TheIntersectionFaith, Work,and LifeThought-provoking, yet accessible, The Intersection delves into the profound topic ofwork and its significance in the lives of Christians. Through a collection of insightfulessays, it not only aims to bridge the gap between faith and work, challenging readersto reconsider their understanding of a balanced life and embrace a more integratedapproach; it invites readers to ask themselves the question, What role did God placeme here to play in his story? This is a joyful gem of a book that invites every person to contemplate how they show upwith God for their family, work, and earthkeeping, and then to live it out Samuel E. ChiangDeputy Secretary General of the World Evangelical AllianceFor decades now, I have witnessed the near non-existence of the practical intersection betweenfaith and work. The sacred-secular divide is pervasive, rendering work forever inferior. Theresult is confusion and ineffectiveness as we try to straddle these two disconnected worlds. The call to return to God s design is desperately needed, a message that can transformcommunities, cities, and nations. The book you hold in your hands is compact, memorable,and rich in wisdom. Properly applied, it can unlock a wonderful new freedom to be allGod intended for you personally and for your work. John D. BeckettChairman, The Beckett CompaniesSometimes advancing the kingdom of God is relegated to religious activities on Sundays. Notso in this book. Bob Varney and Hugh Brandt show us in very practical and inspirationalways how people in every walk of life can advance God s good purposes every day of theweek. This is because God cares for what you do on Monday through Saturday as well. IfJesus is not Lord of all, he is not Lord at all. I encourage you to read this brief masterpiecewith the intent of becoming a tsaddiq who will daily live a lifestyle of integrated kingdomservice in his/her community.
