Whether you love it or hate it, you spend the majority of your waking hours doing it. And as today’s guest tells us, it’s mentioned over 800 times in the Bible: We’re talking about work.

That’s why we’re so pleased to have Jordan Raynor join us on the podcast today to talk about how your work matters to God - today, every day of your life, and for eternity. This conversation will leave you inspired and encouraged to engage well with the word God is calling you to do, every single day.

We pray this episode is helpful for you and your marriage.

The Biblical truths of Heaven & Eternity that NO ONE is talking about
The “abridged Gospel” that most of us believe & the implications we miss if we do
