 Best Buy rethinks the time clock
-
Money
The giant electronics retailer believes employee loyalty improves when the focus is on results instead of just working a shift. Think about spiritual maturity and how the Holy Spirit works in our hearts and lives. Does it happen when we "clock in" to church?
- Allowing their operations to be results-oriented has "forced managers and employees to be really clear about what needs to be accomplished." What does the Holy Spirit seek to accomplish in the hearts and lives of believers?
- See John 3: 3-8. How do you think the Holy Spirit works?
- Why should believers be connected to a church? Is sitting in the pew each Sunday important? Why or why not?
- How do you think taking part in worship and other church activities encourages the work of the Holy Spirit in your life?
- See Philippians 2: 12-13 and James 4: 8a. How does a believer work out his salvation and draw near to God? When does this activity need to take place?
- See Galatians 5: 22. How do you know the Holy Spirit is working in your life? What are the results of His work?

How do you define success for your child? “Graduates from a prestigious college.” “Nabs a high-paying job.” “Settles down with a nice family.” Sounds good. But what if you got it all wrong?
What about greatness? Where does it fit in? “If you aim your children at anything less than greatness, you’ll set them up to miss the whole point of their lives,” says author Tim Kimmel. In Raising Kids for True Greatness, Kimmel turns the definition of success on its head and guides you in preparing your child for a life that will easily eclipse the goals of those who are merely successful.
