43 min - 156: The Sacredness of Secular Work - why ALL of your work matters for eternity with Jordan Raynor
Does your work actually matter for eternity? Sadly, most believers don’t think so.
That’s why I sat down with my all-time favorite nonfiction author and HERO in the faith and work space, Jordan Raynor, to discuss his latest (and maybe greatest) book, The Sacredness of Secular Work: 4 Ways Your Job Matters for Eternity (Even When You're Not Sharing the Gospel).
And in honor of the book’s release today, I finally get to share it with you.
I can hardly believe how much wisdom he packed into this one conversation, sharing:
- Some of the biggest lies and twisted truths perpetuated by the western evangelical church about work
- Why treating the Great Commission as the only commission ironically makes us much less effective at spreading the good news
- The key to seeing how 100% of your time at work matters to God
- Why abridging the gospel down to “the good news that Jesus came to save people from their sins” is to inadvertently accuse Jesus of being “loser instead of Lord”, and what the true message is instead
- The truth behind half-truths like “earth is our temporary home” and “we will worship for eternity” (this was huge for me)
- A summary of God’s plan for work from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22
And toward the end, I couldn’t help but ask, how is this book different than Every Good Endeavor - the book by Tim Keller that greatly influenced both my work and Jordan’s. You have to hear his answer. There is SO much life-altering information in The Sacredness of Secular Work that I can almost guarantee you haven’t heard.
Enjoy every minute of this interview with my hero, Jordan Raynor.
Cheering you on,
Kelsey Kemp

58 min - 155: Client Success Story | Tech Consulting to Financial Advising
In this episode, my former client, Kyle, shares his RIVETING story of leaving tech consulting to become a financial advisor - only AFTER God majorly intervened in the 11th hour of his job hunt. (Hint: we thought landscape architecture or client success management was going to be the winner. Financial advising wasn't really on the horizon until God made it abundantly clear!) Tune in to hear the full, wild story, as well as some of the profound lessons he learned along the way.
NOTE: This interview was recorded on Feb 6th, 2022. In the year since, Kyle has continued to flourish and feel confirmed as a financial advisor at Edward Jones. I'll have to have him on for a round 2 to share more updates!
