Finding meaning and purpose in our daily work lives can be a challenging endeavor - but Comer had some really insightful, Biblically-backed answers for his readers. In God’s perfect future world, work and rest work harmoniously together to create something beautiful. And in the meantime, we can experience a little bit of heaven on Earth by working hard at work for the Lord 6 days of the week and resting on the 7th, the Sabbath.

I read this after a recommendation from our pastor, Charlie Boyd when he was talking about the importance of a Biblical view of work. It was a great message and prompted me to jump right into this book.
I don't necessarily agree with all the premises of the book, but they all did challenge my thinking and helped me to grow in this area.

I love his writing so much. He speaks to you like a person, and not in a preachy way. His message was amazing. Easy read as well.
