A Good Return does not provide maxims to get you through the day. Instead, it is a book that encourages Christians to view their workspace as an avenue of worship.
The world of work is expanding. New technologies, industries and means of communication, have presided in the transition of the workplace into a fast, digital and busier–than–ever era.
With increasing demands and declining rewards, in whichever sector you care to name, work can become all–consuming, overwhelming,
burdensome, dissatisfying, and more. It becomes easy to complain, drag one’s feet while getting out of the door, and face daily tasks with an apathetic attitude.
When battling external pressures and internal conflicts, the workplace is a challenging environment. We need equipped to tackle so many aspects of working life:
Salaries
Wealth
Time management
Motivation
Rest and Sabbath
The secular sacred divide
Eternal rewards
Our digital technological era
Gospel support
How should the Christian navigate these areas? John C. Lennox has crafted a book with thoughtful, biblical and evangelical deliberation on our behaviour in, and towards, our work. With his trademark clarity, faithfulness and wisdom, Lennox invites us into a wider discussion on Christian approaches to lots of areas of working life.
“It will provide great help, encouragement and joyful inspiration to all who are seeking to apply the Lordship of Christ in all these vital areas of life” – Lindsay Brown (Former General Secretary of IFES and International Director, Lausanne Movement)
