"Work is the rearranging of the raw material of God's creation in such a way that it helps the world in general, and people in particular, thrive and flouris." - Tim Keller

"We're called to a very specific kind of work: To make a garden-like world where image bearers can flourish and thrive, where people can experience and enjoy God's generous love. A Kingdom where God's will is done on earth as it is in heaven, where the glass wall between earth and heaven is so thin and clear and translucent that you don't even remember it's there." – John Mark Comer
