The Gospel at Work How Working for King Jesus Gives Purpose and Meaning to Our Jobs

Most Christians fall into one of two main problems when it comes to work: Either they are idle in their work, or they have made an idol of it. According to the authors, both of these mindsets-idleness in work and idolatry of work-are deadly misunderstandings of how God intends for people to think about their employment.In The Gospel at Work, Sebastian Traeger and Greg Gilbert answer some of the tough questions that Christians in the workplace often ask, like:What factors should matter most in choosing a job?How should I think about how to treat my boss, my co-workers, and my employees?Is full-time Christian work more valuable than my job?Is it ok to be motivated by money?How do you prioritize-or balance-work, family and church responsibilities?Solidly grounded in the gospel, The Gospel at Work confronts both idleness at work and the idolatry of work with a challenge of its own; a call for Christians to remember that whom they work for is infinitely more important than what they do.
