THANK GOD IT’S MONDAY
Diehl, William E.
Fortress, 1982
196 pages

The author brings biblical concepts and images to bear on job-related issues such as competition, materialism and status. Using his forty years of business experience as a guide, Diehl suggests ways the gospel should inform the Christian’s life at work. He establishes the book’s exceptionally empathetic tone in the first chapter through a series of interviews with struggling Christian workers. He also includes a valuable discussion of the modern “principalities and powers” that can control our lives — ideology, security and institutions. The book offers an original and highly stimulating critique of modern life in America. An excellent autobiographical introduction to marketplace thinking and living.

"Peter said to him, "We have left everything to follow you!" "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life." "

Mark 10:28-30 (NIV)
