  A thought provoking series of chapters written by New Zealanders discussing the significance of faith and work in a predominantly post Christian context. 

This book explores what ‘work’ is, what it is meant to be, and what it means to apply ethics and belief in the real world. It is designed to help the reader find integrity and fulfillment in what they do. 

It also explores ways in which the Christian Church might operate with more effectiveness and relevance in the 21st century. 

“This is a book for all Christian people, whatever they do day by day. We should be grateful to Don Mathieson for seeing the need for this book, to the eleven contributors for the thoughtful and informative and very helpful ways in which they have addressed that need” – Sir Michael Hardie Boys (former Governor General of NZ).
