How does your work matter for eternity? And how can all of our work - not just gospel-focused work - be sacred? In this faith-filled episode of the Work and Worship podcast, Jordan interviews Jordan Raynor on his new book, The Sacredness of Secular Work. 

Get ready to have your perspective on work and faith transformed as Jordan explains how all God-honoring work, from entrepreneurship to changing diapers, contributes to cultivating God's kingdom on earth.

You'll be encouraged and equipped to view your daily grind through a sacred lens.
