How Do Humans Flourish?

“Danielle Sallade shows how the Bible challenges our current culture of obsessive busyness and identity fulfillment through work. Danielle demonstrates how we can approach our work from a position that is grounded in Scripture and secure in our primary identity as a servant of Jesus. She is alive to the practical implications for college students, providing many thoughtful reflections to help them consider―and possibly reconsider―what makes their work valuable and meaningful in the sight of God. This book would be helpful to college students who are seeking to understand what God has to say about their academic work and career choices, and also to anyone who works with college students and wants to provide wisdom about spiritually-healthy attitudes and habits related to work.”

“In her book on human flourishing, Sallade winsomely and patiently presses precious truths into the souls of her readers. Finding our identity in the finished work of Christ on our behalf. Mustering up the courage and trust to practice Sabbath. Prioritizing faithfulness over and above worldly productivity. Seeking treasure that can’t depreciate. I’ve passed these words onto numerous young men and women. And I re-read it annually myself, not merely for the incisive cultural analysis but because as a father of five and a bi-vocational pastor, its reminders are always timely. May the Holy Spirit use this book to direct many more hearts to the ‘love of God and the steadfastness of Christ.’”

Curtis Saxton

“This generation of Christians inhabit cultures that sometimes reject not only biblical revelation about reality, but also the reality of reality itself. The “Questions for Restless Minds” series poses many of the toughest questions faced by young Christians to some of the world’s foremost Christian thinkers and leaders.”

Russell Moore

“If you’re hungry to go deeper in your faith, wrestle with hard questions, and are dissatisfied with the shallow content on your social media newsfeed, you’ll really appreciate this series of thoughtful deep dives on critically important topics like faith, the Bible, friendship, sexuality, philosophy, and more. As you engage with some world-class Christian scholars, you’ll be encouraged, equipped, challenged, and above all invited to love God more with your heart, soul, mind, and strength.”

“We have written short books pitched at undergraduates who want arguments that are accessible and stimulating, but invariably courteous. The material is comprehensive enough that it has become an important resource for pastors and other campus leaders who devote their energies to work with students. Each essay ends with a brief annotated bibliography, intended for readers who want to probe a little further.”
