A couple of weeks ago, I posted a comment about the Value of Work. To my surprise, it has become the most popular post on my blog to date, despite the fact — or perhaps because of the fact — that it contains no original content on my part. (Thanks for keeping me humble!)
Considering the popularity of that post, I thought you would enjoy this post from Guy Kawasaki’s blog about the Gift of Work. It links to a sermon by Nancy Ortberg. Disregard the comments in the blog about the video being taken down — apparently their site got overloaded, but it is back up now.
Let me know if you find this as meaningful as I did.
Yes, I found it very meaningful–perhaps even more so because I wasn’t prepared to be moved. At the time, I was cruising through tech and SEO blogs when I came across Guy’s post.
Thanks for stopping by and dropping a line. I can relate to your comment. I was fully prepared to learn something, but I wasn’t prepared for the emotional response.
I took a quick look at your blog and really liked what I saw. I’ll check back when I can spend a little more time.
Hi Steve, I found your post tracking back from Guy’s blog. I just wanted to invite you to dig around on our site for more insights on the value of work.

Thanks, Sam. I stopped by and poked around a bit. Really liked what I saw. I’m goind to add your site to my regular reading list.
Steve,
I’m very glad you enjoyed our site. We also have a forum to discuss issues of integrating Biblical values and business: http://insidework.goingon.com, which you are more than welcome to join and share your perspectives and experiences.
Sorry, that link had a comma in it. Here it is again:

Interestingly enough I wrote a book by the same title The Gift of Work. Dallas Willard was kind enough to write the foreword, which can be found at http://www.dwillard.org
