artist, stay-at-home parent, accountant, or student, this passage affirms the sacredness of your everyday work. Paul reminds the Corinthian believers—and us—that while our faith changes everything, it doesn’t always mean changing jobs. It means changing how we view and do those jobs, living out our calling in view of the One who bought us with a price. This sermon explores:How work becomes an idol in our culture.Why your job, whatever it is, can be a sacred act of restoration.The biblical vision of vocation as calling.Practical encouragement for remaining faithfully where God has placed you. “Your vocation is a sacred act of God’s restoration of this world to a place of human flourishing.” Recommended Reading: Scripture Passage: 1 Corinthians 7 (ESV) Kingdom Calling by Amy Sherman Every Good Endeavor by Tim Keller HOME | PLAN YOUR VISIT | BLOG | DIGITAL BULLETIN
