Sometimes we feel like our work doesn't matter--we might not be getting paid much, we don't have many opportunities to share the Gospel, so what is the point? You might be surprised to hear that God's design for work is bigger than the Great Commission, and deeper than economics. Jordan Raynor joins us to share about the eternal significance of our work and how it might just change the way we walk into our classrooms each day.

heRZOG FOUNDATIoN
America turns 250 years old next summer. And as we approach this incredible milestone, the Herzog Foundation is launching the Freedom Tour—a national event series celebrating the history and hope of America. It’s a powerful reminder that our freedoms—life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—aren’t government-made, they’re God-given.
The Freedom Tour invites you to experience how faith shaped our founding- and to carry that message into your classrooms, your homes, and your communities.
And that’s not all. Starting this summer, the Herzog Foundation is also releasing a new video series called Faith & Freedom 250. Every Friday, you’ll hear voices from across America—teachers, parents, pastors, and leaders—sharing powerful stories from our nation’s history and reminding us why our founding values still matter today. Learn more and follow along at FreedomTour250.com.
