Synopsis

God gave His people work to do in the Garden of Eden before sin entered the world. Work is not untouched by sin, but it is good, as God allows us to image Him and the way He works through our lives. Vocation and work are often a charged topic for women—inside or outside the home. Be a homeschool teacher or send your kids to public school? Wash clothes and dishes to the glory of God or work in the corporate world for the same? In this practical book on the theology of work, discover wisdom from women who represent all the realms of where a woman might find herself working and discover: how to think about calling, how to work from weakness, how to find joy in wise stewardship, no matter the field, how to join the mission of God in both motherhood and childlessness, how to image God in both secular and sacred work, how to manage and work with men, how to grow through conflict. All work is Kingdom work. As women, let's join together in celebrating the good gift of work.

Each chapter is......more

I have a passion for helping others to understand that their work has value and how to integrate their faith with their work. This is a book, which written for women, I also found to be helpful. The book, edited by Courtney Moore, includes contributions from eleven writers, two of whom I’ve read boo......more
