Ep 1417 | It's Time to Get to Work | Jonny Ardavanis

Jonny Ardavanis, lead teaching pastor and elder of Stonebridge Bible Church, joins Allie to discuss his new book, "Get to Work: Seeing Your Daily Grind as God’s Good Gift." They explore a biblical perspective on work, ambition, rest, and why work was designed by God before the Fall. Jonny explains how ordinary jobs can become acts of worship, why our identity must be rooted in Christ rather than professional success, and how the growing influence of AI and convenience may affect our sense of purpose and humanity. ana kate is available to download in the app store today: https://www.anakate.com/get-the-app The ana kate app is coming soon for Android users!
