EVERY GOOD ENDEAVOR REFLECTION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
Keller (2014) states “we must love our neighbor, but Christianity gives us very specific teachings
about human nature and what makes human beings flourish. We must make sure that our work is
done in line with these understandings. Faithful work, then, is to operate out of a Christian
Worldview” (p. 21).
The different Christian traditions “give somewhat different answers of how we should go about
the task of recapturing vocation. The streams are often confusing to Christians, for they are not
perfectly complementary to one another” (Keller, 2014, p.21).
We are going to reflect on some of these sentiments that Keller introduces in Every Good
Endeavor.
