The workplace is so often the primary context in which we engage our faith and, as such, it is crucial that Christians are missional in their work, examining the areas of brokenness they can push against-seeking to bring mercy and justice-in their respective fields. If every Christian considered how they can better love their neighbors on the margins, steward their power and be a restorative presence in their workplace, it would be nothing less than transformational. This course shows us how to do just that. It is an important aid to Christian discipleship and will help unleash congregants more fully to love people, places and systems to life. -TIMOTHY KELLER, chairman and cofounder, Redeemer City to City; author, Every Good Endeavor: Connecting Your Work to God's Work
The Missional Disciple is an immensely helpful resource for the church. It will help Christians connect Sunday morning to the rest of the week. It will show how the gospel gives rise to both mercy and justice. This workbook is holistic in its understanding of Jesus' work in our lives, drawing from the insights of communities of color and presenting material in creative, engaging and community formative ways. I encourage you to read this book with a small group of friends and expect to be transformed! -TISH HARRISON WARREN, Anglican priest; author, Liturgy of the Ordinary and Prayer in the Night
Faith and work theology is often quiet about applying passages such as Micah 6:8 to congregants' workplaces-whether one's workplace is at home, under a sink, or in an office building. Thankfully, Redeemer City to City has crafted this timely, accessible, practical and interactive course-intended for group study. Fellow travelers, who together explore this unchartered territory, will be emboldened to lead the way in applying Micah's moral injunctions to "act justly" and "love mercy" to their varied workplaces. -LUKE BOBO, chief program officer, Arrabon; former vice president, Networks, Made to Flourish; visiting professor, Contemporary Culture, Covenant Theological Seminary; author, Race, Economics, and Apologetics; Worked Up: Navigating Calling After College; and Living Salty and Light- Filled Lives in the Workplace
