Announcement--Revelation
The Theology of Work Project is commissioning more than 50 research projects, each of which is designed to identify key principles in workplace theology. Each book of the Bible is covered in these projects, as are the twenty key topics or issues identified in our original survey. These research projects are designed to produce the following:
1. Individual articles produced by individual members of the research team covering the section of the Bible or the key topic.
2. Additional facts, principles, and fragments of information which might not neatly fit into the core article of the research team, but may prove valuable to future researchers/writers/ministries, and is therefore captured and made available in this central database.
3. From the 50 research projects, major principles will be culled for inclusion in a Theology of Work document, perhaps even a covenant, which the field of workplace theology will have an opportunity to discuss with an eye towards ratifying a pact similar to the one developed by the Lausanne Conference for missions.
4. In addition to driving towards a central database of information useful to anyone engaged in work/faith, in workplace research, in workplace ministry, and/or in ministering to and through workers; the Project will also be commissioning projects like Bible studies, books, podcasts, commentaries and other creative vehicles that make its' research understandable, and therefore useful, to Christians eager to more fully integrate their faith into their daily work lives.
These research projects will be made available online, and we're providing a link to the first one so you get a taste for the kind of materials the Project will produce. Who, for example, could imagine the research team responsible for covering the book of Revelation could dodge the widely-divergent views of faithful Christians about eschatology and produce a work useful to all of them?
