PRAISE FOR DAN DORIANI'S PREVIOUS BOOK ON WORK

“Dan is an academic who wears his considerable scholarship lightly as he writes a theologically rich but accessible book on the Christian and work.”

— Timothy Keller, Author, Every Good Endeavor

“[Doriani] doesn’t write only about the jobs we do, but the deeper yearnings we have to bring about reform in areas of passion or vocation. He aptly shows how the sometimes cutthroat practices of business in a capitalist context may not be fully compatible with a biblical view of love and justice. He calls for hard work, but also deliberate rest from that work. He calls for us to be generally satisfied in the stations to which God has called us, but also to be willing and perhaps even eager to take opportunities to bring reform. He shows how there is dignity in all legitimate work, but also shows how some forms of work genuinely matter more than others.”

— Tim Challies, book reviewer and co-founder of Cruciform Press

“Dan was teaching on the relationship between faith, work, and culture long before this topic became popular. With a great love for the gospel and the hope of Christ’s kingdom stirring in his heart, Dan has given us a wonderful introduction to a biblical theology of work.”

— Scotty Smith, Teacher in Residence, West End Community Church, Nashville

“We do a fair amount of translation on the theology of work, and this is most definitely the best title I have seen on the topic to date.”

— Jeff Stevenson, Founder and President, Proyecto Nehemías

“A concise yet comprehensive must-read for the thoughtful and committed Christian embedded in the ‘secular’ workplace. Dan Doriani has masterfully captured the nuances of the twenty-first century workaday world… Whether answering God’s calling on the shop floor, in the corporate office, or in the home, the reader will find practical and theologically sound answers here.”

— Franz. J. Wippold II, Emeritus Professor of Radiology, Washington University, St. Louis.
