-Eric Dale has written a book that integrates the scholarship of theology and the social sciences. The book presents a compelling analysis of the nature of work in our society and the essential problems we all confront in our everyday work life in modern/postmodern society. The book will enlighten our further scholarship and will assist us in transforming our own work lives. (It) informs us at every point that our work is of spiritual consequence.- (Richard Quinney, Northern Illinois University)"
Utilizing a wellspring of sources, Eric Dale provides in this unique study a contemporary spirituality of work both practical and wholistic in which there is no separation between contemplation and action, between the so-called spiritual life and the realities of everyday worklife. Exploring the relevance of human labor to community life, and of aesthetics to work and human fulfillment, he demonstrates the need for re-evaluating both spirituality and work and for resacralizing all of life. "Bringing Heaven Down to Earth" helps re-claim for all people today the Christian spiritual tradition, East and West, by highlighting its universal themes of worship and service with practical applicability.
