6 | Work, Rest, and the Butcher Block

Why do we work?

Jake was faced with this question as he transitioned into college and the workforce. With the help of mentors and good books (and a brief stint as a grocery store butcher) he learned that real freedom in work came through exploring his "why" instead of his "what". He talks about the importance of "showing up" everyday and being consistent in your work and vision. We discuss how rest must be intentional in order for us to not be running on empty. 

 

Books we talked about:

- "Every Good Endeavor" by Tim Keller

- "Garden City: Work, Rest, and the Art of Being Human" by John Mark Comer

- "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry" by John Mark Comer
