HOW TO: WORK FOR THE LORD
“I’ve taken this as my assignment from the beginning. Whatever work we find ourselves doing in this life—I don’t care if it’s flipping burgers--we are called to do it well and to the glory of God. If you’re not doing your best at flipping burgers as you wait for something better, I doubt that you’ll ever find your dreams.” – David Green, Founder of Hobby Lobby

In this episode of Summit’s Christian Worldview Thinking podcast, Dr. Jeff Myers interviews the President of Ace Hardware, John Venhuizen. John is a committed Christian in an industry not known for touch feely employees.

In the hardware business, you can get pounded for exemplifying some aspects of your faith. John displays a thoughtfulness that we think you’ll admire and learn from as he and Dr. Myers discuss how Ace Hardware has become one of the largest retailers in the world.

We would love to hear what you’re doing to bring your faith into your workplace, school, and other areas of life. Share something on the Summit Alumni Facebook page today!
