<blockquote><p>The Hebrew root word for &lsquo;work&rsquo; is also the root word for &lsquo;service&rsquo; particularly service to God in worship. By combining the two English words &lsquo;work&rsquo; and &lsquo;worship&rsquo; I hope to challenge people to integrate their faith and work. Work does not just refer to what is done in paid employment. I believe God sees work as any purposeful activity requiring focus and effort. It could be housework schoolwork caring for children or parents study paid work voluntary work etc. &ndash; Kara Martin</p></blockquote><p>In her book Kara explores the biblical view of work provides six spiritual disciplines to integrate faith and work shares practical wisdom on how to make a difference in the workplace and offers ideas to help churches better equip their congregations to live out their faith at work.</p>
