Abstract
In the author’s experience sermons today rarely offer Christians any aching or guidance about ordinary daily work, which in fact takes p the greater part of their time, energies and thinking. It was not ways so. Luther, Calvin and the Puritan preachers spoke and wrote about the Christian's work regularly, comprehensively and perceptively. In these three articles their main emphases are summarised. Ordinary work is in fact the service of God; in some way it must serve one’s neighbour; it is to be regarded as one’s ‘calling’, and all jobs are of equal value in God’s sight; each person’s skills are their ‘spiritual gifts’; and work must be done with honesty and fairness to others.
