Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Serving Up God was born out of a revelation that God was indeed doing powerful ministry right in the middle of the everyday hustle and bustle of my humble workplace. The realization that others struggled to accept the validity of Gods work in their secular work lives proved the necessity of a story-style documentation of that work. The simple concept of Gods desire to use every part of our livesnot just on Sundaysis laid out in a series of compelling stories and personal moments. Each relatable story reinforces this revolutionary yet Biblical idea that we are called to do Gods work in every place. What if we stop compartmentalizing our lives into secular and spiritual and just let God show up wherever he chose? What if Jesuss command to go into the world and preach the gospel includes the place we spend most of our week? Its a pretty safe bet that God intends us to live out the teachings of the New Testament in our workplaces and neighborhoods.

It had been a long day for Joni. After hours of practice on the court, she couldn’t wait to get home and relax. She took a few pictures with fans, stepped into the car with her trainer, Mrs. Wiggins and splayed across her seat. “Wow, I thought that day would never end,” Joni said. Mrs. Wiggins gave her the look of a stern schoolteacher. “I don’t know how to tell you this, my dear, but days of extra practice are very important. How do you think Anna Sanchez stays on top?” Rolling her eyes, Joni said, “Yes, I know, Mrs. Wiggins. Practice, practice, practice.” “That’s right. Where are you ranked among the female tennis players in the world, my dear?” “Second,” Joni groaned. “And how will you get to number one?” “Practice, practice, practice.” Mrs. Wiggins smiled. Joni did too, but only one of their smiles was sincere. It was times likes these that she regretted choosing the life of a tennis pro. But then again, it often didn’t feel like a choice at all. Ever since she was old enough to hold a racket, she was put out there on the court while her proud parents beamed...
