<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Arguing that our Sunday worship and our Monday work desperately need to inform and impact each other, this book shows how Christian leaders can help people connect work and worship"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The modern chasm between "secular" work and "sacred" worship has had a devastating impact on Western Christianity.<br/><br/>Drawing on years of research, ministry, and leadership experience, Kaemingk and Willson explain why Sunday morning worship and Monday morning work desperately need to inform and impact one another. Together they engage in a rich biblical, theological, and historical exploration of the deep and life-giving connections between labor and liturgy. In so doing, Kaemingk and Willson offer new ways in which Christian communities can live seamless lives of work and worship.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>Connecting Sunday Worship with Our Daily Work<br/></b><br/>"Here, finally, is the book that will take the 'faith and work' conversation to new depths of intentionality. With theological clarity and real-world accountability, Kaemingk and Willson mend what we have rent asunder. Advancing scholarship in theology of culture, it is also a must-read for those who lead worship for workers--which includes, of course, <i>everyone</i>. This should become a standard textbook, for the sake of the church and for the sake of the world."<br/>--<b>James K. A. Smith</b>, Calvin University; author of <i>Desiring the Kingdom</i>, <i> You Are What You Love</i>, and <i>On the Road with Saint Augustine</i><br/><br/>"Kaemingk and Willson make an inspired contribution to the underdeveloped connection between work and worship in Christian life. They do not take the predictable approach of beginning with a theology of work and applying it to worship; rather, they come at it from the opposite direction, proposing that when references to labor are faithfully represented in the liturgy, it forms us for the work we ultimately present to God in all vocations."<br/>--<b>Constance M. Cherry</b>, Indiana Wesleyan University; author of <i>The Worship Architect</i><br/><br/>"Born of years of deepening commitment and maturing insight, the great gift of this groundbreaking book is its remarkably rich study of Scripture and history, showing that the deepest, truest witness through the centuries comes from an understanding of liturgy and labor--which is surprisingly seamless. <i>Work and Worship </i>is a gift to the church."<br/>--<b>Steven Garber</b>, senior fellow for vocation and the common good, M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust; author of <i>The Seamless Life: A Tapestry of Love and Learning, Worship and Work</i><br/><br/>"In this beautiful and timely tome, Kaemingk and Willson argue quite persuasively and winsomely how work and worship were meant to be seamlessly coupled. They skillfully and methodically trace the rich biblical, theological, and historical foundation of this work and worship coupling across diverse people groups and cultures, ancient and modern. It is my earnest prayer that this book finally reunites and binds together--forever--these two vital segments of our lives."<br/>--<b>Luke Bobo</b>, director of strategic partnerships, Made to Flourish<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Matthew Kaemingk </b>(PhD, Vrije Universiteit and Fuller Theological Seminary) is associate dean for Fuller Texas (Houston), scholar-in-residence at the Max De Pree Center for Christian Leadership, and assistant professor of Christian ethics at Fuller Theological Seminary.<br/><br/><b>Cory B.
