Work: A Kingdom Perspective on LaborMost Christians spend most of their waking hours working, yet many regard work as at best a necessary evil just one more unfortunate by product of humanity's fall from grace. Not so, says Ben Witherington III, and in Work: A Kingdom Perspective on Labor, he considers work as neither the curse nor the cure of human life but, rather, as something good that God has given us to do.

Most Christians spend most of their waking hours working, yet many regard work as at best a necessary evil -- just one more unfortunate by-product of humanity's fall from grace. Not so, says Ben Witherington III, and in Work: A Kingdom Perspective on Labor, he considers work as neither the curse nor the cure of human life but, rather, as something good that God has given us to do. In this brief primer on the biblical theology and ethics of work, Witherington carefully unpacks the concept of work, considering its relationship to rest, play, worship, the normal cycle of human life, and the coming Kingdom of God. Work as calling, work as ministry, work as a way to make a living, and the notably unbiblical notion of retirement -- Witherington's Work engages these subjects and more, combining scholarly acumen with good humor, common sense, cultural awareness, and biblically based insights from Genesis to Revelation. "Ben Witherington has given the whole people of God something desperately needed to make sense of Monday to Friday -- a theology of work that breaks down the heretical sacred-secular distinction. . . . Offers a work-view and life-view that, if embraced, would revitalize the mission of God's people in the world. It's that good." -- R. Paul Stevens author of The Other Six Days and Taking Your Soul to Work "Conducting a critical dialogue with the theological voices of our day, drawing upon the wisdom of the Christian tradition, and offering a sensitive reading of New Testament parables, Witherington delivers sound counsel on the Kingdom meaning of work and its implications for our lives today." -- Lee Hardy author of The Fabric of This WorldBinding Type: Paperback

Good quality, but…
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
Good quality supplement for the price. I started to take it for my joints as I have an auto immune disease. My only complaint is that in order to get enough EPA for it to be effective for that I have to take a minimum of two a day but when I do that it makes me a little dizzy and upsets my stomach. I’m not sure if that’s because I’m on high blood pressure meds and because I don’t have a gallbladder, so I just take one a day of it for general health. I may try another brand just to see if my body has the same response.

Dropped LDL by 38 at one year check up
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I am a 48 year old female weighing 126 lbs. I want to praise this product for reducing cholesterol levels. I have seen the cardiologist to be proactive since my dad died of heart disease and because it runs on both sides of the family. My cholesterol levels have been borderline high for several years but not to the point of needing medication. In April 2025 it was the highest levels so far. I had been eating healthy cereals and exercising at that time so I was surprised it had increased. I have taken this supplement daily for a full year without missing many doses. I just had my yearly check up on April 1, 2026, and my total cholesterol dropped by 37 and the bad LDL dropped by 38. I am very please with my results. All my levels were in the optimal range except the LDL and It was in the nearly optimal range per the Labcorp graph and total cholesterol was in the acceptable range. I have not exercised in 8 months and I eat a lot of fast food, so this product is the only explanation for the improvement. I also started the Megared CoQ10 about 5 weeks before my labs but it wouldn't be long enough to be that helpful yet. I am going to stay on the CoQ10 in addition to the Megared 4 in 1 product to see if it further lowers the LDL to the optimal range next year.
In one year with no diet changes or exercise:
Cholesterol total went from 228 to 191
LDL Cholesterol went from 161 to 123
The only thing I do not like about the product is the price but with those results I can't complain. It is worth it.
