The Mighty Hunter and Your 9-5

Episode Title: The Mighty Hunter and Your 9-5

Episode Description:

What if the most boring chapter in Genesis holds the secret to transforming how you feel about Monday mornings? A unexpected name in a genealogy list—yes, the same Nimrod from Bugs Bunny cartoons—reveals something most of us miss about our daily grind. It's not about finding your dream job or doing what you love. It's about who's watching while you work. And that changes everything.

In This Episode:

  • The cartoon insult that accidentally preserved a biblical truth about excellence
  • Why working "before the LORD" isn't about being religious at work—it's something deeper
  • What happens when you stop seeing your job as just a paycheck
  • The question that could turn your least favorite workday into something you never expected
  • A morning habit that puts your 9-5 in completely different hands

Key Quote:

"What if you chose to do this job 'before the LORD'? Work to be the living definition of your job so that God receives all the glory in what we do."

About the Podcast

Leaving the Kid's Table
Do you remember the “kid’s table” when at family holidays or dinners? I do and that is right where I feel I am at, still, in my walk with God. Some look at it as being “ankle deep” in our walk. Either way, I am at a point where I am tired of being in this state. Every Monday at 6 am I will release short episodes where I am going to share what stood out to me in my time with God. At the end of the day it comes down to where scripture meets your story. You may be in the same spot as I am or you are sitting at the adult table or may need to join the kids table. Either option is ok, these episodes are to start the conversation as to “what stands out to you?” and not only grow myself but help others grow as well. "Here's the thing - leaving the kid's table isn't a one-time decision. It's a daily choice. And every day you choose to go deeper, I'll be right here with you."
