Labor Day

Labor Day is a federal holiday set aside to honor the economic and social contributions of American workers. Christians see work as both a curse and a blessing: The mandate to toil the earth came with our expulsion from the Garden of Eden; but it also represents a high and noble calling of stewardship over God’s good creation.
