Whistle While You Work—by Jacques Genis
March 13, 2023
Sermon summary:
Titus 2:9–10 How does God want me to conduct myself while I work, and why does it matter?
*God is a worker
- Work is meant to be a gift, and is intrinsic to what it means to be fully human. Later, it became toil, and a burden.
- Titus taught how workers were to conduct themselves:
Why does our conduct as employees matter? Verse 10 To make the teaching of God attractive. We are called to be image bearers/ ambassadorrs. Bring heaven to work, and see the difference Jesus made in your life.
Would it be a true representatives of God? Or is your life segmented (re you different at work, home, church etc).
Verse 9: Five foundational things—
*Be subject to your master in everything
*Try to please your master.
*Not talk back.
*Don't steal.
*Show you can be fully trusted.

Read Scripture through context, culture, and Christ. Its purpose is to shape us into Jesus’ likeness through love, obedience, and faithfulness.
Jesus built his life on Scripture through prayer, learning and obedience, showing us how to know God deeply and walk daily in his purpose by staying rooted daily.
Saying “no” to sin is saying “yes” to freedom. Through grace, discipline, and daily surrender, we follow Jesus—not perfectly, but faithfully.
