Unless the Lord

Sam DeSocio | 1/5/26 | Psalm 127:1-2

You're working harder than ever. You're checking off tasks. You're staying ahead of deadlines. So why do you feel like you're barely keeping your head above water? In this message, we explore an ancient song that diagnoses why work—even good, meaningful work—can leave us anxious, worn out, and wondering if any of it matters. More importantly, we discover the one shift that changes everything about how we approach our jobs, our goals, and our daily grind. Whether you're building a career, raising a family, or just trying to get through the week, this message offers a framework for working without the constant anxiety that comes with feeling like it all depends on you. You'll discover: Why good work can still leave you empty The three types of work everyone does (and why all of them matter) How to tell if you're "laboring in vain" The foundation that lets you work hard without burning out Two simple daily practices to reset your relationship with work
