Listeners will hear the joy and excitement in Pastor John Mark Comer’s voice as he delivers his own work detailing his understanding of how we should spend our time in a fallen world striving for the hope of returning to the Garden of Eden. It’s obvious, however, that he’s constrained by reading from his own manuscript instead of being able to flow with his notes, as he does when delivering sermons. Regardless, his biblical knowledge and deep understanding of the faith are evident in his tone and pace, enabling listeners to learn how to live the abundant life promised by Christ. Both his enthusiasm and contagious personality will keep listeners’ attention and leave them wanting to hear the pastor’s message again and again. T.D. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine

You've heard people say, "Who you are matters more than what you do." But does the Bible really teach us that?*Join pastor and bestselling author John Mark Comer in*Garden City*as he guides twenty- and thirty-somethings through understanding and embracing their God-given calling.
In*Garden City, John Mark Comer gives a surprisingly countercultural take on the typical "spiritual" answer the church gives in response to questions about purpose and calling. Comer explores Scripture to discover God's original intent for how we're meant to spend our time, reshaping how you view and engage in your work, rest, and life.
In these pages, you'll learn that, ultimately, what we do matters just as much as who we are.*Garden City*will help you find answers to questions like:
- Does God care where I work?
- Does he have a clear direction for me?
- How can I create a practice of rest?
*
Praise for*Garden City:
"In*Garden City, John Mark Comer takes the reader on a journey--from creation to the final heavenly city. But the journey is designed to let each of us see where we are to find ourselves in God's good plan to partner with us in the redemption of all creation. There is in*Garden City*an intoxication with the Bible's biggest and life-changing ideas."
--Scot McKnight, Julius R. Mantey Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary
