Towards a Photo Theology of Work

We labor in our various workplaces.  Gone are the mines and the mills, for the most part.  But our offices can be just as demanding:



Work even invades our bedrooms and other spaces that should be sacred.



In our quest for a theology of work, perhaps it is time to go much, much further back:



I envy the monastic schedule, with its balance of work, prayer, study, meals, and rest:



As we labor, let us remember that it's not only the worth of the work that gives our lives meaning.  Let us honor the ones that walk beside us:



Let us resolve to do the work that nurtures what is holy.
