Reviews"Christians need not choose between their spiritual and professional lives, promises Raynor, executive chairman of tech startup Threshold 360, in this well-reasoned guide to the meaning of godly work. While the evangelical church prizes ministry and mission work above all else, secular work has 'intrinsic eternal value,' Raynor argues, even when 'you're not leveraging it' to 'share the gospel with those you work with.' According to the author, one's job can 'bring God eternal pleasure,' as he 'delights in every detail' of Christians' lives; help one earn 'eternal rewards'; and reveal 'the kingdom of God in the present.'" --Publishers Weekly, " The Sacredness of Secular Work does an extraordinary job of being both personally relevant and, more importantly, biblically faithful. Jordan Raynor has done his homework and really gets it. I think the smile of God is on this book." --Randy Alcorn, New York Times bestselling author of Heaven, The Promise of the New Earth, and The Law of Rewards "Theologically rich and terrifically practical . . . this book is about to change your life." --Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker and pastor at National Community Church "If you want to be a good steward of Christ's gospel in the world's marketplace, you hold in your hands the best of guides!" --Joni Eareckson Tada, founder of Joni and Friends International Disability Center " The Sacredness of Secular Work is about to become one of the most highlighted books on your shelf." --Paul Sohn, director of the Center for Faith & Work at Redeemer Presbyterian Church and author of Quarter-Life Calling "This book is a paradigm-shifting, face-punching, grace-filled manifesto." --Luke LeFevre, founder of Holy Work "With wit and wisdom, Raynor will revolutionize the ways in which you see your place in the world." --Rachel Marie Kang, author of Let There Be Ar t and The Matter of Little Losses "God is not just at work in your evangelism. He is at work in your work. My friend Jordan Raynor shows you how." --Mike Kelsey, lead pastor at McLean Bible Church "If you want to feel fully alive in your current work, read The Sacredness of Secular Work now!" --Michael Arrieta, CEO of Garden City Equity "Jordan has done something of the impossible. I couldn't put it down!" --Andrew Nemr, TED fellow, international tap dance artist, educator, and speaker "Jordan Raynor skillfully brushes away the dense overgrowth of an all-too-prevalent impoverished theology of work. I highly recommend this book!" --Tom Nelson, lead pastor of Christ Community Church and author of Work Matters "This theologically sound and supremely practical book will free you from that guilt and convince you that your 'secular' work is very sacred indeed!" --Dr. Andreas Köstenberger, cofounder of Biblical Foundations and theologian in residence at Fellowship Raleigh "Jordan Raynor has written a book that allows every reader to see the impact of serving Christ right where they work." --Anne Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels, author, and speaker "Jordan teaches believers . . . that there's no difference between ministry and marketplace." --Christy Wright, author of Business Boutique and Take Back Your Time and former Ramsey Personality "Raynor argues, even when 'you're not leveraging it' to 'share the gospel with those you work with.'" --Publishers Weekly
