THE SACRED MEANING OF EVERYDAY WORK
By Robert H. Tribken
Engage problems and opportunities with a new sense of purpose.
Many of us have a deep, intuitive desire to connect with something deeper than ourselves; for many, this means a deeper awareness of God and the divine mystery as we go through the week. And we have a closely related desire to contribute to the greater good and the well-being of other people through our work.
These powerful desires can profoundly affect our work lives if we let them guide us to our deeper purpose.
The Sacred Meaning of Everyday Work will help you find this new sense of purpose and deal with your challenges and opportunities with wisdom, strength, and courage.
