About the book

Most people will spend between sixty and seventy percent of their lives at work. This is an incredible investment of time, energy and creativity and God has a very particular desire for that huge portion of your life. God cares about every part of your life, not just the parts that are spent in church and church related activities. 

In Transform Your Work Life Graham Power and Dion Forster share some testimony and teaching on what God has done with them, and what God wants to do with and through Christians in the marketplace. The book shares a great deal of Graham’s testimony and experience as God has used him in the Power Group of Companies.

Your work life is one of the most accessible and significant mission fields in the world. Graham Power and Dion Forster offer some truly practical, sometimes challenging, hopefully inspiring insights into the tools and processes that you can use to transform your ordinary day into an extraordinary calling, and by doing so transform your work life.

What others are saying about this book:

Graham Power and Dion Forster have finally brought the role of the marketplace into the prominence it deserves! When you read the Bible, it soon becomes obvious that the focus of the ministry and outreach of Christ was nearly exclusively on the marketplace. If you are looking for the secrets of how to succeed with your faith in your workplace, then ‘Transform your Work Life’ is for you.

Dr Bruce Wilkinson, author of The Prayer of Jabez

Graham Power has become a very special friend to me and a man whom I esteem highly when it comes to doing business in a Godly manner. In this day and age, when anything seems to go, it is so good to know that there are still successful businessmen who operate strictly according to God’s principles.

People often ask, “What is my calling?”. The answer is partly simple: the majority of us are called to the marketplace. The interwoven stories of Graham and Dion will encourage you to make your occupation your vocation, your job a ‘beroep’, in the true sense of the word. I highly commend these good friends to you; read their story so that your heart will be encouraged, your mind renewed, and your spirit emboldened. God, being a lawyer, understands legal precedent, so what he has done for them he can do for you and me if we walk in similar obedience. Make their story a springboard for your story. ‘But, he is successful and if I had his money I could also serve God,’ you may say. Don’t ask for money like Graham – ask for humility like Graham. Don’t ask for a ministry like Dion’s, but minister with all that you have, right where you are. Don’t wait for one great thing to do, but take the next step of obedience. I am delighted that Graham and Dion are challenging us to integrate our work and faith so that we can be a part of the extraordinary company of ordinary marketplace people who are extending the kingdom through daily business.

The account of the Global Day of Prayer -
the largest prayer movement in all recorded history.

Reading the history of the continent of Africa and its people there are many blood-stained punctuation marks – years of colonization, millions of lives sold as slaves, genocide, war and famine. The African story has been told in pain; but through the misery there has always been a song of hope, a deep burning desire that Africa’s time would finally come... A time when Africa would become the bearer of light and no longer carry the burden of darkness.

In February 2000, only one year after Graham Power gave his life to the Lord, God began to speak instructions and a powerful promise into Graham’s spirit. God instructed Graham to call together Christians of all denominations to gather for a day of repentance and prayer. A vision of a united, prosperous Africa began to stir in his heart. Now less than a decade later, what began in South African in 2001 with one stadium gathering has grown into the world largest single prayer event, taking place in almost every nation across the globe. Graham Power’s description of the beginning of the Global Day of Prayer is proof of the power of the Holy Spirit, a testimony to the effectiveness of believer’s prayers, and a guide to cultivating dynamic intercession.

A story that will truly inspire -
and challenge you!
