Abstract: The study anchored on the quantitative research paradigm presents a study sample size of (N=300) respondents were given questionnaires were utilised to gather data amongst 10 churches in Zimbabwe that utilise Christ in Song in their worship pattern. However, precaution was exercised, so that the core-mandate of the Church which is about reaching out with the message of Jesus Christ without compromise like the reformist of old, through worship, discipleship, evangelism, mission and social at will not be lost in the pursuit of academic excellence. The study reveals, through regression analysis 0.00 that it is significant. The Coefficient table results reveal that knowledge on work ethic value is significant .000, finance and stewardship value is not significant at .729, Age and diversity not significant at .265 and Social responsibility not significant at .151. The knowledge “Beta value “is 0.261 which means that the relationship between knowledge work ethic and dependent value expansion of the reformation theology is inverse. The other three independent variables Finance “Beta value†is .020, Age and diversity “Beta value†is .051 and Social responsibility “Beta value†is .051. The study concludes that the SZC of the Seventh day Adventist denomination should promote the entrepreneurial drive membership drive to knowledge on work ethic and in the future also consider the other insignificant variables for future studies. The study recommends future empirical studies to demystify and unpack in more detail the effects of sociocultural issues on work ethic and cultural value system of different conferences and unions in the global church of the SDA denomination general conference.
