BEST Book On Culture!

I grew up with the idea of "abstaining" from the culture and your book has encouraged and blessed me to continue pressing on to penetrate the culture with Christlike actions and attitudes. Also REALLY appreciate reading about the folks who go to work every week in their careers and making a difference. My wife's not working now and probably going to take the summer off, but is frustrated at not making more of a "difference", like missions work. But what I've shared with her is that people like herself in the corporate world ARE the salt and light that are making their witness known through integrity, faithfullness, etc. Wow, good stuff! I read a lot and your book is one of the best I've read this year and the BEST book on culture I've ever read...good job!
