TAKE THE HEIGH-HO-HUM-DRUM OUT OF WORK

Do you ever feel like one of Snow White's Seven Dwarves, marching off day after day to the endless, meaningless, unfulfilling drudgery of that 4-letter word "WORK?"

HARD WORK, HARD WORK! HARD WORK, WORK!  

HIM's HONOLULU 2015 preconference session on WORK can help you gain perspective!
HONOLULU 2015, March 19, 2015 | 9 am - 4 pm | Hawaii Convention Center

Led by businessman Andy Mills, co-chair of the Theology of Work project and senior fellow at The King's College in New York City, this interactive session will take you out of the salt mines to develop a rich Kingdom minded understanding that redeems your WORK.

Session 1 - The Problem of Work
70% of people working are not engaged by the work they do and Christians are no exception. What are the problems we have with work? What are the specific problems that Christians have? Why do so many of us feel like second class citizens in the Christian world? This first session will look at these issues and help us understand the issues surrounding the workplace.

Session 2 - God's Vision for Work
Does God have a specific purpose for work? Does God have a vision for work? Does God have roles for each of us to play? Is work a calling? Unless we understand God's vision for work, how can we fully engage in the workplace in a way that is consistent with His will for our lives? This session will look at what Scriptures has to say about God's basic vision for work so that we can be properly oriented in the marketplace.

Session 3 - How Should We Work?
Once we understand God's vision for work and our role in it, are there specific ways that God wants us to work? How does God evaluate our performance? How might Christians think differently about working with others? This session will highlight several Scriptural themes that will help you think about "how" we should work.

Session 4 - The Impact Of Work
Finally we will take time to look at the Impact of Work? How does work impact human flourishing? What benefits does it bring? How can work help us love our neighbor? Is work a platform for evangelism? How do we think about wealth and influence that work might bring?
Each session will comprise a prepared presentation and an expansive Q&A Session that will allow for plentiful interaction.

Help HIM get over the summer hump


Dear friends,

Summer is a challenging time for HIM. 

Donations are always down and income from registration fees are practically nonexistent. It’s a dry season, and we often feel like camels making their way across the endless desert to the oasis that is fall.

That’s why we need your help.

Help us get over the hump with a short, three-month commitment this summer. $50, $30 or even $15 a month during these summer months would bless us tremendously. Or give and go with a “hump-sum” summer gift of $25, $50 or $100 if it’s easier for you.

All we are praying for is Gideon’s 300 (see Judges 7). We are looking for just 300 new donors to give monthly for the next 3 months. We believe in and are looking expectantly for the 300 whom God calls. We invite you to be one of them.

Please be a summer time friend and support HIM today. We need your help. Any registration fees we receive, we put aside to cover the cost of that particular conference or seminar. The donations we need now are for paying the HIM staff, electricity bills, our monthly rent – and for keeping HIM alive until the next conference.

We are grateful for your ministry to and with us.

In Him, Jesus Christ,
Dan and Pam Chun
