Through an exponentially bigger view of the gospel and fascinating scriptural insight, Raynor reveals twelve propositions for why work has intrinsic and eternal value, and offers- compelling reasons why a low regard of work hurts our understanding of God and his Kingdom vital truths that God's view of work tells us about heaven inspiring ways your work can reveal God's kingdom on earth now accessible methods to make disciples in non-missional jobs surprising strategies to ensure your work has an eternal impact With this biblically redemptive perspective, readers will feel free to pursue their passions and skills and-perhaps for the first time-experience our Creator's delight in the work of their hands.
