Working Together: The Value of Relationships in Our Labor

Williams Baptist University Season 1 Episode 11

In this episode of Life Work, hosts  Dr. Stan Norman and Dr. Rhyne Putman dive into the profound connection between faith, vocation, and relationships. They discuss how work is not just a solitary endeavor but a relational expression rooted in our design as image-bearers of God. Drawing from Genesis 2 and the relational nature of the Trinity, they explore why working in community enhances productivity, fosters deeper connections, and reflects God’s intention for humanity.

The conversation also touches on the challenges of remote work, the dynamics of family life in shaping work ethics, and how Jesus’ invitation to “take His yoke” reveals the beauty of relational labor. Whether you’re navigating tensions in your workplace, balancing family and career, or seeking purpose in your work, this episode offers encouragement and practical insights to help you thrive.
