"Reconnecting theological knowledge to what people actually do with
most of their waking hours is the essential challenge of our time
for academic theology, for the local church, and for Christians in
their workplaces. This volume contributes on all three fronts. . .
. Timely and informative . . . scholarly and rigorous."
--Greg Forster, director, Oikonomia Network
"Every generation of Christians needs to reclaim an understanding
of vocation for all the people of God, not merely those entering
the Christian professions. . . . These essays offer rich, mature
resources for marketplace workers, pastors, and seminary teachers,
who together form the necessary matrix of ministry in this task of
vocation-reclamation."
