The Heavenly Good of Earthly Work by Darrell Cosden

The Heavenly Good of Earthly Work by Darrell Cosden

Does a person's day to day work have any ultimate value from the perspective of Eternity? Should our work be seen as a discipline through which we connect spiritually with God and others? Is ordinary work the primary way that people can participate in God's mission to make all things new? What is the heavenly good of earthly work?

In this book Darrell Cosden takes us on a spiritual and theological journey of discovery exploring these questions. Creatively, constructively, and sometimes provocatively, he shows us that the heavenly good of earthly work really makes the gospel good news for ordinary people by offering the possibility of a genuinely purpose-full Christian life.

Cosden, Darrell: - Darrell Cosden (PhD at St Andrews University) was Lecturer in Theology and Ethics at the International Christian College in Glasgow from 1999-2007, and now teaches at Judson University, Elgin IL. His creative and stretching approaches to teaching have inspired students to have a passion for theology, and to make the connections between that theology and people's day to day lives, as do his books The Heavenly Good of Earthly Work and A Theology of Work: Work and the New Creation both published by Paternoster.
