Leisure the Basis of Labor

“Work-life balance” is a topic of much discussion. My colleague Michael Naughton does not like that way of putting it since it seems to imply that we have to live a life that is simply caught between two competing halves. A better way to think about it is whether one lives an integrated life. His new book, Getting Work Right: Labor and Leisure in a Fragmented World, offers a vision of work that is designed to help people see work as part of a calling by God.
