Work That Will Last
2026-04-29
Jody Bruning explores 1 Corinthians 15:58, challenging students to find eternal purpose by being steadfast and immovable in their faith through the power of Christ’s resurrection.
In this Wednesday night message for students, Jody Bruning breaks down his personal "power verse" of 1 Corinthians 15:58 to explain what it means to perform work that truly lasts. Drawing from his personal life as a father and "facilitator," Jody emphasizes that Christian labor is not based on symbolic stories, but on the historical reality of Jesus’ death and resurrection. By establishing the historical context of Christ’s victory over death, he explains that our faith is not in vain and provides the foundation for a life of "inner stability" and unwavering conviction. Jody challenges the audience to move beyond the "minimum" and "abound" in the work of the Lord through acts of service, sharing the gospel, and building up the church. He highlights the fleeting nature of worldly accomplishments—noting how quickly sports stats and school honors are forgotten—and contrasts them with the eternal significance of laboring for God’s glory. The message serves as a powerful call for students to remain immovable in their calling, ensuring that when the "last trumpet" sounds, they have invested in a legacy that matters for eternity.
