Synopsis

Many today are experiencing social isolation, deep anxieties about the future, and various difficulties in the workplace. For too many of us, work seems tedious, painful, or meaningless. And we don't know what to do about it.

Working from the Inside Out pulls back the veil on the deep emotional and vocational challenges faced by the majority of workers and shows how work can become a way to love God, serve our neighbors, and demonstrate the gospel to the world. Bringing together emotional, relational, vocational, intellectual, and civic health through the seamless thread of vocation, Jeff Haanen offers a way out of the disintegration of our culture and toward a reintegrated life lived in response to God's voice.

The inner work of transformation leads to external transformation of our relationships and our work, and that good work influences our cities and the culture around us. Living from the inside out can change our work and heal our world.

Goodreads review by Cameron on March 25, 2024

This book is beautiful. It paints a beautiful picture of what it can look like to follow Jesus not only in the workplace but in life in general. However, not only does it paint a beautiful picture, but it gives the readers the tools to allow God to shape and form us (corporate “us”) into that beauti......more
