With All Your Might: Exploring Biblical Teaching on Diligence, Hard Work, Sabbath, and Sloth

Published on by nickcady1 Comment

Have we over-emphasized the value of rest and Sabbath to the neglect of the biblical teaching on diligence and hard work?

On this episode of the Theology for the People Podcast, I am joined by Tyler Fuss and Mike Neglia to discuss what the Bible has to say about the importance of diligence, the danger of sluggardliness, and how to know the difference between hard work and over-work.

Tyler is a member of White Fields Community Church; he studied theology at Denver Seminary and is now a business owner in Colorado. Mike is the lead pastor of Calvary Cork in Cork, Ireland and a student at Western Seminary. Mike also leads Expositors Collective, an initiative which seeks to raise up the next generation of expository Bible teachers, and he hosts the Expositors Collective Podcast.

• Don’t Waste Your Life (Book)
