Loving Your Job

People want to feel good about their job, no matter what they do. They want their job to support their spiritual values and to have a meaning that extends beyond them. They don’t want a job that forces them to be one person at work and one person at home–and they do want a job that leaves time for that home. This upbeat title enables readers to find “a little bit of calling” in everything they do, regardless of their present position. The book helps create a spirituality of work that leads to more creativity and satisfaction and to a better balance between one’s home life and work life. Drawing from a wide range of theologians, philosophers, and social commentators, the book shows step-by-step how to look at work both more realistically and more positively. Loving Your Job, Finding Your Passion provides concrete help for everyone from the first-time employee, to the burned-out veteran, to the unemployed. Its methods are easily adaptable for different jobs, different situations, different lifestyles, and different personalities. A perfect choice for anyone who works or wants to work, the book is also a great selection for adult ed classes, business students, company retreats or in-house motivational seminars, vocational counselors, pastoral counselors, and anyone concerned with business ethics.
