Hands-On Faith for Families – Week of July 29, 2024

Working for God with all your heart is a key principle in living a life that honors Him, as emphasized in Colossians 3:23. By applying this principle to our daily work and chores, we can show appreciation for those who serve God through their labor and remember to do our own work for His glory.

Hands-On Faith for Families – Week of July 29, 2024 

Theme: Be God’s Light in the World 

Working for God 

Scripture: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart working for the Lord and not for men… (Colossians 3:23) 

Play: When you’re on the go, look for people who are working. Maybe you’ll spot a mail carrier, a construction worker, a gardener, a trash collector. Who can spot the most people working? 

Talk: Colossians 3:23-24 says that we should do our work as if we’re working for God. So whether we’re doing chores, homework or a paid job, we should work at it with all our hearts. Our pastors and children’s ministry leaders all serve God with their work, and they give us a good example to follow. How can we show our appreciation for their hard work? 

Pray: Pray that you would remember to do your work for God.
