Adam Griffin is joined by Jordan Raynor to have a conversation about the joy of work and the promises of eternity.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What kicked off all your thinking and writing about how Christians consider their work?
  • How did Genesis 1-2 change the way you thought about being a father?
  • What advice would you give to parents who struggle to see the significance of their daily tasks at home in God's larger plan? What encouragement would you offer to parents who feel overwhelmed or undervalued in their role at home?
  • How do you cast a vision for your family to view everything they do as unto the Lord?
  • Why are so many people afraid or disinterested in heaven?
  • What did you write the “The Royal in You”?
  • What are the promises in scripture about eternity?
