Redeeming Productivity

Feeling overwhelmed and unproductive? The answer isn't to do more. In the ancient world, productivity didn't conjure images of spreadsheets or assembly lines. It referred to crop yield and fruit bearing. This agrarian imagery helps us understand productivity through a biblical lens. Jesus taught, By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit (John 15:8). Who doesn't want to have a productive life--to bear much fruit? The world says be productive so that you can get all you can out of this life. The Bible says be productive so you can gain more of the next life. In Redeeming Productivity, author Reagan Rose explores how God's glory is the purpose for which He planted us. Rose shows how productivity is rooted in the gospel. Only through our relationship to Christ--the True Vine--are we empowered to produce good fruit. This book helps readers maintain the vitality of that connection.
