Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In our secular lives, there is no more fundamental advice on the value of work, and how that leads to a good and successful life, than the word of God. In this book we draw on his word, expressed in the Christian Bible, an extension of the Jewish Tanakh. These ancient words pre-date anything you might hear today. They are the fount from which all good advice is derived. As the Book of Life, the Bible teaches the way of love and productive living. So, it is normal to observe God's words affect in our secular lives. For instance, think on advice to "find out what they want and sell it to them." This means that you forget yourself and serve the needs of another. This is not to say that one should sell something harmful, even if someone wants it. Rather, it is a recognition that the needs of our neighbor must come before our own. Thus the theme of this book's readings. The authors come from different age groups, traditions, and walks of life to offer their understanding of God's desire for our labor in his vineyard, our efforts to make his enterprise successful. Their diversity of thought has a common theme, service to God and neighbor as a reflection of our faith in him and our acceptance of his salvation. We thereby are engaged to our personal and the world's earthly and heavenly good. The world awaits, heaven awaits, God has shown the way. All of God's word is worthy of our knowing and understanding. My hope is that the readings offered by this book's authors will spur you to explore God's words further as you seek to know and follow them.
