Drawing from his experience as Principal and Director of Mission, Tim Joy weaves day-to-day high school moments in his weekly Sunday night emails to his staff, along with imagined visitations from the pivotal life of John Baptist de La Salle. In the long arc of a single school year, the staff's unceasing work among students emerges as a consequential moral act.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Beautiful Work\u003c\/em\u003e is a direct message from the mission field of education to amplify the vital nature of the profession, to elevate the dignity of all those who work in schools, and to restore the work as a sacred enterprise requiring adults to submit to their calling and embrace its grave and transcendent responsibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 10, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51894762832160,"sku":"9798993921600","price":19.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/Uv6ubAGvi_9798993921600.webp?v=1782025085","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-beautiful-work-contemplations-on-why-we-teach-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
