Work, Love, Pray

Practical Wisdom for Young Professional Christian Women

By: Diane Paddison

Narrated by: Ruth Bloomquist

The number of Christian women in today's professional workforce is increasing, and they are hungry for practical mentoring. They yearn to learn from someone who has climbed the ladder of success without sacrificing family or faith--something author Diane Paddison has done with excellence and grace.

The stories Paddison shares about her corporate, personal, and spiritual life, as well as the lives of other women like her, are both inspiring and instructive, providing on-target advice and concrete examples of how to succeed without feeling overwhelmed or compromised.

This is a working book for working women. Full of practical, proven guidance that is both professionally viable and biblically sound, each chapter includes sidebars featuring pertinent facts from current research, resources relevant to the chapter's topic, action-oriented "to do" lists, and other interactive material. Chapters also include questions suitable for discussion, making it an excellent resource for use in small groups.

Work, Love, Pray is a valuable resource for professional Christian women, but it's also a must-read for the husbands, sisters, daughters, and friends who share their lives.

Such a solid, practical look at life

I love that I felt heard through her words. In so many stories I kept saying, "that is me!"

THANK YOU for finally saying what I've wanted to say for the majority of my adult life that I have chosen to be single in. I'm now happily married, and I wish I had this book a decade ago.

Starts off with a big ego but gets better later

The author starts off talking about her career from beginning to present. She appears to be patting herself on the back the whole time. But later she does admit mistakes and gives good advice with a lot of valuable resources to check out.

Save time

Read the last two chapters. They were the only highlights. You can disregard the others.
