Work and Redemption

Work. For some, this word represents something arduous and enslaving. For others, it is an idol they serve with all their might. It doesn't matter if you are a workaholic or if you see your job as a nightmare, it's time to connect Sunday worship with your Monday work.

In this book, Tom Nelson traces God's purpose for work with theological depth and yet in a very practical way. He encourages us to make the most of our calling and to join God's work in the world. Here you will find a new perspective on work that will transform your work life and make your hours at work have an impact, not only for today but for eternity!

"Not many pastors challenge their congregations to think deeply about the work they do the other six days of the week. Most sermons and practical advice do not address the work that occupies much of our time and that we must do for God. I heard Tom Nelson teach on this topic at Trinity (TEDS) and I am happy to see his teachings published. This book fills a great need!" - D.A. Carson, author of The God Who Is There and co-founder of The Gospel Coalition

"In Work and Redemption, Tom Nelson examines how God uses our work (even the routine) to transform us and show us our gifts and our calling. This book will lead you to re-examine your understanding of both your work and your very identity." - Ravi Zacharias, author and international speaker

"This book presents a great message: The Gospel changes everything! It transforms us from the core of our being; it transforms both the motivations for our work and behavior and the impact our work has on God's creation. Thank you, Tom!" - Katherine Leary Alsdorf, founder of the Center for Faith & Work in NYC
