Do you want to find joy and purpose in all you do?
“Work and Rest God’s Way is a welcome contribution as Christians rediscover the doctrine of vocation in all of its practicality and spiritual richness.”
Dr. Gene Edward Veith—Provost at Patrick Henry College, director of the Cranach Institute, and author of God at Work
We spend an average of 90,000 hours, or about ten years, working. Hopefully, we find such a large investment of time and energy enjoyable and fulfilling, but for many people, work is the worst part of their day and of their life. In Work and Rest God’s Way, you will:
- Find the blessings God has for you in your labor
- Learn how to put off laziness and put on diligence (both physically and spiritually)
- Discover the quiet, restful life that’s pleasing in God’s sight
- Determine the balance between work and rest for your busy life
- Read together as a family to help your children value work and responsibility
Whether you’re a man or woman, young or old, this book will help you enjoy both work and rest as God intended. Families will also benefit from reading together. As a father of eight, Pastor Scott knows how hard it is to motivate children to work. He shares what has been successful for him and his wife, Katie
My Review:
Scott has always been a fantastic writer. I am always intrigued by the biblical connections he weaves throughout the pages of his books.
The lessons I am reminded of are always good ones that I need to be reminded of. This book continues that tradition and I am proud to say I learned a few good lessons from reading the pages of this book.
Sometimes we forget the importance of balance in our lives. Scott's newest book helped me remember that. I plan to add more details to this later but, I was certainly impressed yet again.
Thanks, Scott for always following God's direction in what you bring to us, as your readers.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
