Overview and Discussion Questions (by chapter-see below)
Overview:
Doug Sherman and William Hendricks realized in the late 1980s that many Christians in the workplace struggled with what relevance their faith had to their day to day activities at work. They also recognized that many had flawed views about their work and their faith. It was with these people in mind that Your Work Matters To God was written. This three part book does an excellent job of tackling:
1.How Christians View Work;
2.How God Views Work and finally,
3.What Difference Does It Make?
“Your Work Matters To God” is as relevant today as it was when it was written. Many still do not believe that God really cares about their work, and that it just is a means to a paycheck. Other people believe that to be valuable in God’s eyes requires leaving the business world for full-time ministry.
This book is invaluable in establishing a firm theological foundation for people in the workplace. It breathes life into those who dread going to work each day and hope for those who wonder if it’s all worth it.
