Garden City - Work, Rest, and the Art of Being Human.

Rediscover your purpose and passion for life as bestselling author John Mark Comer guides you through the Bible's vision for work, rest, and living fully human.
We've all heard it said: It's who you are that matters, not what you do. Really? Where do the Scriptures teach that? After all, from the very first pages of the Bible, human beings were made to rule over and care for the earth. By calling and by commission, humanity was created to do good work.
In Garden City, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer will help you discover that, ultimately, what you do matters just as much as who you are. You will explore answers to questions like,

• Does God care where I work?
• Does he have a clear direction for me?
• How can I create a rhythm for work and a practice of rest?

This book isn't about how to get ahead in your career or spruce up your resume--it's about working, resting, and living a full existence. It's about spiritual life invading all of life.
