A Man's Guide to Work: 12 Ways to Honor God on the Job
We were created to work, and we feel most happy, alive, and useful doing the work we were created to do. The act of productivity is its own reward.
Half a man's life is bound up in his work, but few ever learn a biblical framework for how to approach all their effort. Patrick Morley, author of The Man in the Mirror , knows that men everywhere want their lives to count and make a real difference. He has written a book for men in the workforce who want to integrate their faith and work. Whether a businessman, construction worker, salesman, lawyer, accountant, or plumber, men will be introduced to principles that provide a better understanding of themselves and how to be most effective and valuable in their chosen career.
A Man's Guide to Work helps train men for the marketplace. It helps them figure out how their relationship with God should influence their work and relationships with colleagues. It ultimately shows men how to experience the power of God in their work, to bring about social transformation through their work, and how to make their work life count for the glory of God!

Work is Ministry
Read this book with a couple of guys from church. Easy to read and understand. Lots of real life examples. Definitely helps one see “work” through a biblical mindset. I see myself reading this again in the future. I recommend this to all in the workplace.

Good book to help remind men of the fact that their work (no matter what kind) is a place God has given them to live out the Christian life. It's part of the purpose of their life.

Great book. Also used as a study book in my men's group. As you get all tied up in the day to day drag of any job, this helps keep everything that's important up front.
