Christians must understand that it was always God’s intent for us to promote human flourishing through our work. This means teaching a new narrative around the purpose of work, wealth creation, and their God-ordained roles in bringing flourishing to God’s creation. Barnes favors an approach that integrates our faith and our work, rejecting the compartmentalization of our current culture, which dictates that work is only a means to an end.
Yes this same principle applies to the arts and culture as well.
