In this message from our IRL: Faith for Everyday Life series, At Work or School, we explored what it looks like to follow Jesus in the places where we spend so much of our time. Faith isn’t something we leave at the door—it shapes how we show up, how we work, and how we treat the people around us. Even in ordinary tasks and everyday interactions, our lives can reflect something deeper.
This sermon invited us to notice the ways we can drift—cutting corners, losing perspective, or slipping into cynicism—and to return to a better way. As we follow Jesus, we are called to live with integrity, faithfulness, and hope, not because everything is easy, but because we belong to Him. Our work and our classrooms become places where our faith is quietly and consistently lived out.
