In 1942, with bombs still falling on London, a bestselling detective novelist stood up and told the Church it had gotten work almost entirely wrong.Her name was Dorothy Sayers. She wasn't a theologian — she paid the bills writing murder mysteries and translated Dante for fun. But in her essay "Why Work?" she made a claim that still stings: most of us, and most of our churches, treat our jobs as the part of life where God isn't paying attention.This week on FaithWorks Lancaster, Josh and Eric do something different. Instead of a living guest, they invite a guest from the past into the room and put four honest questions to her essay — then let an 80-year-old argument talk back to the way we work now.--Subscribe for weekly episodes on leadership, purpose, and professional growth.Join the Community: faithworkslanc.orgFollow on Socials: @faithworksLanc ​
