Redeeming Your Time
Manage your time the way Jesus managed his with a biblical antidote to swamped to-do lists and hurried schedules. “A highly practical road map.”—Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author and lead pastor of National Community Church Despite the overwhelming amount of resources for time management and work-life balance, the ability to cultivate the efficiency and equilibrium needed to manage all our worthy pursuits can often feel frustratingly out of reach. The reason for our struggle is that productivity and time-management systems focus on individual habits rather than more meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes. But as it turns out, there is a better way to reach our full po...
Called to Create
We were created by an infinitely creative God to reflect his love and character to the world. One way we do that is by continuing his creative work. In this energizing book, serial entrepreneur and bestselling author Jordan Raynor helps artists, entrepreneurs, writers, and other creatives reimagine our work as service to God and others, addressing such penetrating questions as - Is my work as a creative really as God-honoring as that of a pastor or missionary? - What does it look like to create not to make a name for myself but to glorify God and serve others? - How can I use my work to fulfill Jesus's command to create disciples? - Will what I make today matter in eternity? To answer these ...
Master of One
What is your one thing? The entrepreneur, thought leader, and best-selling author of Called to Create offers a refreshing invitation: stop trying to do it all so you can thrive in your unique, God-given work. “A compelling case for embracing our vocational limits and choosing to do our one thing well.”—Emily P. Freeman, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of The Next Right Thing Imagine how different your life would be if you spent your time doing the very thing that brings you the greatest joy. It’s possible, but most people spend their days making incremental advances on numerous tasks, competent at many things but exceptional at none. That’s because for too long we’ve beli...
Summary of Jordan Raynor's Redeeming Your Time
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Wilberforce was a great example of how changing your work habits can change your life for the better. He was initially elected to the British Parliament at the age of 21, and within five years his ambition was largely focused on gaining power and wealth. But after his conversion, Wilberforce focused completely on abolition of the slave trade. #2 The book that Wilberforce wrote was extremely practical. It was not a five-step process or a checklist of discussion questions at the end of each chapter, but it was rooted in the core tenets of the gospel that led to such dramatic changes in his life, work, and habits for managing time. #3 God is the author and creator of the bookends of time. In the 1970s, a Harvard professor found that the number one predictor of effectiveness in one’s career is having a long time perspective. #4 We were created to live forever, and we long to be productive forever. But we don’t just want to live forever—we also want to be productive forever. Work was meant to be very good, and we long for it to be that way again.
The Royal in You
From the author and illustrator team of The Creator in You comes a fresh and compelling picture book about what God’s heavenly kingdom will be like—and the place in it that he’s saving just for you. Jesus said He won’t stay in the clouds way up there. He’ll bring heaven to earth, and He’ll live with us here. Scripture teaches Christians that we should look forward with hope and joy to the day when God will make all things new—so why do many feel boredom or even dread when picturing God’s heavenly kingdom? Bestselling author Jordan Raynor follows up his successful picture book The Creator in You with an exciting, hope-filled look at what the Bible really tells us about heaven and the New Earth. Far from being the end of our story, it’s just the beginning of a new life filled with all the things we love about the earth—animals, music, adventure, and meaningful work—but without any of the things that make this world sad and broken. Based on Scripture and told with engaging rhyme and epic illustrations, The Royal in You is sure to become a go-to resource and beloved readaloud for families of faith.
The Sacredness of Secular Work
From a leading voice in the faith and work movement and author of Redeeming Your Time comes the revolutionary message that God sees our daily work—in whatever form it takes—with far more value than we ever imagined. “The Sacredness of Secular Work does an extraordinary job of being both personally relevant and, more importantly, biblically faithful.”—Randy Alcorn, New York Times bestselling author of Heaven Does your work matter for eternity? Sadly, most believers don’t think so. Sure, the 1 percent of the time they spend sharing the gospel with their co-workers matters. But most Christians view the other 99 percent of their time as meaning very little in the grand scheme of thin...
The Word Before Work
A weekday devotional to help Christians connect the gospel to their vocation and appreciate the eternal significance of their work—no matter what it is—from the entrepreneur, thought leader, and bestselling author of Redeeming Your Time. Perhaps you feel as if the work you do carries less eternal impact than the work of a pastor or missionary. But that’s not how God sees it. Whatever it looks like day to day, your work is ministry and central to God’s plans to restore fallen creation. As the days of creation reveal, God is quite familiar with work himself. He created humans with unique giftings and interests, specifically so we can pursue his redemptive work in partnership with him. ...

Stand Out
Have you ever asked yourself, "How can I stand out in my career?" This question is treated as one of the great mysteries of life, right alongside whether or not BigFoot is real and why we can't use electronic devices on airplanes.

As Raynor tells young employees at his companies, "You can't imagine how low the bar is for you to be successful in this world."
