Listen "12: When Work Feels Empty"
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes work feels pointless. We get stuck in the comparison/competition trap, never achieving enough to be content. We get enslaved to our work, sacrificing everything else that matters. We end up in jobs that are dehumanizing, treating us more like machines than human beings. It's all so empty. What does Jesus invite us into when work is like that?
