If you are going to have joy and meaning in your work,

it's got to be connected to something bigger.

Dr. Tony Evans says when we're working for more than just a paycheck,

it shows.

The best workers in any organization ought to be the Christians

because they're working for a higher standard.

This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans,

author, speaker, senior pastor of Oaklev Bible Fellowship

in Dallas, Texas, and president of the Urban Alternative.

Everybody hopes to find their dream job.

But Dr. Evans says if yours is more like a nightmare, there's hope.

Today, he explains how turning your career over to Christ

can give you a new vision for your workplace.

Let's join him.

The purpose of your career, which is more than a job,

is to closely align itself to your calling,

so that it either is your calling or supports your calling

because it supplements your calling.

Now, of course, to talk about career is to talk about work.

And you can't talk about work without talking about God

because God is the first being in history who ever worked.

And he is the one who established work.
