Think about it ... by the time you retire from work, you will have spent approximately 90,000 hours in the workplace. Also, at the same time you retire if you attended church regularly during the years, you will have spent approximately 5,000 hours in church. This means for every hour you spend at church you will spend 18 hours in your workplace. Yet for many Christians the workplace is a spiritual wasteland, a place to earn income ... but not a place where they experience Gods presence working through them while on the job. When God shows up at the work takes the reader from a definition of work through Gods eyes and words to practical ways and real life stories of God working through His people in the workplace.
