Good words from Chuck Colson:
“Many evangelicals define faith strictly in terms of personal salvation. Yet soul-winning is not an end in itself.

The following blog is the final installment in a six-part series on worldview and work taken from Darrow Miller’s new book LifeWork: A Biblical Theology for What You Do Every Day.
