A Bible Study About Purpose

Purpose: Eternal Significance in Everyday Work, from Yarrow by Precept

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”

You were asked that question from as early as you can remember.

In elementary school, you drew pictures of yourself as a teacher, singer, doctor, firefighter, or astronaut, dreaming about what you might become. In high school, aptitude tests attempted to answer the question for you.

But the pressure intensified as you entered college or the workforce. And then, before you knew it, you’d chosen a major, forged a career path, and begun your journey—still trying to figure it all out along the way.

And underneath it all, you continue to ask yourself a million more questions about purpose and the meaning of life...

What do I want to do with my life? Does what I do matter? What is God’s will for me to do? Does God care about what career I choose?

Understanding the purpose of life is essential. In fact, “What is life’s purpose according to the Bible?” is one of the most important questions you can ever ask. And the work you do (whether it’s paid or not) is a significant part of that purpose for your life.

Discover the significance of your work and how it relates to the definition of life in Purpose: Eternal Significance in Everyday Work, a Bible study about purpose and part of our Faithful Living study series.*

You’ll explore the Bible to uncover “walking in your purpose” scriptures that illuminate how to live faithfully through your responsibilities and livelihoods. We’ll address questions such as:

  • “What is your purpose?”
  • “What makes life have meaning?”
  • “How to find purpose in life?”

And we’ll discover the answers in God’s Word together.

*This is part two of our Faithful Living study series. It is not required that you have done part one in order to do this study, but you can check it out here.

  • What do you do in a Yarrow Bible Study?

    Yarrow by Precept helps guide you through the Bible so you can know what it says—and what it means for your actual life.

    God gave you the Bible with big-picture truths about humanity, life, and Himself. The answers you seek aren’t found in step-by-step instructions, but in knowing God through Scripture. As your relationship with Him grows, so does your ability to see the world and your life through His eyes.

    With Yarrow, you’ll find a hands-on approach to Bible study called inductive Bible study. And you’ll discover how to slow down and engage with both the familiar and confusing parts of Scripture in a new way. To help you explore Scripture for yourself, you'll be guided through the Precept Bible Study Method of observation, interpretation, and application.

  • How long can you expect to spend with these studies?

    You have the flexibility to go as quickly or as slowly as you want to with Yarrow's chapter-based study format. A typical study may take 4-6 weeks.

  • What Yarrow study should I start with?

    You can start anywhere! But one good place to start would be Known—the first Yarrow study and part one of our series on what the Bible says about identity. Keep up with new titles as we release them by clicking here to subscribe.

  • Is this a group or individual study?

    You’re able to use Yarrow studies either individually or in a group format.
