From the Publisher:
It can sometimes be difficult to see the link between our Sunday worship and the Monday morning grind.
So how can our relationship with Jesus impact how we live and serve in our daily lives?
Tim Chester unpacks how we can relate the Holy to the everyday. He explores how seemingly inconsequential tasks can point us to Jesus. This detailed exploration considers how even washing the dishes can be done to the glory of God as part of a whole life lived in sacrifice to Him. Wonderfully, this doesn’t have to be a depressing or dismal thing, but can leave us marveling again at God’s goodness and grace.

More than 2,400 years ago one of the most thrilling war stories in history was being read and discussed in Greece. It was called the Anabasis and was written by a Greek noble named Xenophon, who described at first hand what he did, what he suffered, and what he saw during a campaign against the Persians.
To read The Exploits of Xenophon is to read a story as vivid as if it had been written by an army colonel in the last war.
