    About this audiobook

    The Short Studies in Biblical Theology series is designed to help readers see the whole Bible as a unified story-culminating in Jesus. Insightful, accessible, and practical, these books are perfect for readers looking for bite-sized introductions to major subjects in biblical theology. The third volume in the series, Work and Our Labor in the Lord explores how work fits into the framework of the whole Bible-looking at the original creation purpose for work, how it was affected by the fall, and the hope for lasting good offered to all who toil and labor in the Lord today.

      The reader in this audiobook is putting the listeners to sleep. Too sleepy or lazy voice.
    • 5/5
      I love how James Hamilton wries on such a sensitive topic to begin with. We all know how drudging some work can be. However I love how based on SCRIPTURE we see every work having its foundation in CHRIST. Every work except for sinful work e.g. addictive products and sexual immorality as work. This book is a good guide I feel to return you back to GOD'S words on work. Work is not the issue, its the curse that befell upon work that makes it the way we feel it is. GOD help us to regain the beauty of work as YOU intended it to be.
