The Church of England’s Synod recently declared that they “affirm the dignity and value of purposeful work, whether paid or unpaid, as a significant component of human flourishing.” 

In addition, the Synod recognized the value of the Bible by affirming, “to look at Biblical wisdom on work, employment and economy in its widest sense; and to consider a range of practical solutions from recent economic thinking in harmony with the Christian tradition’s emphasis on grace, justice and mercy.” 

This is an encouraging sign! 

Psalm 119:98 says, “Your commands are always with me and make me wiser than my enemies. I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes.” 

Let’s pray for our British brothers and sisters as they apply God’s Word to their workplaces.
