About the Book:
A weekday devotional to help Christians connect the gospel to their vocation and appreciate the eternal significance of their work--no matter what it is--from the entrepreneur, thought leader, and bestselling author of Redeeming Your Time.
The Word Before Work features 260 readings--one for every workday of the year--to help you see how your work connects to God's work in the world. This one-year devotional takes you on a journey through Scripture to explore God's perspective on the work he has called you to do.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, barista, stay-at-home parent, CEO, or coach, The Word Before Work affirms how God created you for work, why it matters, and the ways it holds significance both now and for eternity.
Review:
Easy, quick and still impactful. This is a great devotional to help those of us who are not in ministry and feel like we are not moving towards God's word know that is NOT how God sees it. If you feel as if the work you do carries less eternal impact than the work of a pastor or missionary, you are wrong. That's not how God sees it. Whatever it looks like day to day, your work is ministry and central to God's plans to restore fallen creation.
This was a great addition to my quiet time in the morning getting in the word of God and reminding myself that even though I am not in ministry my work is still important to the mission of God. Our work matters to us and it also matters to God.
Final Thoughts:
This would be a great gift for any person who wants to explore God’s perspective on the work He has called them to do. It is a great resource to getting into the word of God every morning with a biblical focus.
