As a newly appointed youth pastor, I blindly walk by faith, stumbling without the promised light down God's chosen path. Until a young man resurrects the sinful nature I've rejected in my strive for purity. Isaac Van Dusen, my pastor's son. He's troubled. Rebellious. Off limits to my lonely heart, yet gives me breath when I feel I'm drowning and in need of a savior. Isaac's hunger for sin rivals mine, the kind that consumes. Burns like fire and brimstone. I'm determined to stay in a constant state of prayer, begging for delivery from temptation-all while dreaming of being on my knees for entirely different reasons. I want to submit to the unholy craving between us and worship the young man entrusted to my spiritual care. But acting on the lusts of the flesh ensures our fall from grace, and I can't allow him to be the second one to pay the price for my sins. Even if it means living a lie for eternity.

His presence fills the emptiness in my life, but my sinful nature longs for more. Every inch of him-in my heart, in my body, making me feel whole again. As an overseas missionary who leads lost souls toward salvation, it's imperative I live a godly existence, even in the midst of life-shattering grief. Returning to the States brings about a trial worse than the loss of love, and I'm faced with desire for someone forbidden to me by my church and the word of God. Aaron Weston. My best friend's son who is no longer a gangly teen. He makes me want things no newly widowed man should. His presence fills the emptiness in my life, but my sinful nature longs for more. Every inch of him-in my heart, in my body, making me feel whole again. Giving into the hunger of the flesh will take us down a path of immorality, one that goes against my strive for holiness. I lost my wife from focusing on promised riches in glory. And if I make the same mistake, I fear responsibility for the ruination of another soul.

Is there interaction between love and work? If so, in what ways does it appear? The main incentive for this research is the notable increase of American and Dutch people who wish to spend more and more of their time working and who feel useless and robbed of their identity when separated from their jobs. It seems that work is considered more fulfilling and satisfying than love, which can be undermined by failing relationships, tension, depression, violence, addiction, crime or angry and unmanageable children. Whereas Proust described love in a milieu where most of the work was done by servants and artists, Freud was convinced that love and work were the two main pillars of society. This view has been echoed by psychologists, sociologists, philosophers and novelists. However, a new phenomenon is that men and women share love and work. Finding the right balance between the two is a hot topic in “how to” books, newspaper and magazine articles but the underlying connections have received little if any scrutiny. In fact it may well be a mission impossible since, as the Frankfurt School asserted, the capitalist powers, in search of profit, urge politicians to lure men, women and children onto the work floor by telling them work is a duty that not only will provide disposable income but also happiness and fulfillment in life. Hence people internalize this message without asking themselves why continuous consumption is more important than giving and receiving love, which they crave but seldom find. Although focusing on middle-class people between the ages of twenty five and forty who are travelling the “highway of life”, have paid jobs, a relationship of at least three years and children, this study should be of interest to everyone.
