Five Podcasts That Will Inspire Your Faith & Work This Fall

Fall is a busy time of year with work, school, travel, and other activities for individuals and families. Time for pleasure reading may be slim, but podcasts are a great alternative for busy professionals on the go. We have collected a few of our favorites and hope you enjoy them as you do life with your loved ones this season.

Penance for Profits

He is heavily involved in this movement and shares his personal story with listeners to spur greater thought on these important subjects.

Building Worldviews

Mere Christians

Have you ever wondered about the connection between the nail scars in Jesus’ hands, the work of your hands, and eternity? These subjects are explored by Dr. Darrell Cosden, theologian and author of The Heavenly Good of Earthly Work. In this podcast, Cosden breaks down core themes in his book and explores weighty academic topics which include the value of secular work, the value of creation, the emphasis on heaven over the new earth by believers, and more.

Breakpoint

On this Labor Day podcast, author and financial commentator David Bahnsen unpacks the value of work and stewardship as he shares from his book, Full-Time: Work and the Meaning of Life.
