Read the DVD session descriptions below:
DVD Session One: Created to Work
Explore the Genesis account of creation, in which God paints the picture of a
joyful workplace as embodied in the Garden. This session introduces you to our
two callings in life: stewarding resources to meet the world’s needs and
the Great Commission.
DVD Session Two: The Tommy Brooks Story
Join Tommy Brooks as he shares his powerful story of the way in which AES’s
values-based philosophy dramatically changed his life. His story is a testament
to the transforming power of values.
DVD Session Three: The Gifted Worker
This session explores the concept that we are all uniquely designed by God and
fitted for a particular task. It is in applying your gifts to your specific task
that you experience pure joy at work.
DVD Session Four: Decision Making
You’ll examine qualities that create a healthy corporate culture, paying
close attention to the decision-making process. Dennis Bakke takes you through
the Joy at Work decision-making approach, in which bosses give decision-making
responsibility to others.
DVD Session Five: The Servant Leader
Inspired by the perfect servant leader, Jesus Christ, this session explores the
concepts of humility and restraining power as spiritual acts. See how one church
brought these principles to life—and found pure joy.
DVD Session Six: Freedom to Fail
As sinners, we know we are going to fail. Failure is just another consequence
of the Fall. This session investigates the nature of failure—and the hope
of greater success and joy that follows when we allow ourselves the freedom to
fail.
DVD Session Seven: Outside the Walls
This session takes a look at the balance among work, family, and community. Until
now, we’ve assessed the responsibility of stewarding resources within an
organization. Here we will broaden that scope as it extends into the community.
DVD Session Eight: The Innotec Story
Step inside the walls of the Innotec Group, a manufacturer from Zeeland, Michigan,
that designs, engineers, and builds industrial parts. It is the story of an organization
whose people understand God’s purpose for their lives. This understanding
creates a culture of trust where people are given decision-making power, ultimately
allowing them to find joy in their work.
DVD Session Nine: The Marketplace-Friendly Church
Watch Session 9
The Marketplace-Friendly Church explores the reality behind Colossians 3:17: “Whatever
you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving
thanks to God the Father through Him.” This session calls us to broaden
our understanding of ministry, as God calls us into the marketplace, politics,
law, economics, and so on.
DVD Session Ten: The Master’s Joy
One of the fruits of the spirit is joy—which means God designed us to experience
joy. The reward of serving others is tremendous and shouldn’t be missed.
Come, enter into the Master’s joy.
