Customer Reviews

Easy read. Applicable advice.

This book puts work and Christian living in perspective. I found practical and applicable guidance on how to be successful in the corporate world, or on any job, and not compromise my Christian integrity. Kim Hackney takes integrity on the job to another level...character building. When you read this book you realize you don't have to succumb to worldly ways to get ahead; it is already in God's plan to give us a hope and a future. If we do things His way He will give us favor with man. The style of this book is candid, personal, and easy to follow. The self reflection sections at the end of each section promote personal growth. I think this book is wonderful for personal or group study. Buy one for yourself and a few to give as gifts.

A "Must Have" for the Working Woman!

Kim's approach to the subject of Christians in the workplace is very real and practical. After reading the book, I actually have bible-based insight and answers to address the many circumstances that all Christians face in the workplace everyday. I now have a whole new perspective of "Why" God has placed us, Christians, in the workplace. My job is no longer just a place where I go to work and earn money, it is now my mission field. Excellent reading!
