Work Well: Live Well - Rediscovering a Biblical View of Work
By David Westcott
Marshall Pickering. 251 pages. £8.99
ISBN 0 551 02971 4

For the evangelical Christian the daily experience of working life, whether in a factory, hospital, shop or office complex, generates a wide mixture of responsibilities, pressures, opportunities and dilemmas.

Given the scope of this challenge, and the fact that most Christians aged 18 to 60 spend much of their prime time in a workplace, it is remarkable that the working world seems to warrant a low priority in contemporary evangelical thinking, seldom featuring in our conversations and our prayer meetings. And yet the working lives of Christians constitute an unrivalled point of contact with the very world of people we are seeking to reach.
