How Can I serve God at Work?

Order this book

In a society shaped by secular and often distorted views of work , Christians need to return to the foundational biblical truths that help us think clearly, with integrity and hope, about our daily labor. In this book, Ray Pennings offers a clear, biblical, and practical guide on how believers can serve God even in the midst of their everyday work.

This short but meaningful book addresses an essential question: How can our ordinary work become extraordinary service in the eyes of God? While many people see work merely as an economic obligation or a professional career, Pennings presents a biblical view of vocation that goes beyond material concerns and recovers the spiritual purpose behind every task performed by a Christian.

Through ten biblical principles , the author helps readers:

• Understand the value of work from a divine perspective.
• Distinguish between a secular and a Christian view of vocation.
• Cultivate practical and consistent piety in the workplace.
• Recognize that all work done in faith can be a form of worship and service to God.

Pennings also reflects on how this transformative vision impacts our attitude, ethics, and witness in the workplace—especially in a North American cultural context dominated by individualistic, materialistic values that are far removed from the Word of God.

Written with simplicity yet theological depth, this book is ideal for both personal study and group discussion. It is a valuable tool for those seeking to live out their faith with coherence in a complex and challenging work environment.

Ultimately, How Can I serve God at Work? not only seeks to change the way we view our jobs, but also reminds us that everything we do can be done for the glory of God .
