In this week’s episode of the Circle 31 Podcast, we’re kicking off the month with Jordan Raynor and  Kaleigh Cox, authors of our August Circle 31 Book Club pick, Five Mere Christians. From stories about preschool PE and chicken restaurant uniforms to deep theological truths, this episode sets the tone for our monthlong conversation about glorifying God in our everyday work — paid or unpaid.

You’ll hear: 

• How redefining work (yes, even laundry and dog walks!) can reshape the way you see your purpose.
• What makes work sacred — and why Jesus spent most of His adult life doing carpentry.
• The surprisingly freeing truth about God’s plan. (Spoiler: He doesn’t need you … He wants you!)
