About the Book

Work, whether from home, in cyberspace, or in a factory or office, occupies a major chunk of our time, energy, and soul. This book seeks to make sense of our work in the world through adapting the pithy statement of the Puritan William Perkins to define marketplace theology as the "science of working blessedly forever." It is a science involving investigation, not just with the head (thought), but also with heart (prayer) and hand (practice). But it is a science of working. So the book investigates a theology of work undertaken in the light of God's blessing and purpose. And our work is not just for this life but "forever," since some of it could last into the new heaven and new earth where, guess what, Scripture says we will work as fully human and resurrected beings. Stevens gathers his lifetime of research and teaching into this book showing through biblical research and contemporary analysis the meaning of work and human enterprise. It could change your lifestyle, your workstyle, and your soul.

About the Author :
R. Paul Stevens is Emeritus Professor in Marketplace Theology at Regent College, Vancouver, and chairman of the Institute for Marketplace Transformation. He teaches, writes, and practices what he writes as a carpenter, a homemaker, a professor, and a husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. His most recent book among many is The Kingdom of God in Working Clothes: The Marketplace and the Reign of God (Wipf & Stock, 2022).

Review :
"This book offers profound reflections on integrating faith and work. Insightful and deeply grounded, it inspires readers to deeper discipleship and spiritual growth by seeing God in our daily work. A valuable resource for all who seek to live faithfully and fruitfully in their vocation."
--Jean Lee, Principal and Professor of Theology, Canadian Chinese School of Theology Toronto

"Our involvement in the marketplace and in all that we seek to do in daily life, needs an inspirational and a sustaining center. And this global book gives us a rich tapestry of ancient and contemporary Christian spiritual resources and perspectives. It provides a vision of how to live in the way of Christ, in the wisdom of the Spirit, to the glory of God, and for human flourishing in our places of work and other activities. Here is a spiritual wisdom sculpted out of experience and fidelity. Here are spiritual practices tested in challenging workplaces. Here is a vision of life that pulsates with a love of God's kingdom ways. Here is the heartbeat of what it means to live wholly for God and for the neighbor. And here--through the many voices in this book--is a passion for transforming lives, workplaces, and our institutions."
--Charles Ringma, Emeritus Professor, Regent College

"Working Blessedly Forever: Volume 3 offers a rare and invigorating addition to marketplace theology--one that goes beyond mere integration to focus on formation. Anchored in voices from around the world and in profound spiritual wisdom, it reimagines the workplace as sacred ground where God molds the soul. This book doesn't just inform; it calls for transformation. An essential read for every believer seeking depth in daily work."
--Willy Kotiuga, Chair, Board of Regents, Bakke Graduate University
