Human Resources

Welcome to the Human Resources Office of Oakwood University.
“Whatever you do, put your heart into it as if you were employed by the Lord Jesus Christ, not by a fellow human being. The Lord will reward all His people giving them their rightful wages when the proper time comes. So in reality you’re working for Him whether you realize it or not. Those who do wrong are not working for God. They, too, will get their wages, because God does not play favorites, but judges everyone by the same standards.” –Col. 3:23 25 (Clear Word)
