A Biblically-based and compelling argument supporting the integration of faith and work into a noble calling to serve God in the marketplace.  -- Steve Reinemund, PepsiCo retired Chairman/CEO, Dean of Business, Wake Forest Univ. Schools of Business    
 
Our vocation:  Curse or obsession?  In [his book], Hugh Whelchel begins with first principles and lays out the Biblical case that our work is neither a necessary evil nor the center of our self-worth. Rather, it is God's holy calling through which we use our God given talents for the furtherance of His ultimate plan - the Kingdom of God.  A compelling read, highly recommended.  -- Hon. John Scott Redd, Vice Admiral, U.S. Navy (Ret.), first Director of the U. S. National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC)
 
Hugh Whelchel has done an exquisite job of calling Christians to their role in the kingdom of God. He is straightforward in his approach and direct in stating his own opinion. At the same time he weaves the thoughts of many, many others from Calvin to Keller into the development of this concise book that begins with foundation of Biblical theology and moves all the way to our individual and collective callings as believers in the Almighty God of this universe. It is a must read, wonderful for profound discussions.  -- Dr. Robert C. Varney, VP, Leader-led Movements for Global Cities at Campus Crusade for Christ International
 
From the time of Adam and Eve, when they were gardeners ... work is Biblical. Often there's a disconnect in integrating work with our mission and purpose. Hugh's book tackles that issue head on-well worth your time!  -- J.C. Watts, Former Congressman, author, businessman, preacher, speaker
 
No one has thought more deeply or written more clearly than Hugh Whelchel about the Biblical doctrine of work. In God's economy, he explains ...the Christian works, not merely to survive, but to thrive and to flourish for the glory of God, the advancement of the Kingdom, the renewal of the culture, and the benefit of all humankind. The believer's vocational calling is a celebration of the Creator and an act of worship.   -- Daniel L. Dreisbach, Prof. of Justice, Law and Society, American Univ.
 
Monday morning would have a better reputation if we took to heart Hugh Whelchel's teaching about a Biblical doctrine of work. The work-week would have a deeper sense of purpose, marked by peace and joy rather than anxiety and tension: peace produced from a clearer understanding of the integration of faith and work, and joy from the satisfaction of pursuing our callings to the glory of God and for the shalom of the city in which he's placed us.  -- Jennifer A. Marshall, The Heritage Foundation
