Many of us will have heard the phrase: “Who you are matters more than what you do”. The question is, does the Bible really teach that? 

In Garden City, one of our favourite authors, John Mark Comer, gives a fresh take on our calling and our purpose, with a surprisingly counter-culture take. 

Through his creative and conversational style, Comer takes a good look at Genesis and the story of a man, a woman, and a garden. He unpacks for us God’s creation and his original intent for how we are meant to spend our time.

Here, you’ll find answers to questions like “Does God care where I work?”  “What about what I do with my free time or how much rest I get?” “Does he have a clear direction for me?”

We highly recommend this book as a great summer read. It is practical and theologically rich. We believe that it can speak to us all as we try to contemplate our next steps and the direction of our lives.
