Author Will Thomas seeks to take a broader view of the overall theme and purpose of Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians in GOD IS AT WORK!: And the Difference That Makes ($21.99, paperback, 9781662869846; $32.99, hardcover, 9781662869853; $9.99, e-book, 9781662869860).

 

Thomas explains that life is like a tapestry. The finished side reveals a beautifully planned masterpiece yet the underside is a jumble of knows, loose threads and chaotic colors. The underside is likened to life today. Thomas poses the question, “What if the Maker allowed us to see the masterpiece that He had in mind?” Through the lens of Paul's letter to the Ephesians, Thomas explores this theory with themes of grace, servanthood and the sovereignty of God together to form a multi-textured tapestry of faith that is both highly practical and rich in doctrine and inspiration. This exploration shows readers how many of the key issues in Paul’s letter are similar to what Christians and the Church face in contemporary life, especially the life of the Church as the body of Christ. 

 

When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Thomas said, “I have long loved the book of Ephesians and it’s message about God’s eternal purpose and gracious work in our lives. I hope to help others know and appreciate that message.

 

Will Thomas was born and raised on farm in the rural Midwest. He began preaching as a teenager, went to a nearby Bible college, and continued a life-long love of God. Thomas received the MA and MDiv degrees from Lincoln Christian University and his DMin from Northern Baptist Seminary. Years of preaching and teaching, combined with his love for the Bible, have resulted in his study, rich in insight and inspiration. Thomas is the author of six books and hundreds of magazine articles in dozens of publications, including Christianity Today, Eternity, His, Christian Standard, The Disciple, and many others, in addition to the widely read Chicken Soup for the Soul series. He has worked as a pig farmer, construction worker, campus minister, pastor, church planter, college professor, newspaper columnist, telemarketer and what he describes as a “struggling Aflac agent.”
