    104: The Liturgy of Life

    In this episode of the Monday Morning Podcast, we explore the importance of habits and life organization in shaping our spiritual lives. We discuss how subconscious routines reveal our true priorities and how intentional habits can form us into the image of Christ. We dive into practical theology, the teachings of the Bible, the influence of technology, and the cultivation of a godly character. Using real-life examples, we'll talk about how small, daily decisions can either lead us toward spiritual growth or draw us away from a life that glorifies God. Whether it's how we start our mornings, interact with colleagues, or respond to our children's behavior, we need to be aware of and intentional with our everyday actions. Discussion questions: What are the first 10 minutes of your day habitually doing to your soul? How is your daily, repeated work forming your loves? What does your phone ritual at night train you to love? When you step back and look at what your life is organized around, structured toward, and built on, what do you see? What rhythms are forming your spiritual and vocational life right now? What cultural liturgies have been shaping you more than the gospel?

    103: Identity, Calling, and Assignment

    In this episode of Monday Morning, Jake Ford and Pastor Andrew Lovette are joined by business coach Jacob Dyke, owner of Anchor Coaching, for a deep dive into the themes of identity, calling, and assignment, especially as they relate to faith and work. Together, they explore what it means to anchor your identity in Christ, how that foundation shapes your sense of purpose, and the practical outworking of calling in everyday life. Jacob shares his journey from teaching and coaching football to launching Anchor Coaching, where he helps Christian entrepreneurs find clarity and fulfillment in their work. Reflection & Discussion Questions: How do I know if I’m living in God’s will? Start with who you are, not what you're doing. Are you walking in obedience, faith, and love? How does knowing our identity change how we approach our calling and assignment? It brings freedom from performance, clarity amid confusion, and peace in every pivot. What do I do when the next step isn’t clear? James 1:5 – Ask for wisdom. Proverbs 3:5–6 – Trust the Lord, not your own understanding. Psalm 37:3–5 – Dwell, delight, and commit.

    102: Our Work as Worship

    In this episode of the Monday Morning, we dive deep into the connection between work and worship. Drawing from biblical passages, personal stories, and thought-provoking books, we'll explore how every aspect of our work life reflects what we truly value and worship. Our conversation unpacks the idea that we are always worshiping, whether we realize it or not, and encourages listeners to consider how their daily work can become an act of worship to God, rather than an idol or a source of anxiety. With practical insights and encouragement, this episode invites you to reframe your approach to work, find purpose in your vocation, and seek the Kingdom of God in all you do. Do I build my life on my work, or do I build my work on my life with God? (Identity → Purpose → Vocation)What does it practically mean to “seek first the kingdom” on a Monday morning? (ie, budgeting decisions, attitude in meetings, how you treat customers or coworkers)Where might my work be revealing false worship or misplaced loves?How does Sunday’s liturgy shape my Monday decisions? We become what we worship. And what we worship determines how we work. The kingdom of God isn’t just for Sundays—it’s for spreadsheets, studios, and soccer practices too. Worship precedes work.

    101: The Sunday-Monday Gap

    In this episode of Monday Morning, Jake Ford sits down with Pastor Ian and Pastor Andrew to dive into the gap many of us feel between our Sunday worship and our Monday work. Too often, we think of church life as “spiritual” and our daily jobs as “secular,” but what if Scripture calls us to something fuller? From Dorothy Sayers to Tim Keller, from electricians to entrepreneurs, the conversation unpacks why our work matters to God and how it can become an act of worship. Whether you are teaching a classroom, fixing a pipe, running a business, or raising kids at home, this episode is a reminder that whatever you do, do it unto the Lord. Reflective Questions for Listeners: How have I adopted a sacred/secular divide without realizing it? Where do I sense a disconnection between my Sunday worship and Monday work? What would it look like to see myself as a “minister” in my current role? Concrete Practices: Begin your workweek with prayer—dedicate it to the Lord.Ask: What does faithfulness look like today?Resources: Work Matters (Tom Nelson), Total Truth (Nancy Pearcey), or Every Good Endeavor (Timothy Keller).
