Product Description
About the Book

Many business books point to certain values or habits to be practiced and cultivated. But we need more than abstract principles to guide us in the pursuit of good business. More significantly, we need a genuine experience of the dynamic presence of God at work in our work.

Businessman and CEO John Beckett calls us to the transformation of the workplace into a place where the kingdom of God is experienced. Through sharing his own story, as well as looking to biblical and modern-day examples, Beckett offers role models that serve as companions on the journey to faithful and fruitful work. Drawing on a lifetime of wisdom and business acumen, Beckett invites us to enter into the privilege of working in active partnership with God himself.

Join the international movement of those whose faith is transforming their work. Master your Mondays by bringing them under the realm of the Master.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Perspective for those Struggling with the Marketplace, February 7, 2007
By Scott E. Sorensen (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
John Beckett has accurately captured many of the struggles and tensions Christians experience daily in the marketplace. Aspects of the author's journey are common to many Christians. His chapter "Integrating two Worlds" will be a help to any Christian in the marketplace -it is an issue that continually manifests itself. The phrase "I found that my growing faith was often relevant to work issues - but the reverse was also true. Workplace issues challenged and strengthened my faith, occasionally more than I anticipated." provides an encouraging perspective. The author shares his own experiences in this realm - in a transparent way that should be encouraging to all who read.

The section "Companions on the Journey" provides a number of biblical stories and characters from which much is to be learned and applied to our work world today. These are not one size fits all stories, but the characters and illustrations the author selects will provide much to think about. This is mixed in with some stories of contemporary business leaders and recent situations they have faced and their responses.

Finally, a discussion of God's workplace agenda and what theme's the author believes are critical in this discussion. In light of some recent business failures (more specifically failures of leadership) - this section does a good job of connecting the themes to "good business". It is a reminder of what really matters - and some encouragement to have the courage to do the right things.

This is a pretty quick reading book, but I don't think it is a read once and put it on the shelf. I'm sure I'll be referring back to it every year or so to remind myself of proper perspectives and to be encouraged in my work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mastering Monday A Guide To Integrating Faith and Work, January 10, 2007
By B. L. Ducinsky (Springfield, MO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Total integration of the concepts that bring Christian values and work together as expressed in Mastering Monday work. It is not fiction. As a friend of John, his family and the R W Beckett Corporation for many years,I have witnessed the successful result. Placing the Christian Values as expressed in this book into the workplace can bring about successful change in any corporation and in the lives of the entire workforce.
Bernie Duchinsky, Former President and CEO, Nordyne, Inc.

5.0 out of 5 stars John Beckett is the Real Deal, January 8, 2007
This book is really just an extension of John's life. I've known John and his family for more than thirty years. Jesus said, "By their fruits you shall know them." Sometimes you have to get close to inspect the fruit. John's faith, family and business are definitely integrated. The fruit that I've personally had witness to for over three decades is as high a quality as anyone that I know in Christendom. If you're a Christian who has to work for a living, you should own this book.
