Lifework Podcast
The Lifework Podcast is where faith, purpose, and calling come together. Hosted by Williams Baptist University President Dr. Stan Norman, this podcast explores the theology of work and why it matters for every believer. At Williams, we believe education is more than a degree — it’s preparation for a Christ-centered life of influence and service.
Through thoughtful conversations with faculty, leaders, and friends of WBU, the Lifework Podcast unpacks how God designed us to find meaning in our work and live out our calling in every sphere of life. Our goal is to inspire and equip listeners to see their lifework not just as a career, but as a way to glorify God and impact the world.

In this New Year episode, Dr. Rhyne Putman and Dr. Stan Norman reflect on the joy of winter and the promise of new beginnings. They explore the concept of “calling,” starting with the most significant one: a primary calling to follow God. Drawing from Matthew 4 and broader biblical insights, they discuss how this foundational calling shapes a purposeful life and informs all other callings, such as vocation and relationships. If you’ve ever wondered about the deeper meaning behind the idea of calling or how to respond to God’s invitation, this episode provides thoughtful insights and encouragement.
