Garden City
by John Mark Comer
A theology of work and rest: work as participation in creation, calling as more than church jobs, and Sabbath as the rhythm that makes work sustainable. It is Comer's earliest major book, accessible and useful for Christians who feel their work does not matter.
Read it if…
you are a Christian who sees your work as secular and secondary.
Skip it if…
you want career strategy; it is theology of vocation.
Three things you will actually use
- All good work matters.
- Rest is part of the design, not a reward.
- Calling is found in gifts, needs and place.
Do this first
Write how your actual work serves people and participates in making the world better.
Our verdict
Accessible theology of work.
