Hard Work Never Killed Anybody

Angebote / Angebote:

Hard work never killed anybody" is a mantra repeated by everyone from prime ministers to workers, but this national belief contributes to injury and death in the workplace every day. In his ministry to bereaved families and injured workers John Bottomley has noted how the ideology of hard work has been exaggerated to the point of becoming an idolatry. This book confronts that idolatry with Bottomley's long experience, personal stories, and the insights of scripture. Using Walter Brueggemann's "prophetic imagination", and the Australian indigenous experience of "deep listening", the book offers an alternative vision of "companioning pastoral care". John Bottomley is a Uniting Church in Australia minister. After outer suburban ministry and research work in a ship-building yard prompted awareness of workplace issues, he founded, with other ministers, an agency to minister at work. Over thirty years the Creative Ministries Network, with John as Director, has emerged as Australia's leading church-based research agency into work-related harm, while demonstrating the contribution of Christ's gospel to healing, justice and reconciliation through practical programs that respond to injustice and suffering.
