DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  1. In your current job (paid or not), do you believe you are using your talents to the best of their abilities? Why or why not? Does it make a difference?
  2. What thoughts come to mind when you think of working as imitating the fact that God works?
  3. Which of the five benefits-of-working do you currently see evident in your experience? Which one do you see the least? Why?
  4. For all you moms, do you believe raising kids is a quality job? (ps – You should!) Describe how the five benefits-of-working apply to raising kids, too.
