Your Favorite Faith and Work Resources in 2024

This Christmas season, as you celebrate Jesus' birth and head into 2025, we at the Theology of Work Project pray that God's Spirit will empower you to discover the joy of connecting your work and God's word through the Bible.

Below, we've listed this year's most popular free resources for you. We invite you to browse through them and see if anything speaks to you in this moment. You may also find some resources you want to incorporate in 2025 to connect with God in your work!

These resources are free because of donations from people like you. The Theology of Work Project helps millions of Christians worldwide to connect the Bible and work, and to be a part of what Jesus is doing in the workplace. As you consider your end of year giving, we invite you to donate to support the Theology of Work Project.

Blessings to you during this Christmas season!

Theology of Work Bible Commentary Articles

• The Kingdom of God Shows Up at Work (Luke 1-5) - If it seems strange for God to announce his plan to save the world in the midst of two workplaces, it might seem even stranger that he introduces Jesus with a job description.
• God Creates the World (Genesis 1:1-2:3) - Genesis is incomparably significant for the theology of work because it tells the story of God’s work of creation, the first work of all and the prototype for all work that follows.
• God’s Presence in Our Struggles at Work (Psalm 23) - This passage is a reminder to see our work from God’s perspective—not primarily as an instrument for our gratification, but as our part in God’s mission in the world.
