Garden City: Work, Rest, and the Art of being Human
By John Mark Comer
Garden City is a beautifully written invitation to rethink how we live, work, and rest. John Mark Comer paints a compelling picture of our identity, created in the image of God, called to rule and cultivate the earth with purpose and beauty.
The book begins in a garden and ends in a city, echoing the biblical narrative of creation and restoration. Comer reminds us that our work is not just a job, it is a calling. And our rest is not laziness, it is worship. He weaves together theology, culture, and everyday life to show how we can live meaningfully now, in light of the Kingdom to come.
This book is perfect for anyone longing to connect their faith with their daily life, and to rediscover the sacredness of both work and rest.
