Lutheran Witness: September 2009

Maybe it’s just our growing older, but each year, September seems to arrive more quickly than anticipated. Suddenly, our vacation is a receding memory, the kids are back in school, Labor Day is upon us, and we are left to wonder, “What happened to summer and all the plans I made? Where did the time go?” One item that occupies much of our time is work.

In our cover story this month, eight fellow Lutherans reflect on how their faith informs the work they do. As a complement to that story, we also offer an online “Classic Witness” reprise of Dr. Gene Veith’s July 2001 article, “God at Work.” As we celebrate Labor Day, both stories are fitting reminders that all of us honor our Creator by the work we do. Our work the past few weeks has been putting this issue together. We hope you enjoy it.
