About this listen

'An excellent read, especially for those who are looking at what exactly God had in mind when he called us to spend such a huge percentage of our lives in work.' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



HOW CAN I RECONCILE MY PROFESSIONAL LIFE WITH MY SPIRITUAL ASPIRATIONS?



In this clear presentation of the theology of work, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller invites us to live our calling to follow Christ in the workplace. From Keller's deep biblical knowledge and experience with both young professionals and senior leaders comes a series of practical advice to use the Gospel as a 'new compass' to navigate our professional lives.



Starting with the premise that work preceded the Fall and thus grants dignity to human nature, Keller demonstrates that we can serve others through our professional efforts. Better even, he shows how excellence, integrity, discipline, creativity, and passion can be considered acts of worship.



The perfect book for those who struggle to feel connected to God and find meaning in their work life.





'There are some books that need to be read at least once a year. This is one of them.' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



'An antidote to my workaholism and an answer to so many young people's unanswered questions about the fruitlessness of work today. Every page of this book slapped me across the face with truth. Dramatically changed my relationship with work.' Goodreads reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



'This is a must have book for anyone wrestling with reconciling their commitment and service to God and humanity, with a calling and commitment to business, professional or public service of any kind.' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐©2012 Timothy Keller

Informative and practical

This book is very well narrated with real-life stories to back up the author's view on the religious Christian attitude towards work. Work needs to be done with passion whilst serving the work. Whilst at work our focus should only be that of our job and & the tasks at hand; we should keep our personal lives outside the work place.

In this life we will never achieve the complete perfect picture that we want our work to be, no matter how hard we try and no matter how menial or how responsible a job maybe. It is like someone painting the perfect tree. They spent whatever time they had left to live and only managed to paint one perfect leaf. When this person died they found the perfect tree in the afterlife, the exact same one they wanted to paint during their time on Earth. This story the author refers to as "Leaf by Niggle," by J.R.R Tolkien. Meaning? The little achievements we manage in our jobs are considered extremely precious in God's eyes. God will give us our complete aspiration and desire of hearts of our hard efforts in the Kingdom of Heaven, that otherwise can never be achieved during our earthly lives.

This book is great for anyone who wants a better understanding of what drives them in work, how work should be viewed and the overall worklife of a believer. I will be going through this book again.
