Why Work?

Quote in Your Work Matters to God by Sherman/Hendricks..

...by Dorothy Sayers, an author and professor in England. In April 1942, she delivered an address at Easbourne, England, entitled, "Why Work?" In aswereing that questions she said the following;

"In nothing has the Church so lost her hold on reality as in her failure to understand and respect the secular vocation. She has allowed work and religion to become separate departments, and is astonished to find that, as a result, the secular work of the world is turned to purely selfish and destructive ends, and that the greater part of the world's intelligent workers have become irreligious, or at least, uninterested in religion. But is it astonishing? How can any one remain interested in a religion which seems to have no concern with nine-tenths of his life?
