On Culture - God Loveth Adverbs

Jacob and I talk about work, vocation, calling - and what we do all day long

Here is Nikola Jokic on work …

Now if we compare worke to worke, there is a difference betwixt washing of dishes, and preaching of the word of God: but as touching to please God none at all … The homeliest service that we do in an honest calling, though it be but to plow, or digge, if done in obedience, and conscience of God’s Commandment, is crowned with an ample reward ... God loveth adverbs; and cares not how good, but how well.

Joseph Hall - 1610 (ish)

In the workplace, the neighbors may be the customers, who are to be loved and served. The boss is to love and serve the employees, his neighbors who are under his authority. They, in tern, are to love and serve him. Teachers love and serve their students; artists love and serve their audiences … 

… God is hidden in vocation. It is also true that God is hidden in our neighbor.

Gene Edward Veith Jr. God at Work
