From Easter Sunday to Monday work: why it still matters
Playback speed
What does Easter have to do with your Monday at work?
In this opening episode, Tom Nelson explores the gap many of us feel between Sunday faith and weekday work. While Easter Sunday fills us with hope, Monday can quickly bring stress, frustration, and a sense that our work doesn’t really matter.
But what if the resurrection changes more than just our future - what if it transforms how we see our work today?
Drawing on 1 Corinthians 15:58, Tom unpacks how the reality of the risen Jesus speaks directly into the meaning, struggle, and purpose of our daily work - whether in an office, a home, or anywhere in between.
You’ll discover:
- Why your work is not “in vain,” even when it feels like it is
- How the resurrection reshapes your view of purpose and calling
- What it means to approach your work with hope, confidence, and faith
Because the good news of Easter Sunday is also good news for Easter Monday.
