I cannot divorce this fact from reading his book, Work Excellence. He is one of the most godly men I know, and everyone can benefit from picking up and reading his little book on work. A concise 114 pages, it shouldn't intimidate anyone. With reflection questions at the end of each chapter, it should provide plenty of discussion for a small group. With Scripture all the way through, it should bolster a knowledge of Biblical thought and application. And with paragraphs like this you'll find Garriott delightfully quoteable: "There is no excellence in work if it does not lead to worship. It is a privilege to engage in an activity where you are productive. Your weekat work and your worship are tied together. To have something to offer the Lord as a result of your labor is an even greater honor. If worship is to please Him it must be done in concert with His character and will. This pleasing worship is possible only through Christ. He alone will enable you to worship in spirit and truth." I'd recommend this for college graduates (as a campus minister, I'm giving it to my seniors), for chuch small groups of all kinds, and for your own personal reading. ------------ Here's another one: "When you come home from work tired, worn ou, and ready to quit, or when you find that weeds have taken over your garden, you are being reminded of God's judgment and wrath. For those who do not believe, it is an unheeded warning of what is to come." Name: (optional) 3/14/05 7:12 pm bs: hey, can i have one of those?
